Maybe you should follow Kotcrab's tip:
Kotcrab wrote:If you want textures automatically loaded in Noesis you just need to open .mdl file from original extract directory without renaming or moving anything.
:( I have no clue, I haven't moved or renamed anything. If I could just convert the texture files, then that would be fine, i'll just manually reapply the textures, but I can't get some of these converted.

Using the py script from Kotcrab's Noesis MDL loader v1.2? Couldn't test it with mxt (or gxt?) textures, because I don't have those files.
My post as of Sep. 26th based on use of pngs.

Here is what I am working with, I've included the fbx, gxt, and the tool I've tried to convert it with.

yeah, GXTConvert.exe throws an exception: Index out of bounds; Noesis says: "GXT is corrupted".

"Your" gtx headers are different from the ones handled by Noesis so far.

(The words at offsets 0x38 and 0x3A should be image width and height.)

Guess, we should leave this case to AceWell. 8)

There are just slight changes. I made a dirty fix to make it work with your static mesh samples. Skeleton is loaded too, but no skinning. Weights/bone ids are in the last 8 bytes of the vertex buffer, but there might be a need for remapping, so I left it for now.

Also not sure if that monster should look like that, or if some meshes are not getting loaded.

I have attached a new script. It is mostly about looking at different vertex buffer types, and changing the "Dx11Impl" accordingly. I won't continue with this, someone who has all the game files can do it properly.

Bone weights working for the character parts too. Still like I said there might be other vertex variations, so don't expect it to work with everything.
