Ok you need a clean map or at least the gun or object that your replacing the model of needs to have not been touched. Then you import your model over it and save the meta in a folder all by itself. Then click add to map and browse for the folder and click the filder so the icon is an open folder now. Then you hit ok and wait about 30 seconds and then a box should pop up that says "done!". then your done injecting the model

I read the tutorial and did everything as it says, but problem is that nothing happens when I click add to map.

Make sure that when you click add to map that you browse to your folder containing the meta you want to add and then clikc it so it looks open and then inject. It will look like nothing is happening for about 30 seconds then itll say done thats it.

Only thing i can think of is that its not a clean model that ur injecting over.

sundriedprawn · Post by **sundriedprawn** » Sat Feb 11, 2006 4:55 pm

remember it has to have the same amount of lods as the original

dos mes · Post by **dos mes** » Sat Feb 11, 2006 7:25 pm

Thats y i just dup an fp_gun and then model it. And replace the other objects model with it by swapping dependencies becasue it only has one lod.
