well, i'm back with a new project and i'm having trouble compiling it. i'm having the error too many normals or too many verts or something like that..

if anyone's interested in helping me compile this baby, pm me with an email so i could send the smd file so this thing could be sorted and hopefully be released as soon an i get it tested and compiled.

edit: btw, it's a player model

    as far as i know milkshape has a limit of verticals

    so get the new version it has been released yesterday and they made a higher vert limit

    or ucould plit it up into 2 smds and compile them into one big mofo

    it might help u

    ok i tried that method and split it into two smds and i can't get the other half to compile with the other half. i'm not good in fiddling the qc files :\

    edit: i did it with the jetpack too and only half gets compiled D: eventually i did the qc file wrong again

    yeah, that is why i split the model in two smds and compile it which works perfectly, but i just need to know the right commandline for the jetpack ref in the qc.

    A 3rd SMD for the Jetpack perhaps? Sorry, Can't help much, I'm a mappar, not a mod'lar.

    2 smds would work fine.. but i need to know what commandline to put in the qc file so that those two smd files would compile. i'm only having this error for the jetpack model.

    If it was a model part to split up I would know, but unfortunately it is the SUBMODEL (or was it the other way round?). I dunno how to do this yet, but I'll keep trying...

    Isn't the jetpack a submodel by default so there doesn't have to be two in the default marine model [one for black, one for white]? If so, open the default QC and look at what it says, no?

    trial and error ownz... I got it compiled with this:

    <!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->
    $bodygroup jp
    {
    blank
    studio "jp"
    }

    $body studio "c_marine"
    <!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

    C_marine is the jpless rines, jp is the jprine without rine (^^), so just the jp.

    I see their heads are different. I think Cut of the head of the normal rine and make it head.smd. Include the jprine's head in the jp.smd. Then repalce the

    blank

    with a

    studio "head"

    so it looks like:


    <!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->$bodygroup jp
    {
    studio "head"
    studio "jp"
    }

    $body studio "c_marine"
    <!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

    If there are more different parts just include the one that only the normal rine has in the head.smd and the only jp one in the jp.smd.. now THIS should work

    COMPILING THIS WORX!!!! They share the same body, but equipment on the back and the heads are different... I guess that's what you wanted.. I hope so...

    If it doesn't work for you, feel free to tell, I'll send you my smds and the qc then

    I'm sending you the mdl right now, just decompile it. Note: I had to replace the textures by placeholders, but did not change the map in any way (I hope so...)

    OK I tested my model (I remade it like <!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->$bodygroup jp
    {
    studio "head"
    studio "jp"
    }

    $body studio "c_marine"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

    )

    And it works without flaws ingame, normal rine look normal and JP rine has JP as usual. So this technique WILL DEFINETLY work for your model, too ^^
