Model View Question (Redux)

Unread post by WildcatTM »

Greetings,

I'm trying to get some transparent goodness for Skoll. For the life of me, I can't figure out where to go to disable his particle effect so I can get a simple Skoll. His natural effect keeps getting in the way of each .GIF I make.

I'm not sure about *completely* removing his lightning, but you can take some of the glow off by going to
>View
>Show model control
Then in the little box that pops up, unclick Particles

I assume Veph's tip managed to turn off all the lightning, but if not.... I forget whether Skoll's model is in a separate folder to the regular Northrend wolves. If it's in the same folder then you should be able to easily view that skin on the normal model, which has no lightning effects but is otherwise the same.

If it's in a different folder then you can copy the skin across and view it, but it requires a lot more effort and you may not want to go that far, but I have instructions for doing that kind of thing at the bottom of the first post on this thread: http://forums.wow-petopia.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13887

Thanks, Wain. I was actually looking at that the other day. I did run into another problem that came out of nowhere.

When I go to export a .GIF, I receive the following error message:

"Impossible to make a gif with more frames then the model animation." This occurs with all exports now, even the ones I previously made. Does anyone have a work around to this?

Edit:

Annnd it just randomly fixed itself. Boy.
