I got an opengl project i'm working on and a 3d model from Milkshape and I'm trying to combine those 2 together. I've tried a lot of ways to import the model into my code without success.
I want to be able to see the model in my C# proj and control a few animations.
here is the code and the model if anyone wants to take a look

Thanks.

From my understanding OpenGL is a fairly young project and some of its capabilities are fairly limited. I'm actually currently working on a similar project using a software called "Navisworks" to view a 3D building model in a web application. When Navisworks is installed it gives you the ability to use an ActiveX control embedded into a page in order to view a model directly in the webpage. This ActiveX control gives you the ability to move, inspect, and manipulate the model. You should look around and see if there is something similar offered by OpenGL.

Here's what I found:

Loading and rendering Milkshape 3d models with animation and skinning - CodeProject

You may find that helpful. It seems that there are a lot of other people asking the same question as you. You should be able to follow that example on codeproject and have it point you in the right direction. Let me know if you have any more questions.
