Yeah, it'll work, just make a better looking model and try flat shading it

[SuPeR Swat]

i flat shaded it like you said to in the tutorial but it didnt do anything to the model and any suggestions on how to make this look better?

[Masterlegodude]

Dunno, its your model, and the tutorial is kinda glitchy, it doesn't flatshade that well when you get the model in the game

If you're referring to my tutorial, it works.  I've posted proof positive.  If it doesn't work for you, you're doing something wrong.  Make sure you're using the newest version of MilkShape...I am.

[SuPeR Swat]

whats the newest version?

[Trader]

Check the MilkShape website.  Google it.

1.8.1b

My 1.8.1a is being glitchy, all shapes turn out fine, but the cylinder turns out completly black... I may need to get the newest version ya?

[SuPeR Swat]

my cyclinders dont come out black

[Trader]

Sometimes, even in the newest version, the materials do not appear correctly in the program.

[Masterlegodude]

Well, mine do, its glitched somehow, i was trying to make a shield grenade (using the a script to make a .dts when thrown, from the zom-b-gone tank), and i was making a weapon image, i made a cylinder, and it came out black instead of untextured white

[Trader]

Haha that can happen if your faces are turned backwards.  Also, if you mess with the 'emissive', 'specular', etc colors, that'll do it.

[SuPeR Swat]

is it ok if i still use 1.8.1a for my model? nvm

[SuPeR Swat]

how come my model doesnt show up in the game and someone said the sound doesnt come up every time i shoot? i guess my first add on was a failure :(

[SuPeR Swat]

does anyone know why?
