What opens an mdl file for editing?

Postby idahosurge » Sun Jan 06, 2008 4:26 pm

Hello, the topic pretty much says it all, what do I need to open an mdl file so I can compare two different files?

Regards,

Technically, you can open any file with a hex editor and compare them.  

HOWEVER, opening mdl files can be hazardous to the model.  Not all mdl files are made alike.

Not to mention that it's tantamount to piracy of someone else's work...
