Ok, Im lost.
I have created some nice tanks and such and they look great in scorched 3d. However the complaints that Im getting is that they do not move when aiming. I havnt done anything different. Is there a piece of code or anything that would enable or disable this that I have missed?

ANY help is greatly needed and welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Nufather

OK, here is an example of what I have. i downloaded "tux" which is a penguin tank off the net. When aiming the entire model turns when aiming. I downloaded a couple of Gundam tanks and they do not turn at all just the aiming guide.

How do I get the entire tank to move?
I hope that I explained it clearly :)
Thx

its all in the mesh names. anything starting with 'turret' will rotate laterally around 'turretpivot'. if you want the whole tank to rotate like the pinguine, you need to name each piece of the model 'turretwhatever'.

Thank you both for your help. I got everything modified with the tanks and they are looking great

I was also reading a couple of threads on the forum and seen one that had code to make the tanks smaller in the game. Is there any to make the tanks bigger?


THX again
