Importing attachments from SMF 2

Hello,
I am trying to bring over all the content from a Simple Machines version 2 forum over to Vanilla (latest version). I ran the tool to create the export file, and was able to bring it into Vanilla, but all of the image and other attachments are missing. I did see that the GDN_Media database table does have all the items in there, and I wrote a script to convert SMF's naming of the files to the actual filenames they show in the database, and put that folder in the uploads folder prior to importing the data into Vanilla, but no love.
The text of all the messages did come over (although I see a lot of HTML tags that should not be displayed as such, like <br>s, etc...), so I know it was successful.
Is there a way to do this?
Bob

Which editor is enabled? I believe you actually need to enable an editor that supports file uploads for attachments to be displayed.
