blender importer?

Hi, I’m on a mac and I looking to muck about with some of of the bm character models in blender . I have a source engine add on installed which can import (.smd, .vta, .dmx and .qc) files but as they don’t work with the actual game files it isn’t going to cut it. So my question is; how would I go about importing the actual game models and textures into blender? Is there is a add on/converter that works?

Edit: I know garrysmod.org has a couple, but I don’t own garry’s mod right now am not ready to put the money in for a couple of models.

Wasnt there already a plugin for that?

If there is I haven’t found it yet…

Someone on YouTube imported TF2 models intro blender, and didnt use the models from ModDB.

Thank you for the good information…Thanks for sharing…

you have decompile the model files first, then you can import them into blender and reexport htem again.

Decompile and use this
