Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
Thank you for that information, I have one question though, the viewer?

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
Ok found the viewer file. Can you tell me what a bounding box is, and how do I adjust it. In the viewer mine are not placed correctly. Instead of being even and encompassing the ship, they are centered but facing up and down.
I have included an image.

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
Yuck, use the hex or square instead and turn off the centering lines. You'll get a much better idea of scaling and centering problems that way.

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
I don't know how to turn on the hex thing. I am getting the firing arcs down though. (Thank you.)
About that bounding box.... what the hell is it, and do you know how I can adjust it? Could it be for the shields???

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
I have discovered that with some models the X Y and Z are different.
For the ones I am using, the Z = forward and back. The X = left and right, and Y = Up and down.

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
Hit "H" twice to get the hex.
The bounding box is based on the model's dimensions and spatial coordinates. Haven't a clue if the game actually uses it.
The first two ships in your pic, did you rotate them in your modeling program or in the XFileClasses file?

Re: Trying To Add Ship Set, Keeps Crashing the Gam
The hex is just to help show scale. It's size is constant so I use it to compare a new model to the same class of stock in order to get my new one to be of a similar size.
