It means the game/program where you have your current hlmv doesn't have access to the materials. If you placed your materials where it could read them, then it would show.

You need to compile it with a qc.

Save the textures in a format that supports transparency. PNG, for example.

Ah sorry, I'm not that familiar goldsource. :\

could you tell me where i find another studio.mdl to compile my models?

The problem isn't studiomdl, it's your qc. Unless you mean to compile those lines I was talking about.

Do you need them? Why did you put the lines there?

i'm having trouble compiling cry of fear models for source, they are missing textures.

The name of the materials in blender has to match the name of the vmts. The materials need to be in the same directory as the directory in the qc, and the vmts must share this vmt, too.

This is not a proper directory, as ":" cannot be used in the name of a folder. The materials directory starts after the materials folder, inside a mod folder.

Let's say our directory is: modfolder/materials/models/player/medic

Then our $cdmaterials line would look like: $cdmaterials "models/player/medic".

It's not gonna recognize the $texrednermode lines. You might need a tweaked studiomdl for that.

Sure thing.

I really wouldn't mess with the dir files. Your best bet is to recompile.

its not working but i think i know why

Probably because the game is using a higher mod folder, likely half life 2.

You could try changing the directory in $cdmaterials, recompile it, establish the new materials directory, and make sure you have the proper lua so it functions as a playermodel still.

^ Then you'll probably need to recompile the model so it reads your new materials instead. This can be a lengthy process, if you don't know what you're doing though. You would need to go and copy and edit all the vmts that the model needs.
