Hey, first time shader here.

Anyway, I am making a clan release skin for QQJJz, based off of VampD's model. I have a shader set up for the eyes, but I can't get it to work. Here is what I have:

shaders/qqjjz.shader:
Code: 
models/player/qqjjz/mouth_eyes
{
	{
		map models/players/qqjjz/mouth_eyes_g.tga
	}
	{
		map models/players/qqjjz/mouth_eyes.tga
		blendfunc blend
		rgbGen wave triangle 1 2 1 1
	}
}


Whats wrong is that the mouth_eyes_g is not replacing the eyes in mouth_eyes.

And my TGAs are based off of the tuorials at planetquake located here, mabey I have to make the part of the mouth_eyes that has the eyes to be over written a certain color?.

Plug that thing into ShaderEd2, I'll bet it'll scream at you with errors.

Use ShaderEd2, it's much easier.

Your right, heh. I forgot about that program. >_<

Here is what I got:
Quote:
<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">
* Stage 1 has a file-not-found: "models/players/qqjjz/mouth_eyes_g"
* Stage 2 is not 32bit and has no alpha-gen, but tried to alpha-blendSrcBlend = GL_SRC_ALPHA, DstBlend = GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA
* Stage 2 has a file-not-found: "models/players/qqjjz/mouth_eyes"
* Shader does not have a lightmap stage, but you forgot to check the 'nolightmap' flag</font>


I'm just going to fiddle with stuff untill it works, if anyone can tell me how to do it, that would make it much easier.

[EDIT], it appears that it is not accepting my TGA, mabey photoshop 5 is incompatible. Can someone can recommend a good TGA editor that I can make alpha channels on?
