Im wanting to add skins like these to my server (L4D skins)
http://techknowmodels.19.forumer.com/viewforum.php?f=18

How do i go about doing this to make it perfectly setup for my Zombiemod Escape server?

I added the smoker, hunter, and witch as zombie skins just for admins on my server, and i get an error on my server console and my server wont start..

I tried following the Zombie Reloaded User Manual. It was hard as hell to follow cuz it doesnt explain much for noobs like me. Ive setup many CS:S servers before, but not a zombie escape..

You got a lot of errors there..

This is the area in my models.txt file i edited for the custom admin zombie skins..

// Special model examples:
// -----------------------

// Only admins can use this zombie model.
"admins"
{
"name" "smoker"
"path" "models/player/techknow/left4dead/"
"team" "zombies"

}

}
{
"name" "witch"
"path" "models/player/techknow/left4dead/"
"team" "zombies"
"access" "group"
"group" "admins"
}



Isnt that right? or do i need to put them in seperate directories/folders? Not all in the left4dead folder?

[Ren3gade]

I got my server up and running with those errors still in console. When i went to turn into zombie my game crashed and it said something about missing hunter.mdl? and some other stuff. I know it is in there..

Can anyone help me by looking at my server? i need help..

[eDga_nmc]

You need to type in "name" "witch" <- model name, not your random name from the random cartoon

Originally Posted by eDga_nmc You need to type in "name" "witch" <- model name, not your random name from the random cartoon

I did this..

Is it because i have the "admin" above the classes? Should i delete that? or keep it?

Idk what to put there.. so i just put "admin"

then all the classes.

[Ren3gade]

Okay.. so here is my console errors.

What is wrong with it? I made an admin group names "admins" so that group can use these classes/skins.

Let's wait for others to answer

In your models.txt, at the "name" of each model, are the names the same as the .mdl file for this skin?

If they aren't you simply have to name them after the .mdl file for the skin.

If this doesn't work, check that all of the directories are valid and all of the files needed are there too.

It's a syntax error. You need to have a name before every section (that is groups of { ... }). The admin_zombie model has a section name, but not those below it.

// Special model examples:
// -----------------------

// Only admins can use this zombie model.
"admin_zombie"
{
    "name" "smoker"
    "path" "models/player/techknow/left4dead/smoker/"
    "team" "zombies"
    "access" "group"
    "group" "admins"
}

"typeAName1"
{
    "name" "hunter"
    "path" "models/player/techknow/left4dead/hunter/"
    "team" "zombies"
    "access" "group"
    "group" "admins"
}

"typeAName2"
{
    "name" "witch"
    "path" "models/player/techknow/left4dead/witch/"
    "team" "zombies"
    "access" "group"
    "group" "admins"
}

Use indention and spaces so it's easier to read and spot errors.
