Title: Lower,Upper MD3's
Post by: ZapperZ on April 23, 2008, 09:49:38 PM
hi everyone

i have been playing this game for a while now,and i've recently been lurking around the forums and i am a Pak hacker creating my own bots.

And i've recently heard this pak hack where U can mix and match other models body parts,i recently started learning how to do this and it and i just want to no if i'm doing everything rite.

Well i extract the... pak2-players.pk3 file and open this archive... model,players... and i put the MD3's and skins files in 1 file e.g say if i wanted sergei upper body and gargoyles lower i would do this:upper.md3,lower.md3 and head.md3 and then the skin files

Is that rite at all? if it is keep reading if not tell me what im doing wrong?

so on...and then i add file to a archive and rename to pk3 and put in the baseoa directory but doesen't come up in the model selection and yes i've tried /model <my dudes name>

fromhell, means that if you mix & match the lower.md3 with the upper.md3 from the different character models. You cant use the animation.cfg from either character. As there now going to be wrong.

And if you don't modify the animation.cfg to suit, you may get weird results.

Most people only mix & match the heads.
