Ah, thats your problem. The box is only info what to do. Click OK and then do the left or right mouse click on the bone of your choice.

I click the bone I want to attach to, and nothing happens as far as I can tell. What does it do when it works? Ive right left clicked all over trying to get it to give me some indication that it's working. I've attempted to do this with the weapon chosen, all sorts of different things. That garbled message I mention appears after I click ok on the instruction box that says click right or left on the bone to attach. The garbled message stays there (in the upper left corner of the model viewer) no matter where I click or what I do until I hit escape, then disappears. Other than that I can't see any problems, no crash, no issues.

This is how it works usually for me:

Click the button and the window appears,...

... then I confirm it and the window disappears...

...and at last I click on some bone and the weapon is bounded to it.

You've solved my problem in a way Kaldy, because you showed me I was doing the correct procedure. My problem was due to the use of AntiAliasing and/or Anisotropic filtering through forced driver settings. Probably shoulda figured that out like 2 days ago... I still get the garbled message in the corner, but the feature works as intended now. Tyvm screenshots.

Edit: After testing Kimera doesn't like Supersampling. I can use AA and anisotropic filtering, but AA must be adaptive multisampling or just multisampling. This is on my poor little ATI HD6850

Hey, need help please . . .
When i open kimera and choose open model i get
"Title -- Unknown error loading  //  Msg -- error 32765"

If i drag and drop the P file onto it it says
"Title -- Error reading  //  Msg --Error reading P file blah blah"

Is there a problem or am i overlooking something stupid?
Thanks

Thanks alot mate that actually worked!!  ;D ah finally
You should try that too if you got the same problem, thanks again :)

Would still be nice if Borde could make this fully compatible with Windows 8 if it's possible and just open up the program and use it like normal but for now it seems gonna have to always drag the p file on top of Kimera, but only in the the older 0.95b one you provided tried in the newer original ones same problem
wow i didnt expect that lol, i error when i do that?? What did you use to extract the LPG?

I use Aali LGP/ULG with .bat files to extract and put em back together again make sure to drag only one file of lgp the top one like Cloud model only drag ove the icon of Kimera Rtaa not the others along with it
Everything worked fine until i got to pressing 'Save Model'
Img removed

If your on win8 just press the Windows key + prnt screen and it will be saved to your screenshot folder in Picture folder or you can use Snipping tool, or just prnt screen then paste on Paint save it
I upload it on imgur here:
http://imgur.com/ then on the right where it says link for (message boards) just copy and paste that here

Yeah that's the 095 shadow1918 gave me afterwards which works if i drag a P file to open it but can't save or use it as normal so that's no good and i previously also used the updated Kimera 096 and 097 and i get that problem which i had from the start .. think it's something to do with Windows8

Finally got it working!
Solution:
Get the latest Kimera
Inside it you will see a file called MSSTDFMT.DLL.
Copy it to system32, open command prompt as admin. type regsvr32 followed by the .dll file name
You'l get a succeed popup now open up Kimera and use it as normal :)

You need to have all the .dll files that are in the kimera folder registered in the system32 file. If you're having trouble google regsvr32 to get more info on how to use it. Make sure it's the latest version of Kimera, and that you're opening the command prompt as administrator.

Did you run the Command Prompt as admin? Then type it exactly like this
regsvr32 MSSTDFMT.DLL.
Then press enter and see if it worked or maybe your on 64bit? I tried this on a 32bit

Try this maybe
regsvr64 MSSTDFMT.DLL.
make sure to put that (.) at the end of .DLL. aswell

When i open kimera and choose open model i get
"Title -- Unknown error loading  //  Msg -- error 32765"

If i drag and drop the P file onto it it says
"Title -- Error reading  //  Msg --Error reading P file blah blah"
just realised after reading your problem from before i don't think it has to do with the file im telling you to place this problem's different to mine, sorry mate not sure how to fix that :/
in 64bit is there a system64 folder? if so try it there if you want aswell but doubt that will fix it
