GidionTheDead Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Don't forget that the zip in question must be UNCOMPRESSED, or the game will not read the pk3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedantic Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Originally posted by bigDAN456 I did that now the file is called models.pk3.zip, how do I fix this? You just have to delete the .zip part when renaming it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapcomDave Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 same thing is happening to me and I dont know how to fix it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapcomDave Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 i got it working, you need to (depending on what OS you are running) disable the hide file extensions for known file types opinion. then you can delete the .zip part! I just merged a whole bunch of mods and made a sweet mod where you play as Vader in SP and fight the rebels. it's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where can I download that mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akshara Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 bigDAN... It's in the Folder Options section of windows. Honestly dude, if you don't know how to change that you shouldn't be messing around with this kinda stuff anyway. THERE IS A REALLY EASY WAY TO MAKE PK3 FILES... Goto this website, and download the program Pakscape... http://www.effiles.com/file.info?1327 It uses a drag and drop interface, so once you get the all your folders/files you want to put in a PK3 together, you just create a new document in Pakscape, and drag the whole lot of them into the Pakscape window. Then save it as a PK3, with everything automatically setup properly. No winzip. No file extension mess. Simple. Go Get It... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedantic Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Or you could just stick with WinZip, which seems a lot easier to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
