Um well...

Postby Wing Nut » Sat Jul 30, 2005 7:46 pm

You figure this one out!

I was playing around with some free 3ds Max models and made this plane for FS from one...  Near as I can figure, the wingspan must be around 10 or 15 miles!

Have you checked the unit of measures before exporting? Doh.. never mind, stupid question. ;D ;D ;D

But anyways, have you checked to see if there were any objects in the source model that have the exact same name? ie: Aileron_01, Aileron_02, Aileron_02

Or, have you checked to see that all the objects have at least a name? Are you sure there are no groups WITHIN groups?

My Ferrari had the same problem until I answered these question. It's amazing to see that small things can cause big problems. :P

O.K., we've got to make a movie out of this jumbo..how about we title it "Attack of the Killer Spitfires", no....."Spitfire From the Planet Xenon"...no,.... "Spitfires ate my Mother-in- Law". Or we could kidnap the entire population of Rhode Island and fly them to a remote location.... ;)
