That is one very nice skin... which is going directly into my models directory, no doubt about that :D

Looking forward at any other skins that might come (i already readed something about a StG44 and a MG42?)

I like it, although I don't see much of a difference between this model and the Default one, mostly because BOTH are really accurate! It is hard to improve upon the default model but you have given it good compitition. Your charging handle slot is more accurately positioned, but the rear of the receiver frame (at end of receiver tube) AND the folding stock button are more accurate on the default model. All in all an excellent job. Skin is more metallic looking and has good detail but will be too dark for many monitors out there.



FORGOT TO ADD:
I'm not sure if this was the modeller or the skinner, but it looks like one or the other tried to add the rib down the top of the receiver tube (which is missing on the default).

Is it me, or is any one confused/having trouble installing these? extracting to /dod folder doesn't work for me. Also, is the folder name supposed to be SS.mp40 instead of mp40?

The HL2 engin brought with it some stupid way of placing custom content into one's game. If you ask me its a downgrade from HL1 way.

http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=55342 and yes, it is supposed to be named SS.mp40 in this case.

This is by far the best gun model work i have seen for day of defeat source yet! normal maps look fantastic in a dark room with a dim light shining on it. thank you to all involved and please make more new models for dod:s :cool:

Still cant get these to work. I manually put each file into there respective v/w model folders. changing the weapon folder name from "ss.mp40" to just "mp40" doesnt work either. Do i have to change the actual filenames themselves? What are those "mag, map1" file supposed to be?

Im using custom skins for my k98 and thompson all they and these work fine. The files were simply called "v_thompson.vmt and vtf"

Anyone who has the time wanna give me a step by step installation procedure? Thanks

your not supposed to change the folder name. just leave it as SS.mp40 and it should work.

Take a look at the difference in the level of detail in the pic that Wile E Coyote put up on page 2 (who by the way is the best player model reskinner ive seen yet for dod:s),what a great looking mp40 model that also has the most fantastic looking normal maps ive seen on day of defeat source yet! Thanks again guys for sharing this model,much appreciated :)

Your textures are in the wrong place, see that your materials folder is in the dod folder and not day of defeat source folder

I've been using this release ever sinced it has been released. But, 1 bug is getting a bit annoying, the world model.
Every MP40 that is dropped on the ground doesn't lie on the ground, but is standing on its butt-stock for some reason. Anyone else having this?

can someone tell me what is wrong, i put all of the file in the right directory, according to what i have read, this is what it looks like ingame, it seems like shadows dont work on the model.

could it be that its like that because your in a shadow? dynamic lighting and what not? its hard to tell form the screen shot, but if your standing in a shadow, i think its supposed to become dark.

actually the problem is that the opposite happens ingame, when i get in a shadow, the model get grey, and not darker.

01-04-2006, 01:38 AM
ah, i guess i misunderstood. in that case i really dont know what your problem is. possibly a strange issue with the normal maps? maybe try deleting them?

FG42 is out of business. It was too whacky to unwrap...

lordfantas
01-04-2006, 11:26 PM
that sux. have you shopped it around to see if anyone else would do it for you?

Sproily
01-05-2006, 09:52 AM
Bullet-head. He was unable to unwrap it due to the crazyness of the model / real life weapon.

Anything happening with either a stg-44 or bar Sproily?

Wile E Coyote
01-05-2006, 02:29 PM
If sproily says it couldn't be unwrapped, I'm betting that he isn't exxagerating

FIGUUR
01-05-2006, 04:34 PM
the unwrapping is about the FG42 he made, not the StG44. Not that i even know he started on it. Looks like he has alot of project running alongside of each other, like the garand for one.

Downloading and using tonight. The MP40 is my new favorite weapon btw.....accuracy sucks but there is NO kick. Ahhh, let em loose.
