| | |
| === model ===
| |
| | |
| '''model ''filename'' { ... }'''
| |
| | |
| Defines a model to replace certain sprites in the game when running in OpenGL Polymost mode. '''''filename''''' is the model file in md2 or md3 format.

| | |
| The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:
| |
| | |
| ==== scale ====
| |
| | |
| '''scale ''value'''''

| |
| | |
| '''IMPORTANT:''' If your model exists in a subdirectory (ie. the model filename includes a path to the .md2/3) you will need to give the same path to filename if the skin is in the same directory.
| |
| | |
| ==== anim ====
| |
| | |
| anim { ... }
| |
| Defines an animation from a group of frames in the model. The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:

| |
| | |
| ===== fps =====
| |
| | |
| '''fps ''fps'''''
| |
| | |
| Specifies the frame rate at which the animation should play. This value may be fractional.
| |
| | |
| ===== flags =====
| |
| | |
| '''flags ''flags'''''

| Specifies any special properties the animation should have, the values of which should be added together to combine multiple options.
| |
| | |
| Valid options are:
| |
| * 0 = none (looping animation)
| |
| * 1 = one-shot (plays beginning to end once and stops on the last frame).
| |
| | |
| ==== frame ====
| |
| | |
| '''frame { ... }'''
| |
| Defines a range of ART-file tiles to correspond with the given frame/animation of the model. The brace-enclosed block may contain these instructions:
| |
| | |
| ===== name =====
| |
| | |
| '''name ''framename'''''
| |
| | |
| '''frame ''framename'''''
| |
| | |
| If '''''framename''''' is identical to the starting frame of an animation, the engine will play that animation, otherwise the replacement will be static. You can choose to use the '''frame''' or '''name''' versions of this instruction as both are identical.
| |
| | |
| ===== tile =====
| |
| | |
| '''tile ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| '''tile0 ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| '''tile1 ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| Use the tile instruction to specify an ART-file tile which this model should replace. Use the '''tile0''' and '''tile1''' instructions together to specify a range of ART-file tiles. If you use '''tile0''', you must also have a '''tile1'''. You may not use the same instruction twice to specify multiple ranges.
| |
| | |
| ==== hud ====
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| '''''tile ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| '''''tile0 ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| '''''tile1 ''tilenum'''''
| |
| | |
| '''tile0''' and '''tile1''' together specify a range of ART-file tiles which this model frame should replace when rendered as part of the HUD. You can specify individual tiles using a single tile command.
| |
|
| |
| ===== offset =====
| |
| | |
| '''xadd ''offset'''''
| |
| | |
| '''yadd ''offset'''''
| |
| | |
| '''zadd ''offset'''''
| |
| | |
| '''angadd ''offset'''''
| |
| | |
| Use these offsets to fine-tune the location of the model placement. '''xadd''', '''yadd''', and '''zadd''' are position offsets relative to the viewer's orienation. You can use floating point values with them. '''angadd''' is a Build angle offset. (512 = 90 degrees, 1024 = 180 degrees, etc...).
| |
| | |
| ===== hide =====
| |
| | |
| '''hide'''
| |
| | |
| Some weapons use multiple ART tiles for constructing the gun or animation. Use this option to hide parts that you don't need in your replacement.
| |
| | |
| ===== nobob =====
| |
| | |
| '''nobob'''
| |
| | |
| By default, the HUD model offset is affected by the player bobbing offset when the player is walking. Use this option to disable that.
| |
| | |
| ===== flipped =====
| |
| | |
| '''flipped'''
| |
| | |
| Use this option to apply the settings inside the hud block only if the object is normally rendered x-flipped (mirror image). Some weapons, such as the devastator, are rendered in 2 pieces, the left devastator is actually a mirror image of the right.
| |
| | |
| ===== nodepth =====
| |
| | |
| '''nodepth'''
| |
| | |
| Use this to render a HUD model without the use of the depth buffer. Normally, you should avoid this. The one exception where this is useful is for the spinning nuke menu pointer because it should always be in front - and it just happens to be convex ... which is the one case that is safe with the depth buffer disabled … a rather fortunate coincidence.

| |
| | |
| ===== scale =====
| |
| | |
| '''scale ''value'''''
| |
| | |
| '''''value''''' is a positive floating-point value that'll determine how much your detail map should repeat on your diffuse map (if you want your detail map to repeat five times, use a 1/5 scale : 0.2).
| |
| | |
| ===== surface =====
| |
| | |
| '''surface ''surfnum'''''
| |
| Specifies which MD3 surface this detail texture should be applied to. This has no significance for MD2 models.

Use '''tile''' to map a single tile to be rendered as voxels and '''tile0''', '''tile1''' together define a range of tiles to be rendered as voxels. The '''tile0''' instruction should appear before the '''tile1''' instruction to define a correct range.
| |
| | |
| ==== scale ====
| |
| | |
| '''''scale ''value'''''
| |
| | |
| '''''value''''' is a (possibly fractional) value specifying a scaling factor for the voxelmodel when it is rendered, eg. 1.5 for one-and-a-half times as big.
