Hi all, first off thanks again for everyone's help. I'm a bit stuck here & I REALLY need some help.

I'm using this tutorial as my guide.

I've got my model made in Maya & am trying to convert it but failing miserably.

Here's a screenshot of the shaders used for the model.

This is a screenshot of the files used for the model.

But I get this:

Converting 1 assets, reason: 'asset out of date'
Converting 'mds_mdl_metalgate' (xmodel 1 of 1)...
Converting xmodel 'F:\COD4mw\model_export/props\metalGates\mds_mdl_metalgate01.X
MODEL_EXPORT'...

************ ERROR ************
Can't find material [mds_mdl_metalgateclr01] in directory 'F:\COD4mw\raw/materia
l_properties/' or 'F:\COD4mw\raw/material_properties/'
aborting....


Conversion failed with 1 errors. Hit key to continue.

I've included a copy of the GDT & the .XMODEL_EXPORT file hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.

I've done everything possible except for rebuild the model. I even converted another file that I created just to see if assMan got corrupted. It's not.

I have thought about using a brush instead for this metal gate since it's a fairly simple shape- but I have other custom models that I would like to include.

So I would like to know what I'm doing wrong so I don't encounter them in the future...

Thanks in advance...
