Apparently the game doesn't have a studiomdl, which would make model extraction hard to do (rather, impossible, from what I've heard).

yes i do

Then you need to update the location that is listed in Crowbar. Go to the first tab, pick a game, and go from there.

You're using too many materials, and/or there's a hiccup in the .QC (maybe a open bracket).

No, Crowbar doesn't create VMT or VTF files. You must do that separately. The only thing, in regard to materials/textures, that should be in the .QC is $cdmaterials and $texturegroup.

Use an image editing software to convert images to VTF format, and use a text editor to create the .VMT files. (I recommend Gimp and Notepad ++, respectively).

You can also use VTFEdit, too.

my bad. first time doing this with little to no instruction in terms of texturing and modeling.
thanks a bunch!

No worries, we've all been there. Good luck!

Sounds like you have too many .SMD or .VTA files. You might need to separate them into different .QCs, then connect them with the $includemodel line.

it works now thank you

No problem

could i just delete all the broken lines?

That could have some serious problems. I would double check the solution I gave above before you do something hasty like that.

Edit: Nvm.

It's not finding that file— that's what that error means. Either it's not in the right spot (according to that, it needs to be in the same place as the .QC), or it's spelled wrong.
