Use pakscape.exe ( http://www.quake-1.com/files/developer/pakscape-011.zip ) and open pak0.pak

Or download fimg 2.0 ( http://www.inside3d.com/frikbot/fimg/ ) and it comes with palette.lmp too I believe.

actually the problem was he didn't set up quark's paths to point to Quake

*Irritated* In QuArK i cant find wich box that i should put the path to the palette file in.

You don't do that
you simply put the path to the game in the Game Configuration
it drags out and uses the appropriate files in the pak itself

Right, so i got it into QuArK, seems like the texture fucked up.

Besides the skin map problem, I suggest you to reduce a bit the number of polys, specially in the weapon barrels. Remember, Quake is not optimized for high polycount models, so less is usually better.

Rite so the barrel is now square, how can i fix my texture problem?

You can load the model in QuArK and adjust the skin verts on it (warning: it's a PITA).

The texture wasn't assigned in Blender. Not doing so will give you the checker pattern. Assign a texture to the model first before exporting, you can do this in Edit Mode by selecting all polygons, then selecting the texture you want to use in the UV/Image Editor. You can select your mesh and export from there.

Thats exactly what i did, i think. Selected a face in blender, unwraped it in uv mapping interface, mapped it and then exported it.

No help yet?...

Hey, leileilol, I've finally reInstalled blender on Windows7 and might take some time to learn the mechanics. The only thing I learned so far was how to install it. Roughly, without creating a whole new tutorial, can i take saved separate model files to create an animated .md3 export? Or is blender just the tool used to create the individual .md3 files and another tool is used to compile them into 1 .md3 model? I dont want to make an animation in blender if it's not the way to go for use in Quake. Though, I do like what i have seen from some youTube vids of what blender can do. Either way, it's time to learn modeling, instead of weed-whacking code.

I'm guessing they must have recently included admin approval for registration.

I'm currently waiting for my approval to attempt MDL support in Blender!

Thanks for the guide!
