Modview error

[inbredyokel]

Whenever I attempt to open a glm file in modview, I get an error message saying "Filesystem call made without initialization." Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

you mean this one:

 

?

 

I just posted the same question not 10 mins ago.

 

Here's hoping someone knows what's up...

[inbredyokel]

That would be the one. I'm guessing something like this would get answered pretty quickly in the modeling forum...I'm going to post a thread.

A little help please....anyone?

Hi,

 

Some things for you to check;

 

1. Is Modview installed to the

 

GameData\Tools

 

Directory?

 

---------------------------------

 

2. Have you extracted the

 

_humanoid.gla

 

and the

 

animation.cfg

 

files (from the assets0.pk3 in the base directory) to the

 

/GameData/base/models/players/_humanoid

 

directory

 

---------------------------------

 

3. Is the model you are trying to view in the

 

/GameData/base/models/players/MODELNAME?

 

Directory?

 

NOTE: do not put .pk3's in there the model has to be uncompressed to work with all textures and .skin files pointing to the right files.

 

---------------------------------

 

I think the error you are getting is because your are trying to open a .glm that is not in the

 

/GameData/base/models/players/

 

Directory,.......But I could be wrong.

That did the trick. Thank you, sir.

[inbredyokel]

I've got the MODVIEW V 2.5. I've followed every direction out there to get the viewer going. But everytime I've done what is said and I goto load a model.glm and I get an error:

 

Model name XXXXXXX/_humanoid/model.glm exceeds MAX_QPATH.

 

I'm using Skins for JA and not JK, so that the only diffrence in the directions. Any help on getting it going on JA?

It means the current folder structure that you're holding the files in is too big. either reduce the number of subdirectories they are in or shrink the folder name sizes.
