Features won't show up in SME

Post by oksnoop2 »

I was attempting to add my own features using SME. It shows up in the feature list but does not show model.

http://code.google.com/p/conflictterra/ ... n/features This is the feature.

http://saddam.ath.cx:8085/sme/wiki/Tuto ... ngFeatures
This is the tutorial I followed.

Can someone please try to add these and tell me what's wrong?

Thanks for your time.

Missing secondary texture is my guess.

Neither of them *require* a second texture, at least not to run fine in game. :?

I was going to say that i think none of the CT units make use of that second texture option in upspring and they work fine. So i'm doubting it's the second texture or lack there of that is the culprit. Any other suggestions?

You need to assign a hitsphere and a height to them in upspring. Do that and they'll start showing up.

Best talk to me, as I textured every unit you see in CT.

Just checked and the feature has both a hitsphere and height.

Has anyone like downloaded the stuff and seen if this will appear for them?

Alright, so for no good reason the feature decided to start showing up. Here's the only things done differently that I can think of.

I imported a saved SM2 map.
The map was 8x8 instead of 24x24 which is what I was originally testing with.

Any ideas? I hadn't tampered with the feature info inside the SME folders at all.
