How do I mix mods? because it seems that you can only use one at the time

that is the way mods work, to combine them you need to add the files from both, and have to edit the def, material and/or script files. Bigger the mod more of a mess to combine.

trentphrozo is a example of the first mess I had to untangle to put 2 mods together. thing to check is are there files with the same name in both mods, if so then you have to do some editing if not then they should work together.

pretty much the same for any game, you'll have files that are in both mods. nothing can run them both at the same time, its a conflict. RBdoom3bfg is a modified Doom 3 bfg source which Bfg shares a lot of code with doom 3.

say weapon_shotgun.def for instance is in both mods with different settings, there can only be one

thats the thing, why does the game need a file that manages both the model and the sound, in goldsrc and source you have to replace the model and sound file itself rather than changing the code for the weapon

you can replace the model and the sound, the def file controls how the weapon works and where all the stuff is for it. But we are talking about combining mods, and said mods having files of the same name. for instance this mod doesn't touch the stock def, just has the model and texture. so no editing required.

i just tried that and it generates a weird bug were the the hud and the enviroment GUIs (the screens that are part of the map mesh) start having some black bars for a sec and then stop, otherwise it seems to work fine

The model works but I still get the normal Doom 3 sound effect. How do I get the alpha shotgun audio as well?
