Hey all its me :nuts: Half-dude,

I resently got a new low-deff islave model with multiple coller skins. Now When I go to the model viewer I see the skins but I was wondering were I can tell the editor which skin to use. I use Spirit, and it has a "skin" field but when I put in a number and it dosent change. I also noticed that in their idle animations their collors are green, but when they are charging up for an attack the callors will cycle through the color skins WTF is this??

My last question is how do you tell the editor what heads to use ex. have Otis hold a dohnut instead of a gun?

Sorry tried to change the high defenition skin but the modal didn't work! And when I installed the high defenition no modal worked so I reinstalled hl1! :roll: Who is the other guy who is working with you? :| Anyway did you check the skins in game? (I gess it's time to update to steam cause you are using it)

There's a combo box in the "body" section of hlmv, saying "Skin1" - just press it and if the model has moe than 1 skins - you should be able to select em (skin2, skin3, etc.)
And about the change of skins... Well i dunno how 2 fix it, but if i were u I wouldn't worry bout it... It must look cool! :nuts:

You'd have to code it into the fgd file.. I never done that before, but I'm sure it can be done

No you guys are all confused, Not that I blame you ;)

The skins work fine in HLMV, I just cant get them to use ONE of the skins I select, which BTW I dont even know how to select.

and no I cant go with it, its important becouse the different colored callors are ranks, ex. Green=privite, Red=Sargent, Blue=Captain.

"Sorry tried to change the high defenition skin but the modal didn't work!"

Its ok man

"Who is the other guy who is working with you?"

Fishy from snarkpit (yes I stll go there)

"Anyway did you check the skins in game?"

YES, thats were they were cycling through the skins. Thats why I was wondering how tell the editor which skin to use, just incase Im udoing wrong.

"I gess it's time to update to steam cause you are using it"

Ummmm, no? I dont think so.

Hmmmm...you said you are using spirit and spirit can't be used with WON!(well without the latest updates) Did you some how get the updates without steam?(for I was told I can't) Anyway from all the stuff that I heard I can say one thing steam is a pain in the ass! :|

"steam is a pain in the ass! :|"

I'll raise a glass to that, I cant play any classic HL games online because I lost my account info, Damn steam!

Anyway this doesnt solve my problem.

I dont get what your saying Elon, steam is only needed for multiplayer and HL modding, what dose it have to do with my hl1 mod?

Have you tried putting 'skin' 'n' in Hammer with SmartEdit off, with n being the skin index (starting from 0)?

I have never tried using multiple skins on one model, never liked the idea of 2 identical people wich look a bit different, i'd rather go with a new model for that.

My best geuss on your problem would be that your selecting the skin wrong, i believe its defined by numers ranging from 0 to 9. I also cant confirm this, since i havent used multiple skins.

And how is this in the model compiled, the error could be there.
