Re: some problem for .model.req
You have no req for that unit
copy someone elses (like the trooper's) and change it from ***_inf_rifleman to your unit's name

It's probably a bad model or a bad munge of the model. I would reexport the model.

Go into Data_ABC/_BUILD/Sides/ABC/Munged/PC
Then find the rep_inf_mas.model.req file, and another such files associated with the the model, and delete them, re-munge.

Re: some problem for .model.req
That hierarchy is totally wrong.. Export an unit (and any other mesh, this is just with bones) as following:
1.DummyRoot - Meshes and Shadovolumes - (Under main mesh) bone_root
2.Branch (middle mouse) select the bone_root and hide it, otherwise you'll see the boneroot ingame
3.Branch select the DummyRoot
4.Export with 'Export Selected Models Only', 'Export Textures' with texture type is 'TARGA' and 'Ignore Warnings'
5.When you can't export with the addon, let someone else do it. File>CrossWalk>Export and then XSI Text v5, or summin like that, i don't have xsi 6
Maybe this should be stickied before more ask.
Any mesh should be child of DummyRoot, which is a null. Always export a mesh as above, with or without bones, animations are a different type, but the above is ALWAYS correct for normal meshes

J*Edit could it be because i replaced the textureoveride w/ my meash and named it the same
Please use .jpgs, if possible. PNGs aren't necessary for normal screenshots and they slow down the page loading. Thanks -Staff

Re: some problem for .model.req
I'm going to take a wild guess and say you used RepSharpshooter's MshEx to convert it to msh.

Re: some problem for .model.req
The name doesn't matter at all, you must envelope the mesh to the bone_...s and eff_...s.. That's the rule! And hide your hp_weapons btw 
Edit: Ace, good point.. Won't MeshEx crash though, when exporting envelopes? Or will it just ignore them?

MshEx won't do player models.

If you get the heirarchy set up properly, send it to me and I'll export it

I guess we're done here.......*locked*
I hope that isn't a ripped model from Halo, if it is then don't bring it to Gametoast.
