need help with shaders & md3

[NeZetiC]

Hello,

I need some help with shaders & md3.

I would like to use q3map_surfaceModel shader, but all my tries are failures and I can't find any working example.

Moreover, I'm able to create map with md3 from data-1.1.0.pk3 (ex: models/mapobjects/plant_life/grass.md3), but I can't include my own md3 (from my map pk3).

[ars]

for your md3's they have to be in
yourmapname(or whatever).pk3/models/mapobjects/
then you put your models here should work
each model needs its own file
ex. multiplant/bannanaleaf.tga,  palmfrond.tga,  multiplant_p2.md3
so the whole string is:
yourmapname.pk3/models/mapobjects/modelname/model.md3, texture1.tga, texture2.tga, etc...

for as many textures required
pk3 needs to be in tremulous/base/
hope this helps

Ok, thx for your answer ars, I found my problem. On my system, q3map2 search a path called $HOME/.q3a/base but I've got only $HOME/.trem. So one symbolic link later, I can include my one models...

But q3map_surfaceModel shader dont work... (not surprising, I think it's a bit tricky to use).

[ars]

the shader file would have to be in a pk3 in tremulous/base

ex mapname.pk3/scripts/shadername.shader

textures used in shader go in:

ex. mapname.pk3/textures/mapname/

so I would think the q3map_surfaceMadel shader would go there or it might not :-? but I would try it.

If this doesn't work it might go in the same spot as the md3 and the tga's

Ok, I finaly found my mistake... I forgot to add my shader file to shaderlist.txt, ans so q3map2 didn't see it during compilation  :roll:

I'm a damn noob  :wink:

Yes you are
