Body Part (.dfm) Importer

hey all, ive recently had an idea about mucking with the bodies and animation of the character of freelancer (trent, juni, tobias etc), and i was wondering, is there a program to open .dfm files, or a plugin for milkshape etc?

just wondering...

no - you can change the skin but that's it

why:
.dfm's are built completely different from normal FL models which we can import/export - DFM's use weighted meshes,joint maps and skeletons - none of which can be edited without fancy software(including an importer/exporter)

the freeworlds mod has 'edited' costumes,but they're really the same bodies w/ new skins & accessories(such as head tendrils for the twi'leks) - there is a tutorial in tutorials if you're interested in how that was done
