Oh please, can you tell me what program do you use for poly reduction? Blender is not working anymore (for unknow reason).

Blender is actually the one I use :P. By not working anymore, do you mean it worked for you then stopped working?
TheDoctor

Yes, but the higher the poly count, the better the look

Actually I mean when I open Blender, the interface is all screwed up and all the text is invisible.

Oh, thats odd. Well if you need any models' polycount reduced, you could send me a copy of it and I'll reduce it for ya.

Well, all this is sort of off-topic, but sort of on-topic.
You say you use FragMotion to rig the models and do skeletal animation with them before exporting them as .md2.
And FragMotion supports the .smd format, which Blender (with a plugin called Blender Source Tools) also does.
I'd prefer to both model and animate in Blender (well, edit a model in Blender, and animate it in another program).
Do you know if it's possible to load a mesh, then load an animation for it, and then export it as .md2?
I'm still quite new to this FragMotion thing, so I'd like to know before I start animating outside FragMotion just to find it being impossible to import the animation...

Tails and Sonic's model are small for some reason.

Hey, that's my job! Well, if you mean Classic Sonic from Sonic Generations, that is. If you do, then that's my job. But he hasn't replied to my question(s?) yet, so I haven't started. Edit: Plus I'll probably get beat to it, since I work slowly when I spend most of the time playing SRB2. And I don't mind someone else doing it, either. :P

So you mean the Modern Sonic he already has? "Sonic Next Gen" is not very specific...

That was actually what I thought of "Sonic Next Gen" as, but I also thought it couldn't be that, since everyone seems to think it's the worst official Sonic game that has been made. What's bad about sneaking through loops?
Offtopic: It was buggy, I know, but the story had a lot of potential. If it was redone, and also available on computer via Steam, I'd play it, even though I beat it on PlayStation 3 already. At least if there was a demo so I'd know if my computer could handle it (Sonic Generations lags on my computer).
Ontopic: Well, alright, if you would want it, then sure. I just know I won't make it, and I also know the Models Resource (major, known site for model rips from games) derped out a week or so ago. I don't think a lot of people have that model of Sonic on their computer. I should shut up. *Derp*
