Blender .MLX import script modifications help

[LadyAnn]

Hello everyone. I want to know if I could get help with altering a Python import script for .MLX files for blender? I am part of a mod team working on a mod and we have nothing that can open the .MLX files we need to bring into blender to alter them. we have a script meant to open a larger MLX file of the same type but for some reason when it tries to open the smaller 32 byte MLX the script fails. would anyone be willing to extend a helping hand?

I will include the import script in an rar file as well as two example MLX, my team and I would be eternally grateful for any help.


MLX files (The SMG and HMG and LMG are best example files)
