Different eyes for personality cores
Ok, so I'm sure this must have been covered before, but I can't seem to find a reasonable answer for an absolute newbie like myself.

What I want to know is this: is there a way to custom-make cores with different eye colours and designs and use them in SFM WITHOUT MAYA?

Like I said, I am an absolute newbie to the way Source works: I don't know what the differance is between a skin and a model etc., so please bear with me if you have to 'dumb your answers down'.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

While I don't know the answer to this and it's best if you asked a Portal 2 SFMer like Harry101UK, I can tell you an easy difference between a skin and a model:

Skin: A different texture FOR a model.

Model: A mesh that a TEXTURE is applied to.

Example: A demoman is a model. Red and Blu colors for the demoman are skins.

Yeah, that's what I thought it might be.

Thanks very much for clearing that up, Slypear.
So I'd be right in thinking that Wheatley, Space Core, Craig and Rick share the same model, but use different skins for the eyes.

However, I still can't seem to find the skins for these cores, let alone make my own.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Like I said before, it's best for you to personally ask Harry101UK, as he has lots of experience in this field. He's usually always in the OSFM group chatroom. :)
