Make of and import of custom meshes to UT

[Gustavo6046]

Can I specify animations from other meshes? Or put multiple animations in a single mesh?

You can do it with MilkShake.

How?

I never exported animations and never made before, but this vid could help you

[Gustavo6046]

Wait. An example for Blender:
Keyframe 1 (0, start of Animation 1) - Animation 1 (say 60) - keyframe 2 (60) - Keyframe 3 (61, start of Animation 2) - Animation 2 (50) - Keyframe 4 (111)

But now the problem is I put it in UnrealTournament\GusPack\Classes\Skins\texture2.pcx but the compiler keep saying the texture don't exist!
UC code:

Code: Select all

class PlasmaCannon expands TournamentWeapon;

#exec MESH IMPORT MESH=PlasmaCannon ANIVFILE=MODELS\PlasmaCannon_a.3d DATAFILE=MODELS\PlasmaCannon_d.3d X=0 Y=0 Z=0
#exec MESH LODPARAMS MESH=PlasmaCannon STRENGTH=0.4
#exec MESH ORIGIN MESH=PlasmaCannon X=0 Y=0 Z=0 PITCH=0 YAW=0 ROLL=0

#exec MESH SEQUENCE MESH=PlasmaCannon SEQ=All STARTFRAME=0 NUMFRAMES=30
#exec MESH SEQUENCE MESH=PlasmaCannon SEQ=Still STARTFRAME=0 NUMFRAMES=1 RATE=1.0
#exec MESH SEQUENCE MESH=PlasmaCannon SEQ=Fire STARTFRAME=0 NUMFRAMES=30 RATE=2.0

#exec MESHMAP NEW MESHMAP=PlasmaCannon MESH=PlasmaCannon
#exec MESHMAP SCALE MESHMAP=PlasmaCannon X=0.03 Y=0.03 Z=0.06

#exec TEXTURE IMPORT NAME=Jtex2 FILE=Skins\texture2.pcx GROUP=Skins LODSET=2 MIPS=OFF
#exec MESHMAP SETTEXTURE MESHMAP=PlasmaCannon NUM=1 TEXTURE=Jtex2

defaultproperties
{
    DrawType=DT_Mesh
    Mesh=PlasmaCannon
}

Im on phone and i might not be awake at 6m cause I have 2 exams soon XD
but anyway if think you wrong the path, the textures have nothing to do with classes so the right path might be before Unreal Tournament/GusPack/Skins/texture2.pcs

I remembered having same problems with textures and file paths, if the problem persists, try writing the absolute path in the .uc
Plus I did it with Textures folder and not Skins folder.

[Gustavo6046]

Read the UC code. That didn't work and putting absolute path wouldn't let it work in other locations, it has to be included with my pack like any custom content I make.

When I export a model from Blender, it gets tiny on UEd and UT. How to fix this?
Please be quick because there is a Lesser Brute trying to get me!

Yeah true XD

[Gustavo6046]

Why are Blender models tiny in Unreal?

I'm so sorry for your lesserbrute
Anyway, I had same problem, I actually fixed it on the default properties of the code containing the mesh, putting the dimension of the mesh on a bigger value.
