Hello everybody,

i wanted to ask if somebody could help me with adding a lightbar to a CVPI or a Tahoe.

any help is welcome.

it is just for personal use.

I would really appreciate it!

Import the textures that come with the Light bar files BEFORE you import the model into Zmodeler.

okay and how do i import the textures?

only thing i know is how to make things with polygon, move stuff, scale and rotate, just the really basics.

Thanks for your reply!

When in Zmodeler press "E", then a screen should come up, you import textures there.

okay, just import them or do any options?

Once you import the textures, save them, then import the model.

i don't get how to import the textures.

can you explain me a little bit better?

Thanks for replying!!!

Just make sure all the textures that the lightbar needs (all the images inside the wtd file) are in the same folder as the .wft file that you important into zmodeler and it should show correctly. Do the exact same with the vehicle and its textures but you also need to add the vehshare texture files (can be found on the zmodeler website or extracted from the vehshare.wtd file).

Essentially you want to have a 'work folder' and inside it are all the .wft files that you're going to import into your zmodeler scene, in addition to all their textures as png files.

okay i will try.

thank you for your help and fast reply!

Okay, so what i did is:

I loaded in the Whelen liberty of PFCbarefood, and then pressed 'E' made a new and pished on this: http://prntscr.com/eg7wt

Then i added all the pictures that where given with me in the download, Like Showen Here: http://prntscr.com/eg817

Added each picture to its own material, and then i am good?

Load in the car and put the lightbar at the right postition, add the Lightbar Misc B between the car chassis?

then Export??

Almost.

You need to rename the WhelenLiberty.wft to something like misc_b or extra_1 and then move it into the hierarchy of the model under "chassis"

Okay Thanks you :D i will try it then.

Thanks for all your help!

Edit: How do i export it?

when i click on File, then export but .WFT isn't between them :S

Click the Export button (red arrow)

Pick a name for the model, it should be the same as the one you are replacing and save it, for example if I was replacing the coquette I would put:

Coquette.wft

Yeah i know but i haven

You'll need to update your zModeler then. You are using an incredibly outdated version

hahaha okay :P, i just installed the first one i saw :P.

which version is recommended?

-Snippro12

I'm currently using build Version 2.2.6 (Build 992)

Okay, Really thanks for your help!

i will export it and try it ingame.

if i have any problems i will post here again.
