Mesh conversion problem

from Sins Forums
Hi im new to using XSI (only downloaded the mod tool version a few days ago. Ive manadged to make a basic model that im trying to get into SoaSE just to learn the processes involved for when i start making good models. but i keep hitting a problem, when i use convertXSI it wont produce a mesh from the .XSI (makes the mesh file but it doesnt contain my model)

Heres what the comand promt window says

Ignoring unknown meterial type<24>: Defultlib.ship
Valid meterial not found for Polygonlist: Defultlib.ship
Bounding information calculated - Radious:-1.00
Optimizing...
Pre-Optimization Vertex count = 0
Post-Optimization Vertex count = 0

Im assuming that it doesnt like the meterial or something like that. i havent changed the meterial settings in XSI from the defult other than adding a basic texture (the "no image" colour blocks with numbers one)

Any help would be greatly apprecaited
Thanks in advance

its not a file format that's part of the XSI model. it says .ship because i changed the name of the material from "material" to "ship" in XSI to test if it was something to do with the material

ok found out what it was you have to use XSI version 3.6 for the converter to work, cant believe it was that simple.
