I don't know English, and even then... it takes no more than 2 hours to download and install the programs. Apart from some mistake due to not paying attention, I would have managed to import models very, very, very fast. I've been working on modding for years. I've realized that it's more difficult to import models than to model them from scratch??? Only someone who doesn't know 3D can say that, hahaha. Thanks, Zahar, for everything. But you still have another request waiting on Telegram: D, sorryyyyy

P.S.: I mean importing models with Maya 2009 and Maya 6, as Zahar explains.
I already make models from scratch in ZBrush, and it's really easier than dealing with all the hassle just for MMH5, like modeling and then accepting it. When I tried to adapt a model from Heroes 7 (it was a kobold) to Zahar's tutorial, I spent 7 hours just on the 3D Max step. When I tried to install and activate Maya 2009 and failed, I asked myself, "Why? Why am I doing this? If this feature takes so much time and effort, I'm not sure I'll live to see the end of the mod's creation. I'll just become a mummy, importing 200+ creatures and 600 items."

What is meant by "creating from scratch"? Animations? If so, I can help find free models that might fit into the world of Heroes. :)

The thing is, the models aren't really needed. Creating a model of average quality takes 2-3 hours. Making animations isn't very time-consuming either. But when importing, I spend that time just trying to understand what's happening. Clicking on these small buttons. If you accidentally touch something with your finger, you have to start all over again. Max also freezes constantly. It would be great to write a program that would automate this process, but I don't have enough knowledge to write it yet. No matter how great NCF looks, I'm not ready to spend the rest of my life polishing it.
As soon as the files are uploaded to the cloud, I'll post a link with the results of my work – maybe you'll find something interesting there.

If importing isn't a difficult task for someone, I can offer to work together – I provide the models, and another person moves them.
