The Wastes

The Wastes

Is there some .vvm Model Viewer?
I just wanted to inspect the player models closely, like i do with all Half-Life mods in Half-Life Model Viewer, especially since i can't have a good look on the player characters with those weathered photoes in the menu, but i only found model.vvm files in that pak0.pk3 file (whichi've managed to unpack using 7Zip)and i have no idea howto open them (googling didn't help at all). Is there some Model Viever app for those?

The Wastes runs on a modified version of the Quake engine, not GoldSource.

As for the model format, it is completely custom to The Wastes and I recall there being an SDK on their website for it, but I can no longer find it.

Okay, thanks.
And as for

- i know. But the original The Wastes mod for up to v1.4 RC1, i believe, was a Half-Life 1 modification, and ran on GoldSrc engine, so i still kinda think about it as of a Half-Life 1 mod, no matter that the Steam's v1.5 got a new engine from Quake. And it still feels much like a HL1 mod - even the player character's stance in the third person view mode and some elements of the main menu and the options menu are the same. They even still have the Spray painting feature!

Hi, I know this is a bit late, but we actually ship with our code/SDK tools in the game. Just look at your SDK folder inside your "The Wastes" folder at steamapps/common. If you go into "Model Tools" you can view the code and mess around with our model format! As for a viewer, you can actually view models in the game, but I can not remember the command for the life of me.

Oh, cool. Thank you. Let me know if you'll remember that )

OK apparently the easiest method is to just grab a copy of FTE Client: http://fte.triptohell.info/downloads
Launch FTE, hit shift + esc to open the console, and type modelviewer path/to/file/here.vvm

You can view models in TW, but the game code needs to be recompiled in developer mode. Like I said, we do ship the code, so you can look into that if you really want to!
