extra_1 staying on

[Natho's Designs 91]

hello all. Thanks for coming to help!

I am having an issue with a model. in game, extra_1 is staying on, even when i tried cycling the lights, using gta_parts.xml in zmodeler, recompounding, checked the els config, checked the name over and over. Also in the main lspd station when i go to the garage, and go to toggle the extra_1 off. the extra doesnt even show up on the list, only extras 2-11. almost as zmodeler doesnt recognize the light as an object, and also theres no zmodeler error messages regaurding extra 1   Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers,

Nathan

Check thru your whole hierarchy and make sure you don't have anything else named extra_1 in there. That means open everything one by one and check.

Uncompound extra_1 and delete the dummy. make a new dummy and scale it down 50% and name it extra_1. Next go to your lights and reset the local axes to object. Now click on copy olocal axis from one node to another and click on your light and drag it to the dummy,then that will reset the the to the correct axis. now delete your LODs and copy from the one you just did then compound them and that should fix it.
