Oh sorry I missed your last sentence; nope, currently HUD weapon models aren't supported yet. :/

If have to put a sprite into the WAD, I can't use more then 29 frames in model?

What about using different sprite names for the same actor?

Decorate:

See:
POS1 ABCDEF 2 A_Chase
POS2 ABCDEF 2 A_Chase // POS 2 are more frames of the same sprite for the walking animation
Loop

Modeldef:

Frameindex POS1 A 0 10
(...)
Frameindex POS2 A 0 120 // etc.

Exellent. And can I use model for player?

I've created a pwad with a bunch of dummy sprites for the purpose of having models with plenty of animation frames.

They range from NULA to NULZ. That's a total of 676 frames of animation, if you do the math.

I've been using this for awhile. Anyway, hopefully this will be helpful...

Can't wait for proper model support though. =)

Is there a program that can rename files in doom pattern? for example

xxxa0

mogor - I used Photoshop's batch renaming tools to create the above ZIP file.

I can't remember the exact procedure I went through but I can tell you this - it was a pain in the ass. =/

Just use my file if you want tons of dummy sprites to use for your models. ;P

Ok, I'll use it )
Another question - is there vertex or poligon limit in md3?

No, the MD3 format doesn't have any vertex or polygon limit.
