by skinmeshing first. get lithunwrap (search in yahoo thats what i did) and then find some tutorials for it. please dont get angry like that "how the hell do i do this??" isnt something I or anyone wants to see...

hmm interetsing. you should have made the joints connected, however, to form that skeliton. otherwise good job so far

funbags · October 2003

you can skinmesh with milshape...i already have. im saying how do i get the flat side of the cylinder on my texture coordinate editor.

Jimmeh · October 2003

Should be on the .bmp file if you've skinmeshed it properly

yes thats what i'm saying. also milkshape is horrible with skinmeshing, however, w/the coordinate editor up, select the faces you want normally, then in the TCE (text. coord. edit'r.) make sure its on the right side (ie right, left or front) and then select where you want it to be, and then, remap it.

anybody have any comments on my first model?

I think with a bit more detail it would look pretty nice <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'>

Try shapes other then cylinders.

funbags · October 2003

like what, boxes? pretty hard to make a barrel with boxes. pretty hard to make barrels with spheres. pretty hard to make legs with spheres...i coulda made the legs with boxes but...i didnt want to :\

hey i got the chain gun skin or whatever to go on the end of the barrel, i selected the last vertices then scaled it and everything. how do i change views in TCE? Right now im in front, but i want to change projection to left. how do i do that without having to remap it?

Daza4 · October 2003

He means by makeing your own shapes useing the face and vertex tool.

funbags · October 2003

GRR THATS WHAT THOSE WERE *DIES*

funbags · October 2003

hey, how do i change views in TCE?ive got the rounded edges of my barrel properly skinned, but now i wanna do the flat top. how do i change views without remaping?

funbags · October 2003

Anyone know of a good tut for milkshape?

Jezpuh · October 2003

Sometimes you have to wait longer than 30 min to get a reply.

funbags · October 2003

but this is the magical NS forum....on the old forum i went to youd get replies damn fast... 5 minutes MAX if anyone was cruising it...

I left because my sister joined.

CoolCookieCooks · October 2003

funbags · October 2003

you really hate me this much because im new? so what if i ask a lot of questions. jesus christ.

EDIT: Lets stay on track guys...no flaming either.

Anyone know of a good tut for Milkshape or Texture Coordinate Editor?

BrigadierWolf · October 2003

No, we dont like you because you apparently get angry when we refuse to drop everything we're doing because you need to know how to perform basic modelling techniques RIGHT NOW! And because even though you say youve read the tutorials, you obviously haven't, or just dont feel like reading them carefully enough to learn from them. It took me almost a year before I was even halfway decent at modelling, even longer at skinning. It takes time, effort, and a heck of alot of patience. You arent going to become a modeller overnight, and arguing with people on a forum isnt going to solve your problems, Its just going to make everyone not like you. Which you seem to be accomplishing quite well. The only advice I will give you, is to drop the attitude, and start reading the tutorials through if you want to learn anything. Because we arent here to cater to your needs.

I hope this clarifies things.

CoolCookieCooks · October 2003

i never sed i HATED you i just get annoyed when people ask the same question time ansd time again but never read the answers.

beating up old ladies and stealing their money while completely nude and unarmed is free, last time I checked.

But please, Brig is right, if you have read tutorials you <i>should</i> know most of this. And tutorials are alot better than my patented "just push buttons and click stuff 'till it works, so you know to do it next time" method. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

Akalamanaia · October 2003

Apparently your blind, you see those 2 little sliders in TCE?look at them and stop acting like immobile dog. You don't need to ask everything before ya tried..

funbags · October 2003

ok guys. ill be "polite"

Could one of you people please direct me on changing the views of the texture coordinate editor without having to remap everything so i can put a skin on the rounded side of the cylinder? i have put the barrel skin thing on the end of it so it has a barrel, but now i need to skin the sides.

Thanks.

Akalamanaia · October 2003

You map one section, save and exit milkshape and relaunch it, map one section again and save and exit and continue that on until totally mapped...BRAINS are there for to be used dude.
