Are you sure? It seems to load fine for me:

Hm. Can’t get it to load more than the palette… Inserting and regular loading gives nothing but the palette, Importing gives an error…

[Here’s](https://youtu.be/3tTTIa4FzHo) a quick video I screen-recorded, not sure how esle I can help.

Weird. What app are you using? There was a mistake with the dimensions, which might cause the xy model to not load. I’ve [fixed that](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/44230457/sh/sheep_xy2.vox) in the meantime. If that file doesn’t load, then I don’t know. As far as I can tell, I’m pretty much writing proper .vox files by now (at least sheep.vox and sheep\_xy2.vox).

The app is called [VoxelMaker, it’s ~$5 on google play](https://www.google.se/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details%3Fid%3Dcom.NostaticSoftware.VoxelMaker%26hl%3Den%26referrer%3Dutm_source%253Dgoogle%2526utm_medium%253Dorganic%2526utm_term%253Dvoxelmaker%26pcampaignid%3DAPPU_1_OWKTV92OAeWU6ATF65DwAg&ved=0ahUKEwidj4qsyonOAhVlCpoKHcU1BC4Q5YQBCCUwAA&usg=AFQjCNEdTedv-ygxCjNGZcWWw7N-FpmfEQ), it’s on Wii U Store as well, but I’m not sure about app store.

Hooray! The sheep loads in, feet on ground!

So sheep\_xy2.vox worked for you? If that’s the case, [here’s the program.](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/44230457/sh/Batchicle.zip). Requires .NET 4.5. You should be able to drag-and-drop a folder onto the .exe and it will convert all .qb inside that folder (recursively) and put them all into a folder called ‘batchicle\_out’. If you don’t drag anything, it’ll convert all .qb in the same folder as the.exe (working directory).

I hope that it should be able to do all .qbs properly now, there had been some minor issues with some of the matrix merging.

Thank you for everything! I can’t really try it out until monday, but I’ll come back to you then!

One more thing; if it isn’t too much trouble, do you think that maybe you could convert a couple of the ascendacy profession models and send them? It’d give me something to work with until I can convert all of the models. If it’s an inconvenience, please don’t feel forced to.

Either way, thanks again, thank you for everything, you’re amazing and insanely helpful!

Sorry, as those are Radiant’s, I don’t feel comfortable sharing them, even if they’re converted.

Wow, that was fast. For some reason, I expected the program to take a couple of minutes, but I suppose the .qb files are a lot smaller than I thought.

Well, to be fair, I did tell it to use as many threads (i.e. cores/processors) as there are available, which might not be the _best_ strategy, but good enough. In the end, there was no heavy calculation involved, just a bunch of bytes being shoved around.
