how can i convert Kf 2.0 models to Ut2004

[darkonxy]

i was wondering how do i convert Kf ppl models to Ut2004 models
cause id love to use them

[Dragontear]

I found that putting the relavent files in UT04's corresponding folders worked.

Just make sure that they don't overwrite anything.

thanks man it worked like a charm
oh by the way how do i port masterson on to ut2004

as a playable character? You'd probably have to do some rigging and editing to get him into it, since he's not meant ot be a playable character really (as far as I know) so he'd probably have to be actually worked on and saved as a seperate file so he works in UT2004.

Currently Masterson is just like how a zombie is set up. You can't play as them, but they are there and have their own little role in this small world. To get them playable, you would have to code them in, I believe everything else should be set up. As long as you import his animations, skins and models(etc etc), and code, he should work.

there i found Mastersons textures is there any way for me to overlay these textures over a existing model?
im planing on overlaying this on Cpl powers

[mrmedic]

Put him in the map. Right click > Properties > Display > skins > (Select the masterson skin) > use.

Actually, the masterson model fits exactly over the soldier animations, so if you have a ucl file, and set the skin to use the masterson skin and the body to use the masterson model, then it works just fine, sans any code.

Will other people see it on public servers?

By the way! I'm making a 3D Player Model just for the fun of it, instead of taking ALL the animations and remaking each and everyone of them, is there a way I can take the animations from KF and just slap them onto mine? Well, I am sure there is a way, but anyone know how to do it? I was just gonna basically make a brand new skin, same old animations kinda deal and just see how it works out.

Only if they have the UCL file, AFAIK. Which is kinda unfortunate, since it defaults to Jakob if they don't. Maybe when we all get the SP done we can package the UCL file with the mod, but make it not recognizable by the game as a useable skin until you beat the SP campaign. That way, people who have beaten the game can use it and it will be seen, but people who haven't can't use it.

1) Add the UCL file to the serverpackages as optional. There, they can download it if they WANT to see the character, or skip it if they dont.
2) Why don't you just use what ut2004 did with Xan and Malcom? It IS recongiseable(You can use it if you dont beat the game with the .ini), but just can't use it until you beat the game.

thanks
the skin works ;D

Yea, youve said that like six times now.
I like the idea of having to unlock Masterson, even tough i hate playing alone.. fucking SP .

[Doyora]

But the old masterton model looks poor in comparison to the new characters. I'm sure people have said this before.
