All darkmod models are now located in the "'''models/darkmod/'''" folder. This is to keep our models separate from the regular D3 assets. Note that many folders have sub-folders to organize things further.  When there is a grey area, try looking at what is already in the folders to decide where your model should go.


'''models/chars, models/md5, models/props''' and '''models/weapons''', have not been moved, because it would cause too much havoc in the code (models/chars will eventually be deleted--the others will unfortunately have to remain, even though it creates some confusion).
Textures for specific models (other than map_specific) should go in '''models/darkmod/props/textures'''

All darkmod models are now located in the "models/darkmod/" folder. This is to keep our models separate from the regular D3 assets. Note that many folders have sub-folders to organize things further. When there is a grey area, try looking at what is already in the folders to decide where your model should go.

Textures for specific models (other than map_specific) should go in models/darkmod/props/textures
