[help] MM CFG Model

Xyphos · January 6, 2018

I'm trying to use a custom MM cfg file to clone an existing stock part, the model and textures are already in Squad's folder, which is a different folder than my cfg file.

how do I use the MODEL node to get the part to show in the parts menu? right now, it exists but it's invisible and you cannot pick it back up once you have it placed in the editor

If your just wanting to use a stock part but change stuff with it you don't need model nodes you can just use ( +PART[******] )

no, it's a completely custom cfg, not a copy, I'm just using the stock model and textures.

LOL can you post what part and your custom cfg sounds like you still can just +PART

...that seems like a lot more work than necessary; I'm guessing you can't use models across directories?

look at this one

MODEL
{
  model = ProceduralFairings/sideModel
  texture = fairing1, ProceduralFairings/fuselage1
}

but most of the time mods that use mode node have all the MU and Textures in one folder

Xyphos · January 6, 2018

eh, well your patch works. thanks a ton, I'll be sure to credit you. I'm not ready to release it yet, I want to test and tweak it a bit.

Mecripp · January 6, 2018

Try this for a model node

	MODEL
	{
		model = Squad/Parts/Engine/liquidEngineLV-N/model
		scale = 1.0
		texture = model000, Squad/Parts/Engine/liquidEngineLV-N/model000
	}

nope, still invisible. I guess I'll stick to your copy then. thanks again!

Scale is a vec3, not a single float. Try "scale = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0", or just omit it. And, if you're using the original texture in the original directory, you don't need the "texture" line, either. Just the "model =" line.

I use the MODEL node all the time for my custom parts and the props for my MAS plugin, where the model is in a completely different directory.

Xyphos · January 6, 2018

well, I've modified it some more, but now I'm having trouble with the FX; the augmented mode is too close to the nozzle and the LF-Only mode is no where near the nozzle, and I can't seem to move them?

should match the first one

fxOffset = 0, 0, 1.6

Can't see the smoke but if it's right you might change

			MODEL_MULTI_PARTICLE
			{
				modelName = Squad/FX/hydroLOXFlame
				transformName = thrustTransform
				emission = 0.0 0.0
				emission = 0.05 0.0
				emission = 0.075 0.25
				emission = 1.0 1.25
				speed = 0.0 0.5
				speed = 1.0 1.2
				localOffset = 0, 0, 2.6             <------------  HERE to 				localOffset = 0, 0, 1.0

			}

Looks like a missing line loading to see and are you wanting to move the glow down also ?

Xyphos · January 6, 2018

I want it to behave like an engine should. I've tried editing the values myself to no avail.

Doesn't look like localOffset = ***** is doing anything

yeah, that's exactly the problem I'm having, same thing with fxOffset

A problem I ran across with some parts a few years back is that the offset values seem to be scaled by the transform (some of the engines for the old KOSMOS mod). Try a much bigger number, like 10x the value you're trying.

Xyphos · January 6, 2018

nope, 10x didn't do anything, either,

but while you're here, @MOARdV any chance of getting RPM to work with the Mk2 inline cockpit? just a single monitor would be great.

That's a disappointment.

As for RPM cockpits - I don't work on RPM IVAs any longer. I'm working on a replacement mod for RPM. I'd be happy to include a Mk2 inline IVA if someone wants to put one together, but I don't have the spare time to work on RPM IVAs in addition to MAS.

Instead of "localOffset" you need to use:

localPosition = 0,0,0

and you don't need "fxOffset" thingi with ModuleEnginesFX.

Spoiler

PREFAB_PARTICLE
{
localOffset = x,y,z
}

MODEL_MULTI_PARTICLE
{
localPosition = x,y,z
}

Hide contents

PREFAB_PARTICLE

MODEL_MULTI_PARTICLE
{
localPosition = x,y,z
}

Will test that out have tried but no change

			MODEL_MULTI_PARTICLE
			{
				modelName = Squad/FX/hydroLOXFlame
				transformName = thrustTransform
				emission = 0.0 0.0
				emission = 0.05 0.0
				emission = 0.075 0.25
				emission = 1.0 1.25
				speed = 0.0 0.5
				speed = 1.0 1.2
                localOffset = 0, 10, 0
			}

@sebi.zzr HEHE that did the trick thanks
