Default Re: 3D modeling

1) Do the models have to be a certain size, or does the game work off the completed image (TIFF, bmp, jpg, etc.)?

A-They have to be a certain size....I forget the number pixels but 4 kb for a "mini" and 49 kb for a "portrait" IIRC.

2) Is there a model viewer out there, ala Q3A or Unreal Tournement? Are Moray .mdl files the same as Quake model files?

A-Beats the heck outta me, I'm just starting this 3-D modeling stuff myself.

The game work with completed .bmp files, You'll need to use the render function to save them as .bmp and then size and rename them for the game. You can find the information for sizes and names in your manual.

Morays models only open in moray, They are different than quake .mdl
