Even if I had it, I still couldnt model I thing. I just fail in everything related to art, so no luck in modelling. My life is sad.
[QUOTE=Zero_;31924138]Even if I had it, I still couldnt model I thing. I just fail in everything related to art, so no luck in modelling. My life is sad.[/QUOTE] Not everyone can do it. It takes just as much effort for making a model as it would just about any other advanced job. It's okay if that's not your thing; the Emporium isn't just for mods, it's for mod reviews and criticism as well.
Trying to make a model to export to Source using Blender 2.59 and SMD Import/Export plugin. Been breaking my head to export it properly with textures, I can model them and make the .qcs, etc. But I can't figure out how to export it with textures, they always end up as the infamous purple checkerboard. Any help, please? I could use a hand on which filetype to use for the UVs when inside Blender and how to make them actually appear on the final model.

Wasn't happy with the stake so I added a bunch of detail. I think I'm going to call this done. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22376999/stake7.png[/img]
[QUOTE=Sgt. Lulz;31924251]Repost due to last post of the page.[/QUOTE] Are you assigning a material to the mesh in blender?
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;31922426]Pipboy update released.[/QUOTE] is it the same dl link or what [b]edit[/b] that was a joke wasnt it
[QUOTE=Jacen;31924353]Are you assigning a material to the mesh in blender?[/QUOTE] A MATERIAL or a TEXTURE? I'm assigning a texture and putting the UV i made in.
No, not a texture. You have to go to the object properties and assign a material to the mesh. then the vmt HAS to be the same as the material name.
[QUOTE=Sgt. Lulz;31924399]A MATERIAL or a TEXTURE? I'm assigning a texture and putting the UV i made in.[/QUOTE] assign the model to the .vmt add a $basetexture (is that what it is? I forget something like that) and then path to the vtf then fill the .vmt with your information stuffs like phong and alpha and shiz
All these anti-vampire weapons are great, someone should make a Jarate replacement that's a bottle of holy water.

Waiting for my Steak Stake to get done being textured, then it's being sent in for the Halloween update. I had an offer to texture the Westerly Wagon Wheel (but didn't get an invite on steam) so that's going to remain unfinished until it gets a better texture. The handyman is giving me so much trouble with the mapping, I just can't make it optimized enough (it's just a garbled mess of parts that I don't know goes to what.) So the handyman is on hold. So I'm going to continue with Futurama stuff for now. Here's a list of things I have in plan for a full on pack for every class. [B]Engineer[/B] - Bendgineer pack: Bender's arm, Bending unit 22 (facial apperatus), Angus' Shotgun (Fry am the Eggman) [B]Spy[/B] - The Eviscerator (Bender's Game) [B]Scout[/B] - Fry's hair [B]Medic[/B] - Farnsworth's Glasses [B]Heavy[/B] - Clamps' Clamps, Angus' Shotgun (Fry am the Eggman) [B]Soldier[/B] - Bender's electrical cannon (Bender's Big Score) [B]Sniper [/B]- penguin sniper rifle (The Birdbot of Ice-Catraz) [B]Demo[/B] - Bender's sword or Walt, Larry and Igner's Lance (Bender's Game) [B]Pyro[/B] - ?, Angus' Shotgun (Fry am the Eggman) I need something else to make for the Pyro, but I'm stumped. [B]Completed:[/B] Bending Unit 22 (facial apparatus) [B] Near Completion:[/B] Clamps' Clamps (rigging problem) Bender's Arm (rigging problem, might make it a wrench replacement instead)
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;31922426]Pipboy update released.[/QUOTE] We got to click the link in the OP I guess?
You know, for a group that spends the majority of their time modding TF2, why don't we ever all get together and have a match or two? I think it'd be a lot of fun to just get as many people in as possible and just have some fun. We could use the GMG Battleground server, since it's 95% of the time completely empty, and when it's not it's 2 or 3 people. It runs Valve maps only I believe. Would any of you [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/tick.png[/img] to join? Think of it as a "meet and greet", but with a lot more mods. And killing.
