K I have fixed the normal map but it seemed to add a lot of Poly's. I have finished the the shadow mesh and the collusion mesh. All that is left at this moment is help with the heir.him file for the weapons.


Edit*

I fixed the high poly problem and the flipped normals so everything is ok

Thanks blazing

question how do I give my Pt model a wake both front and back in il2 like below.



my model is the one on the right

[Verhängnis]

There are hooks, I don't know the names, but check the hook differences between both models and you can then just add them to yours.

[asheshouse]

Open Body.msh in a text editor and look for something like this
between the [LOD] and [Materials] sections.
If you have no hook entries try pasting these in.

Code: [Select]

[Hooks]
_Nose <BASE>
_Centre <BASE>
_Left <BASE>
_Right <BASE>
_Prop <BASE>
_Tailer <BASE>

[HookLoc]
0 -1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0.24075 -8.68194 -1.09723
0 1 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 0.24075 -5.5259 -1.09723

thanks asheshouse i had the hooks but i removed the __ in front of of each word thats why it didn't work

[blazing]

The Pt elco is just about done all that needed is a new slot and I have to finish the LODs. however when i went to test it out the boat wouldn't move or fire it guns and tropedos, any ideas?

[asheshouse]

I presume that you are using one of the existing PT boat slots at the moment.   -- MAS501UNP ??

The likely reason that nothing is working is that the boat structure defined in hier.him is not compatible with the entries in ships.ini -- Have you done any editing of ships.ini?

There is lots of info readily available on Elco PT Boats including detailed hull lines.
I think you could still improve the hull shape a lot without a significant increase in polys.
Compare your model view with this image of the stern of the boat.

[blazing]

K I'll look into hull again. And yes I am using the mas105un slot

[blazing]

K i fix up a bit of the back of the hull is there any other place that needs fixing.I had looked at alot of Pt elco 80 plans and models and it seem  correct however i could be wrong.

Note: the pictures may seem off  as the screenshot could of been at an angle by mistake.
