Author Topic: Making Hats for Hatmod  (Read 5703 times)

Hello! I would like to make some hats for the Hatmod mod, but I'm not sure where to start, because I don't know if there is a template to use or anything, but I do have the right tools to model, so you can leave me be on that. I currently use Blender to model for Blockland, but if there's any template for modelling hats for hatmod somebody could show me, please do so ASAP. Thank you!

I saw a guide to add hats to it, i dont know where anymore.

Do you have any idea what website it was on or such?

I would just download the blockhead ref https://www.dropbox.com/s/ds5s8g0c1w04s28/Blockhead_Ref.obj?dl=1 and model your hat on that. When you're finished, just take the mountpoint from any other hat.

Thanks, but would you happen to know how to texture the model in Blender?

apply materials and name the materials the name of the color/texture file you want them to have. if you're using ports exporter, you can also adjust the material color setting and then have ports automatically generate a texture with that material name on export.

you can use the blender noob to pro wikibook to figure out how to properly make materials and apply them

however be aware that ports exporter doesnt export colors exactly as listed in blender - you'll likely need to go back and edit the texture files to get the exact right color. my guess as to why this is the case is cause port included considering some other material property when deciding the color to export.

Now, I have a cube on my head.


What it should look like:

Somebody please help me with this, I really need a solution to this.

I can make a tutorial when I have time. It's a really easy process.

Well, could you tell me the steps now at least? I wanna finish this ASAP.

Are you taking suggestions?

If you are, OP, heres two!


I'm not taking suggestions, I'm asking for help because my hat is a big white cube in-game.

Somebody please find a solution to this.
