So, I've been playing around with the .ini files for the custom characters and have successfully taken parts from one character and added them to another character. For example: Cats + WH40K (both acquired from skin city. [br][img width=800 height=500]../../files/public/1215394622_244_FT0_temp_.jpg[/img][br] In the above pic, I used the Cats model and added parts form the WH40k model by adding lines to the .ini file. Now, all looks well in the character modification screen, but in-game, anything that was not natively with that character shows up as black. This is the part that stumps me. I would assume that this black texture on all non-native geometry is because the material from WH40K parts is not being apploed to the Cats model. I don't quite get it. The materials and meshes are stored in a .upk file in myDocument/my Games/UT3/Cooked PC/Custom Chars/. The models that can use the parts with the materials applied use a .ini file in its own directory, inside the path above. So, it seems that the mesh should already have the material assigned to it, but that is not the effect I'm seeing when I try this mix and match. Any ideas? |

Well you are mixing 4 different characters together. |

I think SB's right, I don't know if that could be worked around... Unless strings could be cloned..? eg: have two lines for a part, with different families. I'm a complete novice with coding tbh, I've only added descriptions to the COG soldiers in UT3. |

Actually, pants, just mixing 2 together: WH40K and Cats. SB and Jerry, you were right about the families; at least I know that the families have some influence. I cloned each line for each part, with one line assigned to the family for the WH40K family and the other line assigned to the Cats family. Starting with the Cat model in UT3, if I add the WH40K torso, everything else that was part of the Cats model is black, except for the head, but WH40K parts look normal. If I add any other WH40K parts in addition to the torso, those WH40K parts also look normal. However, if I add WH40K parts to the Cats model without including the torso, all the Cats parts look normal and the WH40K parts look black. Here's modified the .ini for the Cats model, if you're interested. Somehow, though, some rodent arms and legs made it in when I modify the character in UT3, but I don't see how...

You'd think that much weight on her arms and shoulders would make her skinny legs buckle from standing, let alone running around with a flag and a rocket launcher. |
