Another track problem.

Postby Wouter1998 » Tue Nov 19, 2013 3:18 pm

So i decided to add some walls to my map, following this tutorial. I'm using INST objects here, so i've got a wall named PH1_ and PB1_. Also, there's PH2_ and PB2_ on the other side for a second wall.

Thing is, when i get to them ingame, they dissapear, and you also can't crash into them. What should i do?

Are those walls placed over two different grounds or roads?

btw no need to make PBn_ objects since MM2ct will generate them automatically

There's a small road under the walls and the walls are connected to it.

open the city with mm2ct, go to inst and check if it's assigned to the road

Apparently it's connected to BLOCK_4... but every single block is called BLOCK_4. What now?

but to which block 4? (each has it's own ID number) then find the road on psdl objects list(if you click on it then you will see which one it is) and edit it on the inst list

Any PKG object managed by the INST file must be connected to the PSDL terrain block present under it. In this case you had the connecting to a PSDL terrain block, but it there wasn't present under the object, doesn't matter how much near it. Must always be so on tracks made all of PKG objects managed by the INST file to have them to work properly.
Doesn't inst need the LODs?
The PKG objects managed by the INST file can well don't have LODs, but it's suggested have them, anyway. They're needed only to have the objects visible in farer distances.
