hi, i have a problem where i cant seem to get unit models made from scratch to show up in generals. I have successfully added the (basic) orca from renegade, which shows up fine, but trying to add my own model made from scratch doesnt seem to work. I can build it, but it doesnt show ingame (it is invisible) and causes graphical glitches on other nearby objects (causeing them to go invisible too). I dont understand why, especially since my first test model has the same effect and that worked in bfme. I have also successfully added a building model.

sorry, fixed now, wasnt coding fault, it was textures i think, i exported the textures using imageready instead of photoshop at 32bit and it seems to work now. Noticed textures wernt showing up in FinalBIG. Strange...

anyway, here is a pic incase anyone is interested:

Thats cool, throw in some particles at the target area and it would look better.

try this

delete your old w3d model then export a new one then put it on your w3d folder
