Have fun with all those doubles and separated triangles then.

Or, you can just update BleST. https://github.com/Artfunkel/BlenderSourceTools

Good suggestion, but...

I thought that was what the Check For Update button was suppose to do in the BleST add-on.

And what the http://steamreview.org/BlenderSourceTools/ were for. (Which currently has 2.9.1 posted as the stable (and is the version I currently have))

Normal users would not go looking for Artfunkel's gitHub files. Most would get lost in trying to figure out just what to download.

And as 2.79a has just been released and the problem just reported, I wouldn't go there anyway.
I doubt Artfunkel has had a chance to even look at this yet. The last commit to his gitHub was a month ago and looking at the notes, those changes won't be released until 2.10 is baked.

You can roll the Steam version back to 2.79 using the Betas tab. That option wasn't available to me earlier.

Preserve Polygon and normals are unchecked in both the SMD and DMX imports

Wondering if I am doing something wrong.

(sorry Artfunkel, I meant to post this to the bugs report area)

Blender 2.79a and BleST 2.9.1 aren't playing well together. Clicking Check for updates in the tool tells me I'm using the most current BleST)

In these gifs, I am using the Valve Demoman SMD and LowMorph DMX files from the SDK Content.

SMD import with missing faces the the DMX seems a lot sharper then I'm use to (I usually have to add edge split modifiers to sharpen things up.

Do we have a problem?

Removing doubles can sometimes be a bad thing when working with these models. Especially in the objects where VTAs are applied. Hmmm.. I've downloaded the master, but haven't had a chance to work with it yet (so I shouldn't really be responding yet), but I thought I'd throw that out there.

What version of Blender Source Tools are you using in 2.76? Although the newest version says it works in Blender 2.74 or later, go here and try earlier versions. http://steamreview.org/BlenderSourceTools/archives/
But before you do that, go to the UserPref addons screen, filter for Blender Source tools and make sure you have the add on checked on. If the addon is greyed out and there isn't a check mark in the check box, it's off and will not display.

Proper way to install Blender Source tools...

Ahhh, I had just uninstalled that the other day. I'm trying to "centralize" everything so I don't have so many duplicate assets across computers.

I'd like to know the answer as well and as you have the BleST author assisting, I'm just going to watch this one.

I don't see Studiomdl listed anywhere in the L4D2 folder structures, so I'm lost here. Using Blender 2.78c-BleST 2.9.1.

My DMX model selection is the same, Bin1 thru 5 and then 9.
