Have u added the following files for it : .vcl file in Actors Folder, vehicle model in Models Folder and the appropiate .rsb file(s) in the Textures Folder ?

Also, are u sure the .vcl file is set up correctly (eg trying ot use a Helicopter type if its actualy a crashed version and Tagged up as a Wheeled vehicle will crash the system)

I know these are "Teaching-U-2-Suck-Eggs" type questions but lets eliminate the obvious stuff first :thumbsup:

Is this a model you made? Even if it doesn't "do" anything, it has to have all the right tags for the particular vehicle type.

I didnt make this, in fact I dont even know how it got in my Island Thunder folder, I thought it came with it but I guess not. maybe some mod I used in the past left it there.

if its actualy a crashed version and Tagged up as a Wheeled vehicle will crash the system)... I have it tagged as a helo, but as far as what its properties are in .max, I dont know..I didnt make this.

where you able to get it to work in-game?

It came with IT, just checked my Mp2 folders and the files are identical to the ones found in there.

Doing some diggin inside the .pob file reveals a few interesting things though, vehicle tagging that I've never seen before in any GR vehicle.

Things like:

<n><cockpit>

<n><floorboard>

<n><hipbody>

<n><leftpilot>

<n><leftrocketsled> :blink:

and a load of others.

Can't find a single grouptag that I recognice as being used in working vehicles.

Looks to me like its a remnant of something they worked on, just like the helo parts found among the original GR files.

Somehow doubt we'll ever get this file to work inside GR
