Issue when importing SMD models

So I have SMD models that were previously BMD and I had used this converter: https://github.com/TARNATlON/bmdsmdconvert but everytime I attempt to load it in, I get this response.

Python: Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.5\scripts\addons\io_scene_valvesource\import_smd.py", line 80, in execute
self.num_files_imported = self.readSMD(filepath, self.properties.upAxis, self.properties.rotMode)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.5\scripts\addons\io_scene_valvesource\import_smd.py", line 1223, in readSMD
if line == "skeleton\n": self.readFrames()
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
File "C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.5\scripts\addons\io_scene_valvesource\import_smd.py", line 391, in readFrames
rot = Euler([float(values[4]), float(values[5]), float(values[6])])
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
ValueError: could not convert string to float: '�'

Note: it had worked before on 3.3 but doesnt now here are the lines for each error

line 80: self.num_files_imported = self.readSMD(filepath, self.properties.upAxis, self.properties.rotMode)

line 1223: if line == "skeleton\n": self.readFrames()

line 391: rot = Euler([float(values[4]), float(values[5]), float(values[6])])

Open smd file in text editor and see if there are some anomalies

find one smd that works. Open it in text editor. The format structure is simple you would probably figure it out by just reading it.

This one expects numbers but it gets not a number

They all had worked before then i paused for a short while and they no longer work. this is the same blender version
