Propper Problem... SOLVED

[MayheM]

So i finally got around to taking a look at propper last night and I have to say I can not wait until I get this thing working. Problem is, I can't get it working.

Mr Happy was kind enough to assist me last night in getting it to at least begin the compile process, but it stops at creating the smd and QC files and never compiles the final mdl files or texture files. I believe it may have something to do with studiomdl not working correctly. Months ago i had tried working in XSI and when i tried to compile the map on my machine it would not work. the problem at that time was that the mod tools do not like 64 bit OS. So my question is, does Propper have the same dislike for 64 bit? Fortunately I have a 32 bit machine at home which I could compile the models on if that is the case, but I am taking guesses here as to why studiomdl is not creating the files...

Any Ideas?

Propper works fine on 64-bit windows 7.

hmm... ok, well that ig good and bad to hear, I was hoping it was that simple a fix to get this running.

I think what I will do is install proper on my laptop over the weekend and see if I can get it to compile the models. I am not sure what happened to my gamer/mapper at home, but it may be time for a clean install. I want to upgrade to Win 7 anyway, so that will give me a reason to do it...

Post the Propper log.

If it gave you qc and smd files, try running the qc with studiomdl and see what studiomdl spits out.

i never used propper since i keep thinking 3dsmax rocks if you push the right buttons

I got it working. I turned out to by my studiomdl was messed up on my gamer. Looks like it is time for a clean install. Once I installed the SKD and Propper on my laptop it worked great. Thanks for the help.
