Deadfast 43 Posted September 28, 2008 Hello all. For the first time I'm creating an object for ArmA (an ATM machine). I got everything set up correctly and the model works just as intended. Well, except for the collisions. So far I understand that it's LOD called Geometry that works as a collision mesh. Also I know that the Geometry object has to be triangulated and edges sharpened. Unfortunately no matter what I do I just can't get the thing to work. The best I got so far is having bullets impact on the geometry (by using Component Convex Hull function). Now for the question about LandContact. Is there a way I can make the object's position relative to the Y axis instead of the ground? i.e. the object will always aim straight upwards instead of tilting according to the terrain? Thanks, Deadfast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's true for the ShadowVolume lod, not for the Geometry lod. See here for its criteria: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/LOD#Geometry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 28 Posted September 28, 2008 Yes dengibtsschon is right, GEO LOD can be 4 point faces, so long as its closed. I suspect your problem is you haven't added mass to it and/or you haven't selected; STRUCTURE -> TOPOLOGY -> FIND COMPONENTS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadfast 43 Posted September 28, 2008 Ah, thanks guys, I'll get right back at you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[aps]gnat 28 Posted September 28, 2008 On the "stands upright" ... not sure, but if you make it the same class as a house ... likely fix the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadfast 43 Posted September 28, 2008 Thanks again! Forgot to add the mass... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted September 28, 2008 Don't forget the components! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadfast 43 Posted September 28, 2008 Don't worry, got it 100% working But about that house class - could you elaborate a bit? If there's something I suck with more than O2 then it's configs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
