[Zmod] Dummies Help

how do i make dummy coz i have this cool idea for my engine where the fans spin round and a few others but i need dummys how would i make them?

topic moved to help area, youre not a guest here, youre a memeber so watch out where do you post stuff allright?

PS: Just copy the part, and right click on it, convert to dummy and thats it

arrh do i do it to both fans?

i guess

do i just leave em as dummy or do i do the same as what u do with cars make the dummy then put the item into the dummies menu thingy?

exactly, you must put it in the hierarchy

when i move the pivot its impossible to select my item agen

yep

i just tested it ingame and my whole computer froze but if i cant select the item how am i spost to make it a dummy? it wont highlight it or anything

right click, convert to dummy

did i make a general help topic just so it is there?

drifter but what about the object? ive got that pivot as well

all the movableparts like doors ,bonnet,boot,bumpers must have the privots alligned with the axe of the dummy they are in.so u reset the pivot of the object to the dummy doing the command"Reset to parent" with the option "Keep Object" enabled and option "offline" selected (from the local axes menu)so u reset only the privot,if u want to reset the object and his privot both at the same it u have to disable the "keep object"option in the local axes menu

also do i call the dummy like fan_rf or fan_r or fan_r_dummy if not what should i call em

you can call it w/e you want, the obj must be in the dummy, like bump_front_dummy is the dummy so it should be -bump_front_dummy thats hows it soposed to look in the hierarchy
bump_front_ok

if its right will it move automaticaly?

you will have to set the pivot somehow :S

keep trying but the game keeps crashing i set the pivot as well

idk then

try the car without the txd or with a txd from a car default of sa and tell me if continue crashing if yes..the bug is in dff if it works the txd have some uncompressed texture
try it

i already tyed that i think its a bug in the dummys

there is the ped_frontseat,the petrocap,ped_arm and the engine dummy?

yep

i don't know the problem without see the car in zmod let's wait someone better with it

i dnt no whats up with it so im not playing with it

just post a pic of the model or upload it without textures so someone could fix if he wants :S

narr im gettin new ideas lol i need to learn to model i want a new exhaust and engine a big boombox
