Besides, I would not consider switching unless I find something I cannot possibly do in Milkshape.

Realistic rendering? Sculpting? Particle systems?

Uh I am?
EDIT: I caught it saying something about usage:

[Kingdaro]

you have to export an .obj from another program, then drag it over the blbConverter.exe

Then what?

[Demian]

Then what?

A BLB file pops out.

[padmedog]

A BLB file pops out.

A BLB file pops out where?
The blbconverter folder, the place where I converted the .obj?
Agh nvm

In the same folder where the OBJ file is.

Step 1: Find obj.
Step 2: Grab obj.
Step 3: Drag DIRECTLY onto the program.
Step 4: Find original location of obj.
Step 5: Blb is there.

- Put the converter in your Users/username/Documents

- Get an .obj and drag it onto the .exe.

- Once the process is finished, it will be put in your Documents folder, with the extension .blb, and will be put in alphabetical order.

Would it be possible to make doors with this, considering it's just a group of blbs? If so, where would I put the bounds and collision for the CW & CCW model?

Yes, you can make doors with this converter. Each state of the door is a different blb, so all you have to do is model and export each state. Collision boxes should be put where the parts are. If you are making a door with a frame, you'll need 5 boxes, one for the door and 4 for the frame.

What about the BOUNDS box? Just put it where the closed part of the door would be in each blb?
