The answers to most of those questions can be found in Valve's modelling for HL guide, found in the HL SDK. The modelling guide is linked in thefirst post of the "how to model" sticky, though I do not know if it is still active.
1. How can i delete fired bullet shells flying of the weapon ? 2. Is there any existing list of events that are used in qc file ? 3. Why is only muzzleflash1 used for ALL ns weapons ? 4. how can i use muzzleflash3 for pistol, muzzle2 for hmg etc ? <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> 1.) replace the shell.mdl and the other similar models with a blank model file 2.) See Maus' post 3.) You can change the muzzleflash that is used by changing the qc file of the model. So if you replaced muzzleflash2 or muzzleflash3 with a new MF, just edit the qc to use one of the them instead. 4.) See 3. (there is a tutorial about it in the Customization Help and Troubleshooting forum. If you can't find it, set the board to"Showing all posts from the beginning" and do a search...)

Hey man, I'd be glad to help. I got a full version of MS3d... but no clue how to use it. If you can help me learn, I'd be extremely grateful, and would gladly help you with this pack.

english people
calm down everyone, dont reply to it and dont feel accosed to what digge said. Hes a very loud person. so be friend and let moving gather his help and people for his plasma guns. Btw flaming him isnt nice since these are his first models and i havent seen many people who learned as fast as him. He started only 1-2 months ago and is doing everything on his own. model, texture, anims, compiling. so respect that and help him if you want.
i dont need a modelling tutorial... i can model just fine, i just need to find a working version of SOMETHiNG THAT I CAN USE >.<
I was gunna use XSI for a bit, but my monitor doesnt seem to like 1280 x 768 for some reason... even though i did it before, then my comp was reset and then it just went... ffs! and my 3ds keeps on giving me a license error...
Oy, target. If you help me learn modeling, I'd be glad to help you in return <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Demi, try your hand at Wings3D, it's got a great interface...once you learn it anyway, and can export to very useful formats. (.3ds, .obj, etc.), aswell as import the very same. And, credits to Bashh for this one, but Cinema4D Demo = teh pwn for renders.

The plasma rifle in Doom 3 had an interestingly beefy profile, but its default functionality was -crap- [played, finished, threw up my hands in despair, disposed of--SO MUCH WASTED MONEY!!! ARGH!!!].
As a group endeavour to encourage and help new modders learn the ropes, I think this is a brilliant idea. I was mostly stuck figuring things out on my own [of course, I didn't go looking for help because I'm pig-headed], so this should open some doors for some people.
