Help (Newbish Question, sorry)

I've downloaded modles from the site, models listed under the 2004 directory. I unzip all the files to their respective location, but nothing ever shows up in the game. I've had a few work, such as the raptor. Now I can't get any new ones to show up, like Junkyard Mech, Mega Man, and Bass.

Anyway you could help me get them working?

Maybe I'm just missing the point. I found that portion, everything looks exactly the same. If it's meant to tell me where to unzip everything I already knew that. I know I unzipped everything propperly, it's just none of the new models ever show up in the character selection, or bot roster.

hmm... you may need to open up the .upl file for hte model... it should be in the system directory, and also check the readme for the model...

Player=(DefaultName="Marygold",Race="CAT",Mesh=CatsAnim2k4.Cats,species=xGame.SPECIES_Merc,Skeleton= CatsAnim2k4.Skeleton_Cats,Ragdoll=Alien,BodySkin=Marygold.JaguarBodyShader,FaceSkin=Marygold.JaguarF ace,Portrait=MaryGold.JaguarPort,Text=XPlayers.CAT_MarygoldAA,Sex=Female,Menu="SP",Aggressiveness=+1 .0,CombatStyle=+1.0,Accuracy=+5.0,StrafingAbility=+3.0,ReactionTime=+10.0,Tactics=+2.0,Jumpiness=1.0 0,bJumpy=False,BotUse=1)


this example has an entry in the xplayers.int file called... CAT_MarygoldAA

so you need to check the .upl on teh entry of.... text=

because if it has all the text there, like this...

text="name: whatever||age: unknown||info: unknown"

just make sure you move it to the player.int file like this...

starting="name: whatever||age: unknown||info: unknown"

but change the text=... to this.... text=xplayers.starting

Wow...maybe I should just stop using custom models then...cuz I didn't understand a word of that...the .upl has this in it.

[Public]

Player=(DefaultName="Bass",Mesh=bass_anim.bass_Male,species=xGame.SPECIES_Merc,BodySkin=bass_texture .bass_texA,FaceSkin=bass_texture.bass_texA,Portrait=bass_texture.Portrait,Sex=Male,Menu="SP")

Now...what do I need to do with that? Change what to what and put it where?

Woah nevermind, simpler fix than I thought. Everything was going to a subdirectory. LIke...inside the system folder there was a system folder and it was all in there, so I moved it out of there. Got em all working now though, thanks for the help.
