:rolleyes:

That's got nothing to do with UVs. It's a nonplanar face.

How the fuck can you have UV errors on a model that hasn't been mapped?

Meh, at least it looks less like an over-chamfered box now...

Re: W.I.P. Uzi

It's not even a smoothing error. It's called a non-planar face. It's a plane that stretches in three dimensions, which is not possible. In other words, it's a geometric nightmare.

It's not bad, but there is still a lot of small detail missing. For example, there is no magazine release.

Re: W.I.P. Uzi

You pretty much just need more reference images. Try www.modelguns.co.uk.

Or you can try Wikipedia. Just type in the gun name and scroll down to External Links. You can find a lot of good references for individual parts of the gun.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this gun was "Awww, ain't that a CUTE uzi?" I don't mean to sound offensive at all, but that's the first thing I thought. It actually looks very nice, but as previously mentioned, needs more detail in the places previously mentioned.

And I've never shot down a single crit personally (except snaf's :p) as a matter of fact i'd like to send a personal apology to snaf 4 all the arguments that we had. I realized that he was helping me loads and and helping me reach my full potential. I'd also like to thank you rossmum and evry1 else who's helped me improve. You were right! lol.

I can't remember... I think it was the animations not being correct. Could have been the shaders too, I don't remember right, I just know I had the same problem a while ago.

I did. Double check maybe? But why would errors with this particular model cause BOTH guns to show up with no FP? Pistol anims corrupted maybe? I dunno.

what are you talking about? if you put a different set of anims on your gun, a set that you know works correctly, and it fixes the problem of not seeing the gun, then the issue IS animations.

Well first off, you clearly need to learn how to speak proper English. You're no one to give advice on how to comprehend something if you can't even do it yourself. Secondly, you didn't state that it fixed your error until you were commenting on my comment, but we're not talking about the same problem I don't believe, I was talking as to why your model wasn't shwoing up, and I believe you were talking about an animation error you may have come across with the nodes. So there was nothing to understand.

Re: W.I.P. Uzi

Tell me the following :

-What exactly is (or was) the "nodes do not match" error? I want a direct c+p from tool.
-What is the hierarchy of the nodes of your FP model on export? A max printscreen would be nice.
-What is the hierarchy of the nodes of your TP model on export? Same as above.
-Does your weapon reference an animation tag for third person? If so, which?

Specific to the pistol animation set, have you tried extracting the fp.model_animations with HEK+?
