I used an existing Quake2 Blaster Model (with skin) for a weapon replacement (pistol). In Gmax I used 'm' and chose the skin (blaster.bmp) and applied it to the new pistol mesh, and it fit perfectly. I put the W3D's and skin into Data, but... the skin doesn't show. I tried converting the bmp to a .dds (DXT1) but I couldn't apply it in Gmax.

Can anyone help me get this skinned? Huh

Try Renegade's name for the texture file, which I'm pretty sure is just pistol.dds, for starts.

I'll have to re-import into gmax first, meaning the bones will have to have "Export Geometry" unchecked again.

Here, and thanks for looking at it Satisfied

When I applied it in Gmax, it looked fine, but after export it looked like the screenshot in my first post.

Thanks, man!

Ok, can you tell me in a litle more detail what I did wrong, so I won't do it again? "No material applied to the weapon"?
Thanks again, I appreciate it a lot Rocked Over

EDIT: I tried it ingame, and it's still not showing a skin for me. What the heck is going on Huh

I put every file (minus the gmax files) into my data folder.
And of course there wasn't a texture applied, I had to re-import the w3d which strips the skin from it.
I'm really confused...

Texturing is my only problem.
This proves it, seeing as how it doesn't use a skin and it works fine.
I'll try making another soon that involves a skin and see if I keep getting the same problem.
