need modeling help - MusicGoat - 06-28-2021

currently i have a model i would like to be the grenade model. however it doesnt show properly in hand. i know that the hand model is h_ok_grenade.iqm. i have very little understanding of blender and would hope somebody could do thishttps://www.dropbox.com/s/rf8bmpl8woip71s/bobomb.blend?dl=0https://www.dropbox.com/s/20y4f78gp5r9qwa/zzz-bobomb.pk3?dl=0

I don't think h_ok_grenade.iqm should be modified, unless you want to create new animations with this (keep in mind about h_*.iqm.framegroups and the bones! (Framegroups guide)

So, the animations of ok_grenade are:
h_laser hgrenade_fire    and
h_laser hgrenade_idle

AFAIK, v_ok_grenade.md3 is for third person view. Do you know, weirdly, this model is originally an IQM format? Strange, isn't it?

P.D. No news about Morphed. But there are news about weapon models guide in the wiki: https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic/-/wikis/Exporting-a-weapon-for-Xonotic

I just made a discovery! h_ok_grenade.iqm is really a DPM file! I can't believe it! 

I decompiled in the game using modeldecompile

There are *.smd files, looks like animation frames.
Weird stuff is happening in the modeling area.

(Imported .obj to Blender 2.79b looking what's inside)

The problem with formats lies in the game's code; model formats are hardcoded, meaning modellers can't use the actual format of their model and are forced to rename it to match the existing files.

I tried to change code of model formats for weapons. It doesn't work. The issue stays, the engine is still telling the same old format.
I reported this: https://github.com/DarkPlacesEngine/darkplaces/issues/39

This is somewhat of interest for me as well. Where do i actually find the textures to edit colors of weapons? (just for example). I tried decompiling some weapon models. But i don't seem to be able to find where the actual textures are located or at least get a .skin file.
