    I am trying to get a blender dummy model and texture into the game to learn the process. I set up a mod to replace the fighter model and texture.

    I was able to export the model into the papa format using the blender papa exporter without any error. So I assume that means the bone structure is set up correctly.

    However when I build the unit in game all I see is the old model with a new texture. Any ideas on why? Is there is issue with my model?

    edit: Deleted bad attachment.

    PA seems to not like changing the models of Uber's units. I would suggest renaming the fighter. Remember to also change it in
    • unitlist.json
    • ui\main\shared\js\build.js
    • ui\main\game\live_game\img\build_bar\units
    Also the attached file is broken, so I can't check the model. If it worked with the .papa exporter, then the model is probably set up correctly (the fighter is very simple).

    I will give that a try when I get home from work. If that doesn't work, I will fix the attachment.
