The easiest way to do this s... [more]	10	2055	Mar 30, 2008 06:12 pm by shookone

Static meshes: Texturing problems Call of Duty 4 : CoD4 MP Mapping Two questions: 1) When I test run my map the static meshes are all untextured. Do thier textures need to be included in an .iwd or something? It seems that the models themselves are integrated into the fastfile, so why not the textures? 2)All the mo...

Where does the compiler put the .ff files? Call of Duty 4 : CoD4 MP Mapping Thats what I thought, but it is not putting it there. Would it put them anywhere else, or is it simply just not making the .ff in this case?... [more]	5	1471	Mar 24, 2008 10:18 pm by shookone
