i've done some hackin on a player model for personal use, but i cannot compile the model. I have tried using GUI StudioMDL 1.0, compiling through Jed's HLMV 1.2 and i've tried using the Milkshape compiler and none have worked. I doubt there is problem with the hackin i've done, because i decompiled and tried to compile back an original model from the steam GCF and it couldn't compile that either.

My system specs
Intel P4 3.00GHZ
NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440
512 MB ram
Windows XP PRO SP1

any help apriciated

can we get the error ??
just run it in the GUI StudioMDL
is tell us wot the error is
just copy what it spits out

there is no error.
it starts compiling with no problem and then just stops.
In GUI StudioMDL it stops at the following line

grabbing .\/crouch_mp40_aim_blend1.smd
grabbing .\/crou

and no error comes up or anything it just stops compiling.

do u have the newest compiler ???
if u have try letting it stand for some mins
2 - 3 maybe
otherwise i dont know
i guess if jed has the time hi will visit the
forum and maybe ull get an awnser

i think its the newest but just i case can u post alink to where i can get the newest one cuz all the links in the stickies don't work for me.

dont say there isnt an error when it isnt working :P

either u dont have the most up to date compiler to handle the animation count, or portions of the qc file are missing, go check that out.

try these and fyi its got little to 0 to do with system specs

hope this helps

i got the studiomdl from the link in ur tutorials thread editor321, and its still not working. I've looked over the qc file and i cannot find anything wrong with it, but ill attach it maybe someone can spot something.

Looks like Studiomdl crapping out over a memory buffer overflow error. I had the same problem trying to compiile my animated faces when I added extra bones to the skeleton.

Its a problem with Studiomdl as far as I know and theres no work around. If you remember it did the same thing trying to compile 1.1 models with 1.0 compiler and 1.0 with the 3.1, etc.
