Title: Generations and Openarena 0.8.5
Post by: christooss on March 06, 2011, 12:46:13 PM
Has anyone tried running Generations in OA 0.8.5?

When starting server and loading map everything stops with this error:

Code:
Default Arena Model /skin [visor/default] failed to register

and terminal outputs this:

Code:
Failed to load model file models/players/characters/visor/lower.md3

Anyone has any ideas? I tried setting model as sarge but game still outputs the error.

btw mod works perfectly in ioquake (doh visor is included in it :) ) + ModCompat page has OA version 0.7.7 set as compatible

Visor is missing. Thus, doing a "Visor replacement pack" might do the trick. (I.E. creating a Visor-ish -hi, 3D modellers- or using an already done model editing the paths so they can conduct to model/Visor instead of model/<modelname>)

I did it :)

Generation replacement pack. It uses default OA models as follows:

doom with sarge
ranger with beret
grunt with smarine
visor with sergei
anarki with tony

It's not perfect but makes Generations playable within OpenArena 0.8.5

Pack can be downloaded from here (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/45675/zz-generations-oamodels.pk3)
