Easy Way To Switch Between Models

Drummer · October 2004

i was wondering if there was a way to easily switch between different custom models i have, other than just moving files around

DeathKnight · October 2004

I am not sure if there is a way. But someone on these forums should know how.

two folders

ns/models_custom
ns/models_default

just create two, customize one, and rename it to models as you desire to use them...

unfortunaltly, for the clanner, that's all that can be done.

Goto you half-life folder, add to favorites. Works every time.

You could use a batch file to copy files or rename folders, but I don't know that language.

there was a program being made to do this, but it got put on hold due to RL issues. i'd continue it myself, but my coding is rusty as hell, so it'd prob, be easier to get someone to start from scratch.

What's a RL? Do I need one...?

There was a pretty cool one made for Action Half Life if I remember correctly... An ns one would be very nice to have... <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

yus i was very disappoint when this went on hold. it looked very promising. won't tell too many sekrats, but it was pretty damn speshal. much more functional than the AHL Armory.

That made my day right there!

Can you use any customs in clan matches?

(Walking Target at m8's house) Most leagues do not allow any custom mdl's (in fact i dont know any that allow customs)

If consictency is on you can change some sprites, like the crosshairs and stuff. No models iirc.

Me and Demi are going to start work on this ickle program to give him some experience at coding and creating win 32 apps. I'll check in when its done.

i made a fairly simple batch file to change models a while ago, but i deleted it however it looked something liek this

copy "D:\Games\colour\pldecal.WAD" "D:\Games\steam\SteamApps\arael_02\half-life\ns\tempdecal.wad"

copy "D:\Games\colour\pldecal.WAD" "D:\Games\steam\SteamApps\arael_02\half-life\ns\pldecal.wad"

all you have to do is replace "d:\games\colour\pldecal.wad" with the location of the new model (best if in the models directory you have 2 more folders, new and old, so you dont overwrite them) then replace the target line with the one you want

eg

copy "D:\games\steam\steamapps\arael_02\half-life\ns\models\player\new\soldier.mdl"
"D:\games\steam\steamapps\arael_02\half-life\ns\models\player\soldier\soldier.mdl"

for the new model, and then save it, then run it and it will copy the soldier.mdl from the NEW folder into the proper model folder.

to use the old just do the same but make the first link go to the old directory (eg)

copy "D:\games\steam\steamapps\arael_02\half-life\ns\models\player\old\soldier.mdl"
"D:\games\steam\steamapps\arael_02\half-life\ns\models\player\soldier\soldier.mdl"

The sprites were what I was wondering. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' />

lmfao... Coleman, RL is short for real life. You don't need one, technically, but they're nifty.
