Before exporting to 'falcoint.mdl'...

After exporting...

How do I solve this?

MilkShape Version: 1.8.0 Trial Version (If I use 1.8.4, it says that my trial has expired)

Did you try 1.8.3?

are you applying a colour to the faces rather than mapping a texture to them?

Those are mapped textures

You know the trial is only a trial right?

My latest effort:

However, when I view it in a private server the materials get jumbled up:

Why is this so?

Total materials used: 7

Total Groups: 23

I will tell you why.

The allegiance exporter doesn't care about which materials are assigned to which portions of the model. It cares about the order.

So if the mdl_X groups are ordered like this:
mdl_1
mdl_2
mdl_3

and you have the textures ordered like this:
texture_2
texture_1
texture_3

then mdl_1 will have texture_2 regardless of what it is actually assigned for.

I recommend that you shrink it down to one texture, or failing that, shrink it down to one mdl group per texture, in the proper order

Took Andons advice... problem fixed!

Case closed
