  Bug in Version 0.1 of the Tools (version 0.4 of the OBJ2Creature import script): In the section labeled "EdgeConnectivity", a line is missing. Directly after the line
[entryCount = CSK_FACE_COUNT*3]
  should be the line:
[ scratchvalue += struct.pack( '<i', entryCount) ]
  So, the section should look like this:

...
###+4 for count number which is part of the section size
scratchvalue += struct.pack( '<i', (((CSK_FACE_COUNT*3)*16)+4) )

entryCount = CSK_FACE_COUNT*3
scratchvalue += struct.pack( '<i', entryCount)

i = 0
while i < entryCount:
...

   I should have mentioned, also, that I don't currently have a coherent way to adjust the hair. Hair will not correctly track mesh modifications. I know technically how to edit the hair, but if it is to be done, some method of doing it in 3D programs like Blender/3DS Max will have to be devised. It would likely require a custom plugin or a clever use of grouping for a particular file format.
