Problems editing M4 Aimpoint sample model

[sv5000 127]

Hi gurus.

I did a search but found not answers.

I am playing around with the bis m4 aimpoint model and I am having issues with changes that I make not showing up in the pilot view.

I am used to simply pasting in any changes I make into the pilot lod view and its all good. But due to the sxc aimpoint pilot model, these old tricks arnt working. If i copy in the

aimpoint model from the pilot lod it doesn't work as the bracket is solid filled and you cant see thru it anymore.

Any advice?

It's (likely) an alpha sorting problem. You need to sort out the faces with alpha textures in the aimpoint sight.

A picture would help.

ok, regardless of what changes I make, this is what I see in my viewpilot lod

If i attempt to add any of the model changes to it, it simply does not show up in this view, any ideas?

Oh, so the bracket you're talking about is the selection marquis? That's weird. I don't think I've seen this behaviour before.

sv5000 -

you can easy fix it - by exporting the whole model , select export > Universal Bistudio TXT and save it as .txt file

Then easy import it , import > Universal Bistudio TXT , select that .txt file that you saved before and done (everything should be ok) :)

Except the named properties (if there are any). They won't be kept.

ok, will give it a shot RH. and thanks for the heads up Max.

Gave it a shot and appears to have fixed the issue, not sure on the named properties bit, but that will become evident later on down the path i expect ;)

I think typically, weapons have the named property autocenter 0 in all LODs and lodnoshadow 1 in the non shadow lods.
