Quote:
  1. Create a .bat file with any text editor.
  2. Place the .bat file in the folder with the .iqes you exported.
  3. Place the iqm.exe into the folder as well.
  4. In the .bat file add the following: iqm.exe umbra.iqm mesh.iqe jump.iqe run.iqe (and the rest of the anims). Add the line; pause to the bttom of the file.
  5. Now run the .bat file using wine or windows to finally get your iqm.

As I don't have access to a Windows machine to test this, but i think the .bat should look like this:
Code:
iqm.exe umbra.iqm mesh.iqe jump.iqe run.iqe [include the rest of the animation filenames here]
pause

Yep.. why?

RE: Problem making a new charater - DiaboliK - 01-20-2011

You can directly export to iqm using the exporter. In the exporter put a path to some directory and give the model a name with the iqm extension for example /path/to/umbra.iqm

Then put all the anims in order from one of the framegroups file like this one: http://git.xonotic.org/?p=xonotic/xonotic-data.pk3dir.git;a=blob_plain;f=models/player/erebus.iqm.framegroups;hb=HEAD

And then export with mesh and bounding boxes selected.

Is it possible to ease the creators of the players by doing a tutorials from images or video? Because I came across on errors and I do not know how to solve them!

Still I think we(The beginers of that) need a extend tutorial with video or pics(to make the IQM file with the needed anims and the other needs).
