− | This '''Cosmetic Images''' tutorial will show you how to create images for cosmetics. For this tutorial, we will be putting the [[Team Captain]] on the [[Soldier]].
| |
− | == Setting up HLMV ==
| |
− | Please see the [[Help:Model_Viewer|Model Viewer]] page for instructions on setting up your model viewer if you haven't already.
| |
− | == Finding the models ==
| |
− | Once you have the model viewer open, you will first need to locate the correct class model.
| |
− | You can do this by going to {{code|file > (Steam) Load Model...}} and then navigating to {{code|\models\player\hwm}} (You should always use HWM models for cosmetic images as they are much higher quality).
| |
| | | |
− | Select the Soldier model to open it up in the model viewer.
| |
− |
| |
− | The model will most likely appear slightly off screen if this is the first time you have done this. If so, use {{key|MOUSE2}} to zoom and {{key|Shift}} + {{key|MOUSE1}} to pan the model so that you can get a better view.
| |
− |
| |
− | Once the model is in view, you'll need to equip the correct cosmetic.
| |
− | This is done by going to {{code|file > (Steam) Load Weapon...}}.
| |
− |
| |
− | Valve-made cosmetics are found in {{code|\models\player\items}}.
| |
− |
| |
− | Since we are using the Team Captain for this tutorial, go into the {{code|soldier}} folder and find {{code|soldier_officer.mdl}}. This will put the hat on soldier's head.
| |
− |
| |
− | As you can probably see now, the hat is poking through the Soldier's helmet. To fix this do the following:
| |
− | #Click on the {{code|model}} tab
| |
− | #In the first drop down menu, select {{code|hat}}
| |
− | #In the drop down menu next to that, select {{code|Submodel 1}}
| |
− |
| |
− | This will hide the soldier's helmet.

− | == Examples ==

− | Below are examples of what to do and what not to do when making cosmetic images.
