1. I finally have an idea why my formation previews look wrong.
My question is; how do you unwrap a model so it fits into a square? (that square :razz: )

Or should I say lots of triangles. Can people who have done a formation preview please give me some tips!

That was the original thread on the problem. I'm just wondering if anyone has since got a treaded artilery with a deploy/undeploy animation to work correctly.
Please note that the 'theory' tends not to work in pratice, so pratical examples are prefered.
The Artilery piece in question is a M110 if that helps. While it is easy to get the animations working correctly, the artilery has trouble changing targets when it's in a deployed state if it has to undeploy first.
Also the artilery will often fail to fire on a target if it has first had to travel a distance.

Can someone please tell me whats wrong with this code, or make adjustments so it'll work. The idea is to tint any vehicle hit by the weapon green. If someone can test this that would be extra nice!

Thanks

I hastily browsed your code, dont have the time to invest a serious reply but what I did notice was your colors are fubar.

<Color R="0" G="2" B="0" />

The max for these values is 1 If you put a 2 in there you screw it all up. Use 0 for none ,0.5 for half ,1 for full, and never more than 1.
