What to edit .model files with

Hey all,

What are you guys using to edit .model files? Trying to edit an item for a cyberface that is a .model. For the life of me, cannot find anything that can open it properly, thanks.

You need the blender plugin to import 2K models. I've linked below a Blender zip with the plugin pre-installed, credits to JMO for putting this together.

Once you open blender, go to Preferences > Add-Ons and enable the 2Kpy plugin, and you'll be ready to go. Here's a tutorial to help get you started.

Essentially it all boils down to dragging all the files from inside the png of the CF into a folder, and importing the hihead.SCNE from the import panel shown in the video. TG has a fix if it won't import before the timestamp attached to the video. Hope this helps.

I’ll give it a try, thanks so much!
