JMS Files go in the DATA folder. .tags (like a gbx model tool spits out) would go in the TAGS folder.
So say your making a weapon named hello, for making the model your cammand for tool would be:

Code: Select all

tool.exe model weapons\hello
then tool would spit out the gbx model at this directory starting with the tags folder in the Halo CE Folder:

Code: Select all

tags\weapons\hello
You might need to make shaders. Watch the hek Tutorial videos to learn this kind of work.
and by bumping topcis i mean dont post in a topic that was posted 5 months ago without anyposts. like this topic.
........dont ask for tag converting help........

(forgive me for triple posting) but using the above directories could you make an example of how to convert teapot.JMS to a gbx file? and tell me if the model teapot.JMS is in the right directory and where to find the gbx model tool would spit out.

if anyone can help it would be so much appreciated

-thanks
