Unexpected Model Orientation in VMF Exporter

Fixed in WWMT 1.772

Posted by Shawn on Mar 31, 2012 | Last Updated Mar 31, 2012

The orientation of models in the QC Generator has been flipped on the Z-axis and the VMF Exporter is also rotated to accomodate this result. You may need to recompile models compiled before the 1.772 update.
