www.maxim.com

Lol, just google for modelling sites, and you will find alot with nice examples and tutorials

by **Jonny_12** » Mon Aug 15, 05 12:37 pm

Thanks, I'll do that. But I'm not looking how to make them I was just wanting a site where they might be for download

by **clyzm** » Mon Aug 15, 05 8:39 pm

Wow, you're cheap. Do you even know how to import them into DX, or do you just want them for fun?

google Clan of Dead Goat.

I don't no how to import them, but I could probably learn

I don't know any modelling archives for Deus Ex except this one:
http://www.planetdeusex.com/endemia/

If you really want to learn modelling (or at least how to work with them) you have to learn MilkShape3D
http://www.swissquake.ch/chumbalum-soft/

More about adding custom meshes here:

Sources of obtaining models for you mod:
0. Ask other mod (like Cassandra, Redsun, Zodiac and etc) authors for permissions and grab models from there.
1. Grab models from other games (you can find a lot of plugins for conversion on MS3D page) - most of mods do that a lot.
2. Grab models from model archives. There is a lot of in the internet. Google is your friend in this case.
3. Make your own model. Yes, it is not easy.

Hope that helps.

Although Milkshape 3D isn't a very good tool for modeling and importing in DX, mind you it's low polygon model design. I would recommend 3dsmax 7.

Oh, and if you're thinking about importing a CS weapon, good luck, it's hard as hell and the results come out frustrating.

Yea, 3DSMAX was and is and probably will be a leader in 3D designing software.

But does it contain a built in feature of exporting to Unreal format? I just don't know.

And its quite hard to learn (but there's a lot of docs and tutorials) and its not free. I still haven't managed to crack it properly

by **clyzm** » Wed Aug 17, 05 1:12 pm

It contains a .3ds to Deus Ex format converting, I just haven't found it yet. I think you need to download it. As for cracks, I'm still trying to crack it!

by **Jonny_12** » Wed Aug 17, 05 5:07 pm

well thanx for the advice on making my own ones but I'm still just an amature mapper. I've got the hand of conversations and stuff but I think I'll stick to asking other people for modles or skins

by **clyzm** » Wed Aug 17, 05 5:16 pm

Then you're considered a ripper, not a modeler.

by **Jonny_12** » Wed Aug 17, 05 5:18 pm

Yeah a ripper or wotever...

I'm going to try and download a few modles off of that guys site that daedalus mentioned

by **clyzm** » Wed Aug 17, 05 5:20 pm

John the Ripper :p

www.google.com - Google clan of dead goat. Some awesome weapon models.

ok thats gd....but how do u get them in to ur map...i followed tack and it didnt work

by **Alistair** » Fri Aug 19, 05 2:12 pm

Tack doesn't work exactly, it is a HTML format page but if you follow the instructions and learn the commands in depth you will be fine.
