dr death jm 117 Posted December 2, 2015 basically there's a lot of lacking info , or its spread out to a confusing point (for newbs like me). I'm looking for info about everything a to z .. I know its a lot to ask for. my biggest problem is adding bones/skeletons or what ever for moving parts. it seems that if model didn't come with them I'm having problems adding them. I tried to use arma3 sample for lite heli , (add its automation to something eles) , I see it doesn't work that way or I'm missing so info how to. Ive watched all the vids I could find but they mostly deal with animation on solder's any how.. any extra help or links to would be awesome. and if this has been asked for before please just point me to were and this post can be locked. thanks ...

x3kj 1247 Posted December 4, 2015 Look here for general idea how model structure is set up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqFss3fzt5w&list=PLDCB3D4F3A7F7EF10 More up to date information on model structure can be found in the wiki here If you want to learn how to model ignore Objectbuilder/O2. It's a very outdated program, frustrating to use and unnecessarily complicated. If you model in max you only need OB to set up your models for ingame use. Use either max (tons of tutorials on youtube) or blender + Alwarren's toolbox that allow to bypass OB almost completely (bar some exceptions iirc). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr death jm 117 Posted December 5, 2015 thanks x3kj, another really good start .. I have 3ds max .. but lack info on arma3 files into 3ds and then back. with the info above ill be busy for a bit. since arma3 update I think my folder structure is messed up. best I can explain is my e: drive (piggy back driver) has arma3 exe (it were I installed it) but now after up date it also includes arma3 samples and what not .. my p: drive has all of the things I need (I'm sure) . also included is armarig and armatoolbox... ill be watching some model vids for now till I get it right. I know modling isn't going to be easy but I wanna give to the community like the guys did in the ofp error and flood a3 with add-ons of every kind ... "If I can Learn to make um"..
