Hi all, I just joined this forum and just got into modding renegade. I have a few questions about w3d files. If any of you have played the Zero SP mod, then you know that there are 2 very incredible models used. Well, I wanted to be able to use the models as I would a skin in multiplayer and online. I e-mailed the staff of the Zero SP mod and I told them about I wanted to use their models for my personal use and enjoyment so I can see them (like skins). However, they told me that what I wanted to do was not possible, but I was welcome to look through their pkg file and fool around to see if I could come up with a solution. So far, nothing has worked. To make a long story short, my question is: How come you can use w3d files to change the model of weapons (ie the colt model for the pistol and the m4, m16 for the automatic rifle) , but not infantry? I want to be able to see the new models in game just like I was seeing a skin. There's no advantage in playing, just eye candy well, sorry for the long read!
