Hi guys, I got an error when I try to convert *.skeleton file to *.xml using OgreXMLConverter. The picture below will display the error that I got in. Does any one know how to solve that problem, so I can use the tool for converting skeleton file >256 bones. And I am using the version 13 rightnow, but When I export mesh file from the tool, that version header was v_1.100, my application cannot load that version, so how can I export the mesh file with v_1.40 or v_1.30 like the old version can does...

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
reminds me of this one: viewtopic.php?f=1&p=552121
header v_1.100 means Ogre 1.10+. If you use an older version in the engine, you can downgrade with OgreMeshUpgrader -V
.

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
So I am not sure what is the version of my game engine using right now, but I was looked at all the mesh and skeleton files, the header was display v1.10 - v1.40, and the binary structure look totaly different from the v1.100. So like you said I can use the OgreMeshUpgrader to downgrate the version, but will the binary structure will be the same as the v1.100 had?

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
that flag will use the Serializer for the chosen version - it does not merely change the header.

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
So I already got It. I am still have 1 issue about using OgreXMLConverter to convert skeleton with over 256 bones. I tried to change the number of bones from 256 to 4096, but It still did not work and display the error message: 12:25:39: Error: handle < OGRE_MAX_NUM_BONES failed. Exceeded the maximum number of bones per skeleton. So do you have any solution for this one.

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
you should be able to just remove these assertions without getting any crashes.

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
I already did like you said. I did remove that line out, but I still got this error message: 19:50:13: Error: A bone with the handle 41943 already exists
so what I need to do for that?

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
It sounds like the mesh file is corrupted or invalid (i.e. not a standard Ogre mesh) because having +41943 bones is extremely rare and the fact that it's referenced more than once is not valid.

Re: OgreXMLConverter error with skeleton over 256 bones
I don't know what exactly the structure in the skeleton is, but the game engines of that game I have in hand was built in Ogre3d or maybe the factory re-coding the lib so that they can load in a different way?
