Umm, why not just build a train from brushes in Hammer and not model it. Modeling will be difficult if the player is to walk around on it, if not, then its easier.
In order to make models move, build a platform covered in AAATrigger and put a model on it. Set the sounds on the AAATrigger train using defaults, or stick custom ones in Sound/Plats or something like that.

Animating it? Then you want a model? I'd say leave it for now, you want a moving train, a controllable one, right? Then modelling has nothing to do with it. Just build your train from brushes in Hammer, read up on the func_tracktrain and path_track and func_traincontrols, and get experimenting. It's not so difficult, just search for some tutorials and read some entity guides.

Get Wally and make a new WAD and drag-drop them into the new WAD. If you have lots of custom textures like me (~3-4k custom textures) make a single WAD titled 'custom' or something, and just wadinclude everything from there, as it's a pain to have hundreds of little individual WADs.
As for making the train shape right, you're the only one who can do that. Read up on the Vertex Manip tutorials, practice with the clip and shear tools, and just keep trying. You'll get it eventually.

Twain: 'fraid the textures don't have to be square, but yes, both dimensions must be multiples of 16.

Post #40625
isn't that squre then, 16x16 creates a box image to me
Posted 20 years ago2004-07-12 07:02:21 UTC

Multiples of 16. So it could be 16X256 or any other number that is a multiple of 16.
