Model decompiler problem Created 17 years ago2006-06-20 11:54:27 UTC by Xyos212

Im using cannon fodders model decompiler, but when I open it I get the error:

ExtraApp ID set to 211, but no SteamAPP ID

Then it closes.....

CAn anyone help?

Also if you know some other good source model decompilers, can you post them?

That's global.
Everyone gets it, but the creator is too lazy to fix it.
I had the same problem and there's nothing you can do about it. >_<

yes you can......Go to your game folder ( cstrike/ or hl2mp etc ) then open up gameinfo.txt and then look for the line:
ToolsAppId 211
change ToolsAppId into something like: FoolsappId, just something else doesn't matter what. And, omgomgomgomg, there ya go it works! But now the source sdk won't work, so to use the sdk change it back into ToolsAppId.

Cool!
Thanks, now I can finnaly see how they compiled the ?HL2 weapons!

Wait a sec. that Won't work.
In that case you would have to change it in every gameinfo file for every mod/game, because it happens on programload, not when you load a model

Nice, thanks GertJe!

No, wait. I was wrong, it does work!
Thanks!

If you guys want to have some real fun, you should find the torrent that has all the hl2 models and textures. Makes life so much more simpler. Then use the working version of cannon fodder and decompile whatever .mdl u want to get all the good stuff u need like the qc file etc. Now you can make hl2 your b1tch!
