Hi, I didnt know if was going to put this in the newbies section or not. Anyhows, I have a problem, big suprise. Im trying to use custom models in my very basic mod. Ive downloaded a modelpack. It has all the modelfiles and materialfiles all done and ready to use, in separate folders.
The problem: I have no idea on how to get them to work with, firstly steam, and then in the game. I have somehow managed to get the models right. They are in a folder named "models" inside my modfolder in the steam file hirarcy. But when I try to use them in hammer they show up without textures. They have a collision grid and all the stuff exept the materials. Those I put in a folder called.. yeah you get it. anyway, my question is. why arent the materials showing up in hammer if the models are? Is there a sertain folder hirarcy which you have to obey? or is the materials included manually into hammer? Is there a file somwhere that specefies where to find the materials for a specific model?
Would really be glad for some help on this matter. Ive searched for information on this for 2 days now. All I can find is much more advanced with you own modelbuilding and such which only make me feel more retarded...
