I tried to add the Kyle hilt to my private mod pack but i saw this ingame :

Pretty sure they work the same, but it looks like that model may be missing the blade tag, so the blade is defaulting to the 0 coordinate instead.

is it possible that the problem is that the original kyle saber have md3 files but this version only have 1 glm ? 

[Circa]

No, because the md3 files are for uses other than the player weapon, I believe. I could check the model later tonight to test my theory, but if you open it in Blender and look for the blade tag, it's either not there, or JK2 doesn't use the blade tag and the model just needs to be moved to the 0,0,0 coordinates so 0 is where the blade should start.

i tried another hilts (rooxon's kyle hilt) same happened. 

[Circa]

Had a look in Blender, everything looks perfect. Not sure why it's doing that then.

[Psyk0Sith]

Maybe try this to isolate the problem...use default Kyle model and if it's single player, also start a new game.

So in order to make it work you'll have to rename the tag.

[Teancum]

For non-modelers, this can be done in a hex editor as well given that the tags have the same character length.

given that the tags have the same character length.

 

You can modify the length of the name as long as the file size and length is not altered. Check this for details:

If you can help me,i would be very happy 

 

*Edit

I renamed the blade1 tage to flash but when i saved the glm in blender,blender jsut did not rename it. 

 

[GPChannel]

Maybe can somebody help please?

Hex edit it. Open it in some free Hex editor from the web. type over   f l a s h   with    b l a d e   . Done.

[Teancum]

So double post, but for information -- apparently tag_blade is actually tag_blade1. So a simple hex edit won't work due to a length change. It's faster just to import the models into Blender and change the tag name then re-export. Hex editing can be done, but it's faster to use Blender at this point.

Tompa edited the glm file and changed the tag_blade1 to tag_flash. not worked.

Fixed. Renamed tag blade1 to flash in Blender. Admins can close this thread. 

[GPChannel]

Yes renamed the blade1_0 tag to flash_0

And added name *flash
