Shaders on models???

[Kaden Dark]

Does anyone know if shaders on models work .. eg. a shiny suface

 

i have tried to do this the old way with a .shader and .skin refering to it but it doesnt seem to work

It should - the models with flowing robes are using shaders.

 

Look at the mon model or one of the dark jedi models - see how those are put togather texture wise.

Most definitely possible. Half the models in Quake 3 have shaders on them. One is pretty much nothing but a shader (the translucent blue Bones).

 

As to how to do them, no idea. I'm not a skinner or modeler. :\ Check out Polycount for tutorials on it.
