Error when loading models


(LaVaGoD) #1

I get the below error when I try to load a Model. I hope someone has run into this and can tell me how to fix this.

I picked a random model and tried to load it in a blank map. This is the error it generated.

After you load the model, you have to go into the info window (hit n) and alter the model path. If it looks like this:

C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory/etmain/models/mapobjects/archeology/pitcher.md3

You need to change it so the path starts from /models like this:

models/mapobjects/archeology/pitcher.md3

Thanks, worked. I never even thought about that.
