obviously the qc file isnt right for WET
this is what the qc file says
// Quake III Arena MD3 control file, generated by MilkShape 3D
//
$model “models/mapobjects/br_minicooper/br_cooper3.md3”
// reference frame
//$frames -1 -1
// frame 1-30
$frames 1 30
$flags 0
$numskins 0

// you can have one or no parent tag

// tags

// meshes (surfaces)
$mesh “br_cooperwindow”
$skin “models/mapobjects/br_minicooper/br_cooperwindow.tga”
$flags 0

$mesh “br_coopertire”
$skin “models/mapobjects/br_minicooper/br_coopertire.jpg”
$flags 0

$mesh “br_cooper3”
$skin “models/mapobjects/br_minicooper/br_cooper3.jpg”
$flags 0

qc file isn’t needed by W:ET

Try to create a subfolder with name “/br_minicooper” under “/models/mapobjects” and put a JPG or TGA file with name “br_cooper3.jpg” or “br_cooper3.tga” in this subfolder.
Normally there should be a file with that name shipping along with the model.

Is there a “.shader” file included with the model?

i already have the /models/mapobjects/br_cooper folders in the br_cooper file there is br_cooper1 through to 5, .md3
br_cooper1 through to 5, .jpg
br_cooper1 through to 5, .qc
br_coopertire.jpg
br_cooperwindow.jpg
and thats all
there is no .shader file with the folder thats what Im wondering is the problem as to if it needs one and if so how do i create it and does it need to stay in the br_cooped folder or do i need to put it in the scripts folder with the {mapname}.shader file or even include it on the {mapname}.shader file

Actually, You don’t need a shader for a model to show up ingame: Although - without a shader - the model will cast shadows, it will not receive any shadows from any nearby structures.

I’ve downloaded the minicooper models and they do work ingame: - except for yellow minicooper wheels - It seems that the autor made a typo when typing the paths to the texture :frowning:

can be easly fixed with NPherno’s md3 compiler if you dont have modeling software to hand
