Accidents happen. You only needed to explain that you uploaded the wrong one, and Ashura would have probably said "okay that makes more sense" and we could move on.

And you're just telling us this now? If you uploaded the original model than the accusation holds true, that it was in fact the exact model. His post was harsh, yes. But you didn't even point out that it was the original model until just now. I don't doubt you were able to do something like this in one day, after messing around in Vectary myself it makes things very quick. No harm there. Again, I encourage you to use this method to keep learning. If you give up after someone accuses you of copying work, then you just appear guilty.

If you were given a picture of a cartoon character and a pencil and a stack of paper and told to recreate the picture to the best of your ability with unlimited tries and final product as to be done from scratch, what do you do first? You'd probably trace the original picture a few times right? To get the feel of how the character is drawn. Then you move on to doing it without tracing, because the rules state it has to be done by your own hand, not the original artist's. Since you had unlimited tries, tracing it in the beginning is not a problem, and is expected for you to learn. Same applies here. Tracing and using the original model is fine and encouraged. But to take that and claim it as your own and from scratch was just completely false. That's the issue people have here. Using the process to learn things was great, that site looked really cool. The fact that you did that project within like 1 day was impressive, hence me asking what site it was because I wanted to also check it out. The fact that the original model is a port makes it worse because you would have been fine by just keeping this a port request. Nobody cares as much as you are making it seem regarding asking for ports. It only becomes an issue if you submit ported content to our file section, which that whole situation was handled almost a year ago now. The point of this whole thing was to question your mindset on claiming that model as your own, and instead use it as a learning stepping stone to actually creating it from scratch. I encourage you to work towards making a version without "tracing" the original. It'll take a bunch of tries I'm sure but it would be rewarding and you could actually say you made it from scratch.

You are correct. Our rules are linked below. Read under the section titled "File Submission Rules" https://jkhub.org/page/rules.html

Saying you made a model from "scratch" by tracing an existing model is kind of a stretch, wouldn't you say? And also seems kind of pointless. You may as well just use the original model, no?

What tutorial and modeling site did you use?

The project rate has to be changed as well. Otherwise it will just revert to what it was when you opened it, because that's what the project is set to when opening. You don't have to use the resample function, this method should suffice, from my experience.

Are you changing the project's sample rate down in the bottom left of Audacity?

We have most JKA mods here on JKHub already, and any others that weren't brought here are archived at this site: http://mrwonko.de/jk3files/ Unless you know you have stuff that is super hard to find, I'd assume it's already in these two places. Or moddb.

Ah makes sense. My bad. Don't listen to me.

Oh true. That's the one you want. I think numBlades 0 is also needed in addition to the above, but I could be wrong.

The Witness is 75% off on Steam right now. $10 for US people. http://store.steampowered.com/app/210970/The_Witness/

Add numBlades 0 to the sab file.

You can edit the hitbox of an NPC and vehicle as in, the size of it, in the NPC and VEH files. But you can't change how the hitbox works without code changes. There is a command to show the boxes ingame but I totally forget what it is and can't find it anywhere.

Again, not true at all. I have tons of map PK3s in my base named something different than my server does, and they work perfectly fine.

Don't be lazy. Finding new mods is the funnest part about JK2 and JKA, in my opinion. Go look through our files section and find stuff that you think would be cool to try out. PK3s are easy to install and uninstall, so its about as easy as it can get. If you limit yourself to what others use, then you're missing out on the fun part of JKA.

Wouldn't that mean it loads in normal order? If it overrides, then its loading those after the ones before it. Or does it load in reverse and it just skips things that are already loaded?

One z should suffice. If it doesn't, then that means there's something interfering in-between the assets and your file. It's not like the game checks for how many Z's you have.

The game loads PK3 files in alphabetical order, which means the asset0-3.pk3 files are loaded first, and anything that comes after that alphabetically are loaded after, and overwrite anything that is the same in the previous files. So if you have a mod that changes the skin of Tavion in a pk3 called aSkinOfTavion.pk3, it wouldn't overwrite anything because the assets are being loaded after it, thus overwriting the pk3. So, many people put the letter Z in their file name so it is loaded either last or as far down the list as possible, ensuring there are no conflicts with other mods that may change something theirs does. In my opinion, its a bad habit to get into. You should only put Z's in your file name if you know its going to cause issues with other common PK3s. Otherwise you should just name it something normal, and let the user put Z's on it if they need to. I like to keep my base folder as organized as possible, and I make sure only the pk3s with Z's are the ones that need it. Otherwise it just makes it harder to find things.

I currently don't have a Linux install right now so I can't check, but it should be fairly similar to the Steam release. What does the GOG install look like on your computer? As in file structure.
