Funny, each time I asked a question, it was answered immediately next by the next part.

This is alot to read.

You should add "Everything you need to know about modeling" too, I for one would benefit greatly from it

Okay, now I have a models folder and a materials folder. Where do I place them? I have gmod10.

Copy/Paste them into your second garrysmod folder, C:/Program Files/Steam/Steamapps/*account name*/garrysmod/garrysmod. Anyone know where I can find the headcrab vmt's? I'm doing a little hex and I need the file.

Heya all I have hexed my skin and that works fine and it spawns ok, but when I do spawn it it comes up with those damned purple and black squares. Any help please?

Man, who have time to read all that shit?

how old are you?

it isnt works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guys keep in mind this is for GM9 and I don't know about it a lot anymore, lol. [QUOTE=Thlis]How would one edit a skin from the material/model folder of a download?[/QUOTE] With an editing program why not, those that do not have models might replace your original skin and you'll have to follow the steps to hex it according to you needs. [QUOTE=ovzer]Please! I Got to know this! How do I make a new texture on a model that I can spawn in g mod [b](with skinning)[/b] without replacing the old model texture?[/QUOTE] Making a new texture it's pretty simple, just renaming a texture makes it new, heh. In order to get that to work separately though, you need to edit the model with GFScape and re-root it to it, sounds tricky but it's easy.

cool

Wow, greatest tutorial I've ever seen in one post. You man earn a Best Employee of the millenium award.

i was wondering where the fuck this thread was

Thanks i use half-life 2 model viewer!

2 links don't work!! help please repair them because i wanna do skin's

Lol this may piss everyone off but you kinda cut it short, you went from what you need to installation, you're thread is helpful but I want to know like, I have GIMP I opened odessa and just changed the color of his clothes, I saved it as a TGA. What do I do next? O and could you please tell me exactly what folders to make and where to put them? I think I can get it stickied if you help me...lol [b]Edit:[/b] Wait a minute... THIS ISNT FOR GMOD 10??? well then this is completely useless...(sighs)

Really useful thread. Thanks a lot.

Gimp won't run photoshop plugins? BLASPHEMY! [url]http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/gimp-pspi-1.0.3.zip[/url] Extract to your gimp folder. This will let you use Photoshop plugins... [quote]For using Photoshop-plugins in GIMP the pspi.exe plugin for Windows has been created. you install this by extracting it to your GIMP installation directory (it will place itself to the lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins folder). After a restart of GIMP the Xtns-menu of GIMP's main window got a new item called Photoshop Plug-in Settings. When you click on it you can set a path to where your Photoshop-plugins are stored. GIMP will load the filters that are found in that folder at startup. These filters are added to GIMP's Filters menu.[/quote]
