Hey everyone,

 

I'm having some trouble with Trauma pack's mirror lights. I *THINK* I've mapped them correctly, and in OpenIV they show as being on my car. But in game the mirror models themselves are missing yet the mapped lights I have for them flash. 

Does anyone know why this is?  Or could someone please PM me these lights mapped?

Thanks, 
Visible25

Do you have the mirror modules attached to the doors or contained within the hierarchy of the vehicle?

Yea I do, and they still show up in OpenIV -just not in-game.

I think it might have to do with how they were exported from the .obj file though.

Then again, maybe not. I don't know haha

EDIT: I have them attached to the car doors

hate to do this, but does anyone have any idea what's causing this?

it sounds like you dont have them assigned to a proper material or a defualt material

as far as i know when you have something set to defualt material it's invisible (colisions)

thats what may be causing your problem.

if you would be so kind to post a screen shot of your model in zmodeler it'll provide me with more information on your problem

Okay perfect! Give me about 25-30 minutes and I'll pm it to you.

You said you have them attacked, or just on the doors. If in zmod, you put them in a door in the hierarchy I don't believe it will work. If it really is in the door section of the hierarchy, then you should try naming doing it like this (with the lightbar)

it'll be a ways down, where he connects the ELS things to the car model.

I believe I've done all that.

Well...I just testing on my CVPI in zmod, but this just looks like a model. : not mapped or anything lol. I thought these were pre-mapped. Any pictures, or want to explain what you have done/trying to do with it?

I'm trying to get them to work/show up. I know they have been mapped correctly because when I try it in game, the lights flash (on the mirrors) BUT the physical module of said CVPI lights do not show up. But in OpenIV they show up in the preview?

At this point, I'm just looking for anyone that has these mapped!

You need to import it as the model, make copies of the LED's or make an LED and thenput it on the mirror.

Then drop the mirror lights into the right doors in the hierarchy and attach LED's to proper extra

I got it to work! Thanks for everyone's help, inculding Stevo!!
