Print Screen it on Milkshape, ctrl+v it to mspaint, save as .png, upload it here. Would make solving your problem more easy.

I'll upload an example of one of mine.

you dont need a pic my problem is it wont show INGAME i can pick it up off a brick but when i select it to make it mount my hand it dosent mount anywere..

thats my problem

and why would you want to see a pic of my model in MS3D?
as i said in the "First post" i have the mountPoint and muzzlePoint and i have texture its got texure
it just dosent show ingame

pluse i us photobooth to upload pics :P

[Blastdown]

Showing me the model would be able to tell me if this problem you are having is model-related. It could either be a model-related problem, or script-related problem. So, either post your script or show a picture. You need to SHOW us what is wrong, not just tell us.

[Deathwish]

He can't show you; though the item appears normal it fails to mount to the player at all, this is most likely a script problem.

uh ok
i named it testgun becuase welll i was testing a gun.. just to make sure the model would work :P
and i also changed the gun file

I don't know if you purposely intended to name it that, but I don't think you wanted to name it 'testegun'.

I don't know if you purposely intended to name it that, but I don't think you wanted to name it 'testegun'.

well i didnt pick a name for it so i just called it testgun in the script the .dts was testgun

so yes thats what i wanted to call it untill i finished :/

[Blastdown]

I think he means that you named it wrong.
"testegun", when he thinks you were after "testgun".

[Aware14]

oh... i see lol ill try that after school

[Aware14]

thanks lol i cant belive i missed that and i also found another problem TY
