My ash model is failing.

[louie123]

I can't move the model with the phys gun at all.
Not only that the model is stuck in the air.

Please put your QC in [noparse]

[/noparse] tags, it makes it easier to look at, meaning easier to fix any issues.

[louie123]

alright

[CGHippo]

I truly can't wait to see this in game. Will it be a playermodel or just a ragdoll?

[Hunter-AP]

Wait, did you accidentally pick Ash up with the Physgun, then freeze one of his bones?

I'm wondering why my model is doing this.

[Ferdam]

It seems you are not setting a mass value to the collisonjoints :

$CollisionJoints "ash1_physics.smd"
{
	$mass 0 

try

$CollisionJoints "ash1_physics.smd"
{
	$mass 90 

[louie123]

thats a little better this happens. How ever i can't select parts of the model like the original smd on the dmx model.
[video]https://youtu.be/bAWH0454Mjw[/video]
[video]https://youtu.be/QiCbaiuIa-s[/video]

[Ferdam]

The model on left (the second one you spawned - smaller also) on the first video appears to be working fine. What's wrong with it exactly ? I couldn't notice.

[QUOTE=ferdam;48439030]The model on left (the second one you spawned - smaller also) on the first video appears to be working fine. What's wrong with it exactly ? I couldn't notice.[/QUOTE] smaller model is the orignal but i want to get the dmx model the same size as the smd model. How ever on the dmx model it's not letting select the bones like on the smd.

[editline]11th August 2015[/editline]

When i convert my model to an dmx it looks horrible.

My original model using smd
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/tE7OBkp.jpg[/IMG]

Using dmx I can't believe the dmx format lost to an old format like smd

Well, from what I know, rescaling directly in QC is something that works inconsistently, it usually fuck up the bones and ragdolls. If you really need to rescale the model I'd recommend you to try doing that in a software like 3ds max, blender, maya, or whatever you prefer.

Edit:

Also, I dont get it, why are you trying to compile it using a DMX while you know that SMD works fine ?

Edit: i will try your advice the reason i want to use dmx because it can export face expressions easily

I will try your advice. The reason i want to use the dmx format because it can export facial expressions easily.How ever when it comes to making the facial expressions for an smd file i don't know how to work with the vta file.

[editline]11th August 2015[/editline]

i found out whats causing the model to give me a hard time it's yusei_anims\ragdoll.smd .
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/5oBfKIW.jpg[/IMG]
I think i might have to use the reference model might as well give it a try

[editline]11th August 2015[/editline]

I got the dmx model working now i can move his bones and everything :D . Not only that he's back to his normal size Solution copy reference model into yusei_anims.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/NvkFSd2.jpg[/IMG] thanks for helping me you guys
The last thing that needs to be fixed is this
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6buaphk.jpg[/IMG] How ever this still happens when i kill ash he goes back to his normal size.

i got the model working this what i did i made the player model and npc as an smd and i only kept the ragdoll as a dmx.Problem solved. Does anybody know how to make this thread marked solved.
