Resolved - Skins both weps an mini maps


Question

Posted (edited)

Name:R. Gilmore

Rank:SSgt.

Type of issue:Software/Steam

Brief Description of Issue:So I have followed all the directions for map downloads to get some mini maps up but I can't seem to load them in the actual game. Or weapons skins for that matter and axis skins....FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU . In fact I uninstalled the whole game and am reinstalling because I managed to screw up everything. PLEASE HALP!

Plus I am on a MAC and the last time I did all this it was simple as shit to do. I don't know why this time it's been so ridick.

I believe each minimap requires 3 files

dod/custom/any_folder/resource/overviews/map_name.txt

dod/custom/any_folder/materials/overviews/map_name.vmt

dod/custom/any_folder/materials/overviews/map_name.vtf

Are do you have all 3 files in the right locations?

I don't use custom weapon skins/models, but you should be creating files in these folders

.vmt and .vtf files in

dod/custom/any_folder/materials/models/v_models/weapon_name/

dod/custom/any_folder/materials/models/w_models/weapon_name/

.vtx, .mdl, .phy, .vvd in

dod/custom/any_folder/models/weapons

.wav in

dod/custom/any_folder/sound/weapons

and possibly some .vtf files in

dod/custom/any_folder/materials/sprites/scopes if it's a sniper riffle.

Obviously whatever you're downloading should already have the whole folder structure and you should just be extracting it into dod/custom/any_folder/ maybe your download already has the custom folder and you're accidentally putting the files into dod/custom/any_folder/custom/folder_from_zip or dod/custom/any_folder/folder_from_zip

I was able to get the Skin I wanted for Axis which is greaat I was missing a pathway to a /my_custom/ folder. However, I was still not able to get the Weapon skins as well as the Mini maps for hobofire and donner_extended to work.

Yes and no I was able to get the skin I wanted to work for Axis team. But other then that no, even with Lafy's help which was huuuuuge! I think you can close this though because for now I won't be looking to add more wep skins just yet.
