I tried to edit

sword verticies but when i replace the model with dasdonkey vertex box and preview it in Brawl Box all thats there is the bones no texture no polygons plus there are no bones in the left of panel but bones are showing up in the preview. any idea of what happened?
i also get a Errorjava.io.Eofexception when inserting the vertex in to a mdl0 but it allows me to go through and insert the vertices
and I get an ignorable error before previewing the model.
Im not sure if could be the problem but i skipped the converting to a obj file using anim8or because I have a program that lets me edit the 3ds file and its a lot easier than doing it in blender, but nothing went wrong there.
can someone help me because i don't know what could be causing this.
