October 25, 200322 yr OK here goes, i downloaded full steam install and full FA 2.8 (yeah BIG d/ls)i have been trying to reskin FA for some time now but even though i copy the models into the right folders (overwriting any prompts), it doesnt display them in game (keeps the old models) and this is annoying me ALOT :x :x :x :x Also it wont accept any maps that i install (manually, itll take if the server downloads it), sprites or sounds that i want to change, i have tried deleting the file, restartign the PC and then reinstalling the new files to no avail, and even though they are in the folder, the game still d/ls them from the servers.i thought maybe it was steam protecting the files in some way, so i tried to shut down steam, checked the task manager for remaints of steam and in processes there was steam.exe, i endtasked and reskinned, restarted steam to find that it had lost all the games and that it was being really nasty about getting them all back (thats sorted now tho)Tell me, the folder for hte models is still SEIRRA\halflife\firearms\models isnt it?So, you guys have any ideas as to how to get my models back to pukka status? i would really like to know because i have an awsome knife model that i would LOVE to reinstall!
October 25, 200322 yr No No way off track your looking in the place you have to go to your program files first.models folder is C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\your@emailaddy\half-life\firearms\modelsmap folder is C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\your@emailaddy\half-life\firearms\mapsIf you need anything else ask me
October 25, 200322 yr Author Fantastic guys, i didnt respond because i was already late for work, and have been there until now =/Thanks guys, apologies for not posting earlier!
October 25, 200322 yr Author also while i am here, does this mean that teh h/l and FA folders in the c:\SEIRRA\halflife folder are now redundant?
October 25, 200322 yr pretty much...but I'd keep em, you never know what files Steam is using from it
October 25, 200322 yr Kind of.If you play on steam servers only you dont need that folder , but if you play on any Won server of any mod you'll need that classical instalation.
October 25, 200322 yr in case you didnt know there is actually a second set of crosshairs in the system you just have to change them out
