MD2 model problem

[Dexiaz]

Hi everyone. I tried to add my own md2 model into wad, but it doesn't appear and GZDoombuilder shows only "?" instead of model.

I've googled tutorials about md2/md3 models, but failed. There are only 3d model creating tutorials (Youtube, for example) but I already did a model (really simple silver flat), but I don't know how to code this.

In ZDoomwiki (http://zdoom.org/wiki/MODELDEF#For_models_with_unnamed_frames) I see only info about flags and other things, it doesn't help me.

Here is model: https://yadi.sk/d/_ZYIyVX-nVDGH

Modeldef:

Model D2Door
{ 
   Model 0 "D2Door.md2" 
   Skin 0 "SILVER1.png"
   
frameindex MODL A 0 0
} 

Decorate:

ACTOR D2Door 30250
{
    Radius 32
    Height 16
    Mass 10000
    +FLOAT
    +NOGRAVITY
    +SOLID
    States
    {
    Spawn:
	MODL A -1
	Loop
    }
}

Map format: UDMF (Doom 2)

I'm really bad at 3d model-making, yes. I appreciate any help, even for detailed tutorial about ZDoom 3d modeling.

You need to define the file path of where the model is in the PK3. Also, I recommend you use MD3s instead, as MD2s have wibbly wobbly vertices.

Model D2Door
{ 
   Path "models" // <- You need to add this property and set it to a valid path to
                 // your model inside of PK3/Directory resource.
   Model 0 "D2Door.md2" 
   Skin 0 "SILVER1.png"
   
   frameindex MODL A 0 0
}

Also your model's polys are not centered on the model's origin and it's probably incorrectly rotated and scaled.

I can use only pk3 files? No wads?

[MaxED]

Yes. GZDoom doesn't load models from wads.

How to center to model origin? Other things are normal, Door normaly rotated and scaled, it's the idea of this door.
