A few questions

[Karkul]

I recently started to edit models(yes before making my own, I am learning geomerging and editing).

After taking a villager with gun animation from Rulezzman(a russian modeler) then adapting Kofi_Banan infantry texture to it and putting in his hand through the MDLVis the M249 from Epsilon, the weapon appear in model editor but don't in game.

Anyone can help?

Probably not without you uploading the model and texture.

 

[Karkul]

ok I can do so

infantry.zip

I don't see any obvious reason. Is it attached properly to the bone?

Out of interest, any particular reason to not attach the gun in-game?

 

[Karkul]

When attached the gun do not stand right, it will either stand upward with right hand ref or turned to the left when placed as weapon and all attachments dont work.

Can you attach the model to this thread? I want to look into it.

@Karkul make use of the "Upload a File" button on the bottom right hand side of the text box.

Here you go @General Frank

 

[General Frank]

There you go.
You attached the gun to an attachment point. Bad idea. You should always attach it to a bone and never an attachment point or a helper.

 

[Karkul]

Oh thank you, I never thought the mighty frank would intervene.

I am still learning in modeling. Maybe some day I will release my first ''legit'' model here.

One last question, how you rework the bone attachment in MDLVis? Do I have to reimport the geoset?

Added this to the sanity test.
