Model not loading in game

[TheRedBaron 0]

I make a simple coke machine addon but Its not showing up in the game. It is giving me no error messages and my other custom addons work. I figure its a problem with my config but I cant find it. the folder of the addon before pboing was coke and the p3d is coke.p3d:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">class CfgPatches

{

class Crate

{

units[] = {Crate};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.0;

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All {};

class Static: All {};

class Building: Static {};

class NonStrategic: Building {};

class TargetTraining: NonStrategic {};

class TargetGrenade: TargetTraining {};

class Crate: TargetGrenade

{

model="\coke\coke";

armor=20000;

scope=2;

displayName="cstm_coke";

}

}

Two questions

Is the word "cstm_coke" coming up in the objects list in editor?

And

Have you set the land contact points?

My static object addons work without "land contact points" So I'm guessing you put the addon below the center line ? if so move it so the bottom of the coke machine just above the center line  

Also

Quote[/b] ]class CfgPatches

{

class Crate

{

units[] = {Crate};

weapons[] = {};

requiredVersion = 1.0;

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All {};

class Static: All {};

class Building: Static {};

class NonStrategic: Building {};

class TargetTraining: NonStrategic {};

class TargetGrenade: TargetTraining {};

class Crate: TargetGrenade

{

vehicleClass="TheRedBaron - Objects";

model="\coke\coke";

armor=20000;

scope=2;

displayName="cstm_coke";

};

}

Notice the "vehicleClass="TheRedBaron - Objects" That will put you addon in your very own folder (like Cars, Air, Objects etc) Should make it easer to find.(It will be under Empty/TheRedBaron - Objects/cstm_coke

Yes they might but I would still go with a landcontact lod.

Is there another 'crate' anywhere in your addons ?

[TheRedBaron 0]

My addon is above the center line and I have made a crate from a tutorial and it does show up in my object list, but this one is not showing up at all for some reason. I tried searching through other classes but i couldnt find it. I checked the model in 02 and compared it to the crate that works but I can not find the problem.

[TheRedBaron 0]

Yes! finally figured it out. I had just copy pasted the config from my crate addon and did not change all of the "crates" to "coke". Though now I have another problem, me being unexperienced with o2 overestimated the size.

not a problem I cant fix though

thanks a bunch for all of you help

You can use Shift+Ctrl to size quicker... unless you know that allready
