Hello, this is my first time posting on the forums so i apologize if this is the wrong forum section.
I'm trying to downport NPC models from 7.3 (and higher) to 7.2.5, i'm able to get them to 7.2.5 but the problem is weird stretching as you can see on the screenshot. Is there a way to fix it? I tried weight painting in blender and all sorts of scripts in 010 editor but none of them fixes it. Can anyone link me a tutorial on how to do it or explain it here?

Perhaps those vertices just aren't linked to the right bones? You can do that in blender

Select the needed vertex and then

For easiness I suggest importing the original (unconverted) model to blender in order to look up which bones with which values are used

It's working, but there should be a more efficient way of doing this because the amount of vertices that are assigned to a different bone is insane.

Have you tried, instead of converting directly 7.3->7.2, to import the 7.3 into blender, and then export from blender in the 7.2 format (I mean import/export through m2i, obviously)? That way vertices should keep the assigned bones, weights, etc.

I just tried it and the result it this. The model is "floating" and flopping if you know what i mean.

Import all .anim and .bone file of the model. Put SET M2UseLOD "0" in your config.wtf file for the first version of the model you downported. If that doesn t work I have other soluce
