About MilkShape...

[Assassinalex]

um... can I make my own models for UT on MilkShape or doI have to use the male and female skeletons? Oh, and can you get a tutorial for me coz I can't find one anywhere.
I am burning with questions that only a tutorial would quench:
How the hell do I animate?
Can I make a giant walking smiley face?
What sort of Things can I do on it?

Please... sum1... help... me.

Right. First you need to build your model.
You can do that and then tweak it in-game with the drawscale and offset options later.
If you want I can cover animation, but for now go to Export -> Unreal 3D...
Make sure you have a maximum of 5 object groups. Just select all the objects you have and group them together if you're unsure.
That's basically your model, but I can show you how to import it too, although it involves code, and compiling a .u package.

 

[Assassinalex]

You what?

Ok, I didn't understand a single word of that. I'm hopeless at coding, anyway. Uh, could you translate that into English for me?

 

[Parser]

Uh, that IS English.
Damn... um... tell you what, why not come and visit #fraghouse on IRC? It'll be a lot easier to explain then..
You can find the details here, and try mIRC (link on the page).
