AFM Landing Gear issue

Recommended Posts

All,

 

Friend of mine is tearing his hair out over an issue with a heli he is working on.

 

When the heli spawns in Eden, it spawns with the landing gear up and thus causes damage to the heli.

 

However, in all other scenarios it spawns with the gear down. 2d editor, bulldozer and with AFM turned off.. any ideas would be welcomed!

Is the gear up or actually below the ground. Is this a Chinook? If so, when 3CB looked at adding AFM to it some time ago when the Huron AFM wasn't readily available, we found that with AFM switch on, the wheels would actually be fully below the ground when placed and it would rest on its belly. In normal flight mode, it would sit on the wheels. We haven't yet revisted this.

the heli and all aircraft have to be modelled with their gear down, animations fold it up. Not the other way round. Plus the definition of contact points and others (SlideOn and DriveOn components in PhysX LOD, physx wheels if available) have to be proper.
