ChaosUT has sword swinging action.
Chaos is a Q2 port, so official Chaos maps tend to be Quake style with extra skulls and horror.
Perhaps you could make the axe as a Chaos pickup.

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
is it possible to replace the sword model with the Axe model?
so the Axe will have its swinging motion etc
in any case i still need to edit the Axe model to make the 3rd person model by removing the arm and hand
what programs do i need for this? and how can i export the Axe model out of an .U package?

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
ive exported the Axe mesh into a .3d file using the unreal 227 editor
imported the .3d file into MilkShape 3D
removed the hand/arm and so the mesh is now only the Axe itself
then exported this edited Axe mesh into the _a.3d, _d.3d and .uc files
and exported the original texture from the axe into a .pcx file
ive created a folder with 2 sub folders called Classes and Models
placed the _a.3d, _d.3d and .uc files into the folder Classes
and placed the .pcx file into the folder Models
then i did the ucc make stuff and had no errors and no warnings
now when opening the .u file in the editor the actor appears and i can place it into the map
although there is no mesh and no texture, what went wrong?

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
You probably didn't assign it in the import code. Place it in editor then find the axe by Edit> Search for actors, then select actor properties. I'll be the mesh and texture are blanked out because they weren't assigned. It's the one thing MilkShape doesn't add in the code generation and I can't tell you the times I've forgotten it too.
So long, and thanks for all the fish
Re: Quake 1 Weapons
i cant assign the mesh because it cant be found in the mesh browser, so seems like the mesh didnt get compiled into the .u
same story with the texture, cant find it in the texture browser
the .u file is only 2kb, so...
from the .uc file:

from the .uc file:

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
Did you put the .3d files in Classes because in the code you're importing the mesh from Models -OwYeaW wrote: .. placed the _a.3d, _d.3d and .uc files into the folder Classes..
and do you need to tell ucc where to look for the texture (what folder it is in)?#exec MESH IMPORT MESH=QuakengAxe3rd ANIVFILE=MODELS\QuakengAxe3rd_a.3d DATAFILE=MODELS\QuakengAxe3rd_d.3d X=0 Y=0 Z=0
Re: Quake 1 Weapons
aha... lol
i got the .3d files in Classes
and the texture(.pcx) in Models
so would this be correct?:
EDIT: after using this "corrected" code its still the same, no texture and no mesh
also since it doesnt have animations, can i just remove the sequence lines?

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
it doesnt work
made new models in 3ds max and i want to convert the .3ds to .3d with 3ds2unr but it doesnt work...
i tried many stuff and did -setproj to a good folder containing the 3ds2unr.exe and the .3ds file but when i do the command 3ds2unr filename.3ds it says cant find file
EDIT: i got the 3ds2unr working properly now
and i managed to ucc make the files into a .u containing the mesh + texture
but now theres a different problem, the texture seems to not fit the mesh, there are blue parts on the mesh which is the background color from the mesh
so i guess ill have to make a new texture, not sure how to do this yet so ill search the forum

ill send you the modelsIf this doesn't work then there is an issue with your model files and you should send them to me to look at: agutgopostal at hotmail dot com.

Re: Quake 1 Weapons
The package you sent me was spot on:
You did fine. BTW, there's a program called UnrealFX that will let you look at the model as a .3d file and see if there is corruption before you compile it. Don't over complicate things for yourself. About the textures it appears they are not clamping correctly at the edges. That may be an artifact from the conversion.
