1st person hands

[simon]

hi, made these 1st person view hand models for one of the character of our mod, trianglecount 623 for one arm
(i'd like to ask if it's possible in anyway to get this in the HL2 model viewer ? so i can see the lighting and how it will look in-game? anyone ? thanks !

woooooh nice looking hands, luv of the gloves woolly with leather patches, could do with a pair of them.

I think you can load models into hlmv by adding the file name on the command line: ie."hlmv.exe <filename>"

thanks!
i thought you needed to export or something, anyways, the normal maps are being made next, and by tomorrow our animator will start with animating a weapon, he'll probably know more on how to export/compile
(ill post a vid. once we have something)

actually you export as .smd then you compile with the studiomdl.exe and theen you should be able to open in hlmv
