it means you have too many vertices in pistol_ref.smd

bunny-x

ok but what are vertices and how do i fix this?

coris

vertices = plenty vertex.
Its a dot that is used to create a face/polygon.

bunny-x

so my model has to many face s and is to detailed

GPX

i guess so

the amount of faces may not be the problem... try welding some together to reduce the vertex count... i dont know what youre trying to do so i cant really help further than that..

k tnx peeps i know now what the problem was i made a wire and that object had AALLLOOOT op vertexes

though yes, WRONG FORUM:

split your model up into two different smd files. per se half1.smd and half2.smd

then in your qc file you'll see

...
$bodygroup studio
{
"pistol_ref"
}
...

replace pistol ref with half1 (-.smd) then add a new $bodygroup:
...
$bodygroup second
{
"half2"
}
...

then recompile. if you then get another too many verts error, split said smd up again.
