ALICORN MAKE A BOUNCE HOUSE AS A PONY AND MAKE IT A

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:20am

That is one command. After you type that, you press Enter.
The studiomdl execution is another command.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:19am

Okay, so type in that, then studiomdl along with the rest of the path to it?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:17am

No.

cd C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\team fortress 2\bin

Then you can run studiomdl.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:17am

okay so I type in cd studiomdl.exe -game "<path>C:\Program Files (x86)\steamapps\common\team fortress 2" <path>/tf/materials/models/oc/thunderbird/thunderbird.qc?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:14am

On the prompt. Type cd followed by the location where studiomdl.exe is located.

Make sure this appears before you start studiomdl.

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\team fortress 2\bin>

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:11am

Yes, I did, unless the cd directory has to point to the same direction where my oc's qc is

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:10am

Are you sure you are running studiomdl from the right folder?

Did you do cd to the correct directory? You probably forgot to do that.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:08am

yes

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:07am

Yes, that is what I meant. The error that appears in the prompt, is it the default "is not recognizable" error?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:05am

It doesn't appear in a box, it appears in the command prompt. which is like I said, sorry, I am a newb at this stuff.

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:04am

So let me get this straight, to see if I understand.

The error that appears is the default Windows error. The "is not recognizable" error.

Right?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:02am

yup. Something like that. :/

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 11:02am

So the program doesn't even run, is what you're saying?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:59am

Doesn't say. It just say's it can't find the file specified It says nothing about not finding the studiomdl.exe or my qc file for my oc....It's like with every step forward, theirs five thousand different issues that keep me from it....

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:57am

What file does it say it can't find?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:55am

What do you mean?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:54am

What is the output of studiomdl?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:52am

Okay, I did that again, and the command prompt still won't locate it....

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:51am

Yes.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:50am

I moved the pony source files to my desk top and should I write it like this?
"C:\Users\Will24Blight\Desktop\ponies_source"

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:48am

That is in the command prompt. In the .qc you write where the source files are located.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:47am

So to set up the paths I type in steamapps\common\team fortress 2" <path>\tf\materials\models\oc\thunderbird

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:45am

It should work, yes.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:44am

That? No I didn't set it up. So I should set up the paths and it should work?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:41am

First line. Check the examples I posted way back.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:41am

Is that in the qc itself?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:36am

Does the $cd line in the .qc point to the right location?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:34am

I can go to the start meu and locate it easily. and I did look at where I placed it.

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:32am

Does the .qc file exist?
Can any of the files mentioned on the .qc be found on their respective locations?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:30am

It isn't any of the errors on the page. it just says The system cannot find the file specified

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:26am

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Compiling_a_model#Common_errors

Check this first. If you still have problems, let me know.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:24am

Okay, I put it into commant prompt and it's giving me a error that it can't be found....

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:22am

No.
It's more like this:

studiomdl.exe -game "<path>\steamapps\common\team fortress 2" <path>\tf\materials\models\oc\thunderbird\thunderbird.qc

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:20am

okay so I type it like studiomdl.exe -teamfortress2 <steamapps_common_teamfortress2_bin><tf_materials_models_oc_thunderbird_thunderbird.qc> ?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:17am

studiomdl.exe -game <path_to_game_folder> <path_to_qc_file>

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:16am

Hmm, okay, what do I type in command prompt? Sorry, I am kinda a newb at this. XD

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:15am

Run it from the command prompt. It needs parameters.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:15am

Okie, but when I try double clicking on Studiomdl it keeps flashing for a second onscreen and exiting out.

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:13am

StudioMDL automatically creates the .mdl file.

And yes, you can view it in the Model Viewer. Much easier than starting the game.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:12am

Okay, how do I make it a MDL file to view in model viewer. and btw, is Model Viewer apart of the process as well?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:09am

Not necessarily.

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Studiomdl

You need to indicate which game you are compiling for with the -game parameter. You can compile for TF2, the models work in Garry's Mod no problem.

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:09am

okay, I dragged and dropped it into the studiomdl and it fashed in screen with the command prompt and exited out, is that suppose to happen?

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:03am

Alright and to compile, I just drag the .qc into the studiomdl? Correct?

rcmero [author] 17 Sep, 2014 @ 10:01am

<path_to_steam>\steamapps\common\team fortress 2\bin\studiomdl.exe

Ms.Angeline V A L V E 17 Sep, 2014 @ 9:59am

Okay, where is the path to the tf2 one?

Garry's Mod
