Hey all im now wondering how to import some models and get them to appear in game,

I have downloaded some new models to use in my games but they i can't seem to get them to show in game,

Now i have read all the tutorials and the basic things i need are a .obj file, a skin file and one other you create, the models i have downloaded come in many formats and have seperate components, here is an image to show you what i mean.



Im wondering how i import this and get it to show up in my game so i can use it,

regards

riley morse =)

so i presume there is no way to do this?

another question,

im experimenting with a FPS shooter and im wondering how i can get a gun image out in front of me like any FPS in the world =)

To have a working obj model in game just create a folder in your model folder drag your model and skin files into the folder and rename the model tris and the texture file skin. Make a cfg file named obj.cfg and enter this in the first line "mdlscale 100", save the cfg and close the folder. Next go to data and default map models and at the end of the list name your path to your model folder. That's it start up pas open the model list and it should be at the end.

Also, lots of info in the FAQ about this. Take care.

I know how to import the files roughly its just that (as you can see in the image) there are no skin files so I am wondering what i do in that case but thanks for the answers =)

So is it possible at all to make a weapon constant in front of you and even change if you change weapons

And a new question, how do you make monsters attack you ( i should probably look at master chef orgo =)) and is it possible to make monsters spawn after a certain amount of time eg a monster spawns on the same hill every ten seconds?

Another question is 'can i make a score and make the game harder as the score goes up',

the point of these questions is because im interested in making something like left 4 dead but without zombies and in a sandbox world where the player just tries to survive

is this at all possible?
