[Question] Could somebody teach me all of this?

(1/3) > >>

Herbalism:
Hey

So, I'm Herb, I've been World building for about a year now or something about that,  but I want to expand in WoW modding.

I've recently taken a look at the Modelling & Animation section and I've been very impressed with all of the models and such that has been made here and I thought "Hey, what if I could make those things too?"
So, I'm basically asking one of you great people 'round here to spare some time to teach me how to do all this. I'd be forever grateful!

Thanks,
Herbalism

you can start with this http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D ... f_Contents
the importer is at this link (for 3.x) http://www.ridiculousx.net/Projects/M2Mod3.zip
now you can begin to do some simple edit as i did viewtopic.php?f=9&t=600

i'm not so skilled in blender to do a guide, but the importer is simple to use

Herbalism:
Thanks a lot, I bet this is just what I needed to get started :D I'll post with some of my progress later, thanks!

edit: Okay, so i'm using M2Mod3 and I get the following error:

error: failed to load SKIN, file is corrupt.

it loads the model and everything fine, i fixed that in the configurations but for some reason, the SKIN file doesn't work. I have it in the same folder as the m2 model but... yeah, what should I do?

doresain:
when you use m2mod on a .m2 file you need all the .skin files (and i extract all .anim too)
you must use the updated m2 model (estract it From patch*.MPQ) or your model can give a //132 error
remember that if you add a vertex you must attach it on a bone to show (and animate) it in game

Herbalism:
Alright great, I got the M2 to work, i got the M2I now. But when I try to start up Blender, i get some sort of error that "Blender has met a problem and has to shut down" or something like that. What should I do? I have it on my external harddisk, "F:", would that have something to do with it?
i tried running it as administrator, I use windows xp
