Read up on this sort of topic before you post questions like this. You can collide with dynamic objects with polygon collision, but you can't be within the object's boundaries (no buildings) for some reason.

are you sure because there are some WW2 buildings with FPSC you cna kind of go in on one of my maps there was a stock building with an open top floor where the roof was bombed and there was a way to get inside and sniper and that worked fine so it must be to do with the way its modeled

Thanks

Was it static or dynamic though? It may just be when you're completely surrounded by the model.

Dynamic I think because I made a mistake by copying and pasting and this made everything go dynamic until I noticed but there is a chance it was static. Surely if the collision is setup the same it would work providing you disabled physics and made it immobile. If i still had that map I would test but sadly I lost most of my best maps

Thanks

@Storm 6000,

Greetings. Mostly definitely had to have been static. Everything defaults to good old box collision, when set to dynamic. It's hardcoded.

I can't swear to the hard coded part because I just don't know enough about the source, but I have recently been trying to get a vehicle that can carry the player into my level, and I have to agree. No matter how I make the model, it defaults to box collision once set to dynamic, forcing me to keep my vehicle low and flat.

On another note, I saw something a while back where S4 had the player in a chopper model that was moving up. That could be something totally different though.

Best.

I'm sorry, my answers are limited. You must ask the right question.

Xplosys, I sent you the replacement scripts for the lift,S4 used the same method for the chopper,did you receive them?
It may be that the method used will work for this,maybe not,as I have no great need for vehicles particularly I wont spend any time on them.

Best rolfy.

Mail me if you want the info on this.

@xplosys : I sent you an email about the lift as you must have the right lift parts for it to work.

@test of will : Yes it can be done with some work.

I SWEAR that in the source there is info on an FPE definition called collisionmode = X that controls whether to use box collision, cylidrical ect.

Look in some FPE's you should find it. Unless Lee broke something in the new versions, that *should* work. I don't know if polygonal collision is supported though.

Part of the problem is with Yahoo mail. It deletes some of the files at will (perceived threats). Please send it to my email link on this page. I have to send back to you through Yahoo though. Darn mail servers!!!!

Airslide, I'll look into that too. Thanks.

Best.


Test of Will: This is not a hijack attempt. We really are working on the problem.
