I've actually been trying to get this going for like, a year myself. Ironically looks like the AA characters, which is what I was hoping for especially, are a lot of the ones I can't import.
I second the animation part too, been hoping to import both into 3DS Max similar to how MT Framework* does so for Capcom models+anims, or to convert them with something like you've made with Metanoia. Any ideas as to why multiple models from the same game are structured so differently?
