you don't need to use OPs to import parts if you have OL Tools and AC3D.All you have to do is extract the SM file using OL Tools and that will get you to all the LODs in the plane. Then you just need to import and export parts to these LODs you need (theres an html file that tells you want all the parts are) and then just rebuild the SM with the new parts in and open it in OPS to make sure it's all there.
I don't move parts with OPS, i use AC3D to move the parts and rebuild the SM and look at itin OPS. This takes a little longer but you don't screw up the FM and all you have to do is fix the body pts.
