monsoontide Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 I've set up my vehicle model as correctly as I can with a .veh file, a .npc file and *driver tag, but when I try /npc spawn vehicle myvehiclename I get Skin Name Exceeds MAX_QPATH Please help me solve this. I am but steps away from adding a new vehicle for Jedi Academy. Thanks Monsoontide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sights0d Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 I am having the same problem with a skin for a swoop... same message. All I can get to show up is a swoop that is untextured... just a white swoop with no markings. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monsoontide Posted October 10, 2003 Author Share Posted October 10, 2003 O.K. here's the solution to get rid of the Skin Exceeds MAX_QPATH error I was building all my stuff in D:games/lucasrts/Jedi_Academy/GameData/Base/Models/Players/*modelname* and even though I set all the path names in the .qc file and skin file etc to just models/players/*modelname*, for some reason, the compiler still takes into account all the other stuff! Since the MAX_QPATH is apparently only 64 characters this was causing the problem. So smiply create the directory structure C:models/players/*modelname* and put everything in there then compile the model (NOTE: the textures won't show up in MD3 view properly) Export the GLM Then shift the folder to your Jedi_Academy folder and everything should show up properly!!! May need to experiment with it a bit. However, now, while I no longer get the error, my model still spawn invisible and crashes the game when I try to get on it!
