@death7991 Okay, Just for reference, The textures are the what links up to the gun? So i would take the sns pistol textures and change them to the textures that best fits the gun model and then later on it'll all just piece together, That's how im seeing it.

@flying_bulletzzz aight, i did that, Now what do i do with the obj file.

For anyone who needs a reference of what i get in the output system, and what appears on the GUI

X - Failed to locate texture "ENV_SMOOTH_CONCRETE2.dds".
X - Texture "env_smooth_concrete2.dds" was not found in "[search list]". file:TextureService.cpp line:581
X - Failed to locate texture "env.dds".
X - Texture "env.dds" was not found in "[search list]". file:TexturesService.cpp line:581
X - No shader configuration avail for "normal_spec_alpha".

All i see on the GUI is just x/y lines but no object of the model.

I made a folder with the gta 5 weapons that im going to replace. It is the sns pistol.
Here are the game files i took to replace the models and textures of the gun.

-Magazine
w_pi_sns_pistol_mag1.ydr
w_pi_sns_pistol_mag1.ydr

-Main folder
w_pi_sns_pistol.ydr
w_pi_sns_pistol.ytd
w_pi_sns_pistol_hi.ydr

So here's the problem. When i opened Zmodeler3, i went to import the model files. First i wanted to replace the gun model
and second i wanted to replace the clip and then work on the textures. So i loaded the gun first and it popped up with green boxes and i didnt see a sight of the weapon. Did i do something wrong, Cause im sure if on openiv, it shows the gun model, it would do the same thing awell since the software can load gta models.

@death7991 i have a .mdl file, is there any way i can convert it to a .obj. I tried looking online and coudlnt get anywhere.

zmodeler3 it is, thank you

I need some links and information on how to develop add on weapons, ATM i plan on just porting guns from different games, But i figured i am gonna need some software on turning a certain model file to a ymt, ydr, ytd, ect?
