My Animated 3D Weapon Model is Messed Up
It appears that the draw order is wrong. The cylinder is supposed to be in the center!! How do I fix this??

It looks like your model's normals face the wrong way. Invert/flip them.

I tried flipping them a few times but it didn't do anything!

Sorry for the double post but I have the same problem again. This time it is an .OBJ of what is supposed to be a flower. Also I found that the ROTATING keyword doesn't work on weapon models.

Re: My Animated 3D Weapon Model is Messed Up
One more post about how weapon models are messed up. The weird thing is that they are not transparent when spawned into the map as normal actors.

Yep, I've got exactly the same problem. Model spawned in map is ok, when used as a hud model, it is messed up.

Re: My Animated 3D Weapon Model is Messed Up
Hello, little update. I think I've found a halfway solution for this problem...
I noticed that my last weapon, that I created the same way as the others (the others work well without the bug of this thred) has the bug mentioned here. So, I grabbed it by the balls and spent some time playing with it.
- I don't think this is a bug of the model. After all, the model works 100% correct when placed on ground. The bug only appears when the model is used as a HUD weapon.
- so I started playing with model offsets. Because, the model placed on the ground is much farther from camera than the HUD weapon, maybe the bug is related to actual distance between the viewport (camera, etc.) and the model itself. So I checked my working model's offsets and found out that most of the models have Z offset like -10, while the new weapon has Z offset -3. So, I changed it to -4 ... and the problem is GONE!
So, if you want to solve this, try playing with models offsets in MODELDEF. I think this 'bug' is related to the renderer or camera. Not sure if I should report it.

Re: My Animated 3D Weapon Model is Messed Up
This is quite a bump...
I figured it out by simply playing with the offset in MODELDEF...
