Title: Simple Easy Question. (I Hope)
Post by: a Turret on May 13, 2007, 02:37:01 pm

I decided to make some skins and some cool graphics for tremulous since i just downloaded the Lovely Mod and it change the graphics. I made that data-1.1.0 or what ever it is a .zip and unzipped it, i deleted everything i wasnt modifying from it and i made it like this(below), zipped it, changed it to a .pk3

Code: [Select]


newflamer.pk3
->gfx
-->flame
--->flame00
--->flame01
--->flame02
--->flame03
--->flame04
--->flame05
--->flame06
--->flame07
--->flame08
--->flame09
--->flame10
--->flame11
--->flame12
--->flame13
--->flame14
--->flame15
--->flame16
--->flame17
--->flame18
--->flame19
--->flame20
--->flame21
--->flame22
--->flame23
--->flame24
->models
-->weapons
--->flamer
---->flamer.jpg
---->flamer.tga
---->flash.jpg
---->gas.jpg


But the mod doesnt work, i have tried deleting all previous mods, (even delete tremulous and re-install) and it still doesn't work.

So i then put those files into the lovely mod that i downloaded earlier, and it worked!

So what is wrong with it?

here is a download to my .pk3 if any 1 wants to look at it and figure out why it doesn't work.

Ah, I know what this is. Rename your pk3 so it comes alphabetically *after* data-1.1.0.pk3, e.g. data-1.1.1.pk3 or xylophone.pk3 or newflamer.pk3
Currently, the game reads this pk3 first, then reads the data pk3 and overrides all your hard work with the default stuff. If you look in /path you'll see that in the order of priority the data pak comes first.
