I know there are scattered questions answered in the forums about XSI, but I wondered if there is a compiled FAQ somewhere specificaly to address HL models. An example of the questions I am looking for is: "How do I import and export a SMD reference that will compile with proper bone names?"

...stuff like that.

posts like this are sometimes usefull, sometimes discouraging:

but I am looking for more like a one stop shop for questions specificaly ones that get asked AFTER the tuts are read.
