making models in blendder for radiant use

[remco138]

Hello, im good with blender3d and i want to make models for my map,
when i export it to .ase (or 3ds) and do at gtradiant
misc-->misc_model then open the .ase file but it opens the model perfect, but the problem is, it gives an error at console and it haves the bleu-is
texture.

i allready textured it in blender, using the UV ting

i use GTKradiant 1.5 but it gives the same error at 1.2

how can i get it textured?

(sorry for the bad english, im not that good writer)

what is the path for the model texture?

[remco138]

C:\Program Files\Tremulous\base\textures\test\a.jpg

[f0rqu3]

see? you need
textures/test/a.jpg
( you can use textures\test\a.jpg but it may not work then textures\\test\\a.jpg this may work so try to use "/" )

point is path must be relative to base directory

where do i change that? in the .ase file itself or in radiant?

i found someting when you select it and press S there is an textbox where you can place texture, but that isnt good probally...


i edited the .ase file but when i open now it says:
Texture load failed: "C:/Program Files/Tremulous/base/textures/a.jpg"

where do i change it!?

ase file

[remco138]

i edited the .ase file but when i open now it says:
Texture load failed: "C:/Program Files/Tremulous/base/textures/a.jpg

where do i need to edit it? at the *MATERIAL_NAME??

i have at material name now:
C:/Program Files/Tremulous/base/textures/a.jpg
first it was just MATERIAL i changed it to the path.

(i tried every path that maybe could work like: \textures\a.jpg and textures\a.jpg whitout the backslash)

yes you shouldnt have links like
C:/Program Files/Tremulous/base/textures/a.jpg
make them all relative.
textures/a.jpg

i did ill try again but... ye

same error, but then with the path you requested:

Texture load failed: "textures/a.jpg"

-when im trying to put models into a map, i use this path -

C:\Program Files\Tremulous\base\models\mapobjects\ _Map Name_

-then i put all the textures and skins into that folder.

-then i .pk3 it, put it in /base and it always works.




easy .pk3'ing

-copy atcs.pk3
-open with winrar
-delete all folders inside
-and the models folder (mapobjects\ _Map Name_\models, with in it)
 and all other folders needed, scripts, textures, map, etc etc

all done.


this is just my method that i use, works for me lolz

dunno why u need a script

[doomagent13]

Just so you know, in case you didnt, the trem executable only takes .md3, .md4, and .mdr formats of models.  I dont know what gtkradiant does with models, so it might still work.

Huh? I was pretty sure i got it working with taking lwo's too. Infact, in the list there is

-md3
-ase
-lwo
-obj
-3ds
-pico
