>Forces< 357 Posted April 12, 2017 looking really nice man, I can help you when it comes to the xml area (because I'm a full blender user) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m1chaell0vett 2 Posted April 12, 2017 I followed that tutorial but got stuck when I went to put it in the game maybe because I'm not using spintires legacy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m1chaell0vett 2 Posted April 12, 2017 i would say im done up to testing it in the game i just want to see how what i have works and make changes after that.... may have missed the main chassis bone i am trying to use the spintires editor to get it in the game but the tutorials are not very helpful lets say i have the model and x file done and bones created whats the next step?

Hazzard 502 Posted April 12, 2017 Wait. Have you put the truck into game yet? I would recommend getting your truck in with just the cdt and model before you worry about doing bones... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m1chaell0vett 2 Posted April 12, 2017 Ok so what I'll do then is delete the Bones and then save seperatly and then how do I get it in the game to see it? I also have everything in separate groups in 3ds like body... left front shock etc.... left front spring etc...... front axle.... glass..... is that ok? It made for a huge list but then I was able to texture everything easier does that make any difference? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vengeful Maniac 95 Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) yeah your point ?The point is, you shouldn't be criticizing new modders. Your mods are beginner level at best, you really have no room to talk. Edited April 30, 2017 by Vengeful Maniac 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SomeWhiteGuy 0 Posted May 14, 2017 Any clue why suspension stays static? Or why you see the model that you've built in 3dsmax but when you get in to the body disappears while the character, wheels and drive shafts from DrGonzo remain? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SKŲŁŁΘԲÐЗѦŦH 747 Posted May 20, 2017 (edited) would y'all stop comparing **** size and get back on topic. sorry it's just CC has a ego that's the size of Texas. anyway back on topic, follow these videos (starting from this one) and you should have no problem, reason why i'd rather link a video is because explaining all of this thru text would take awhile, so follow the steps in each of these videos and you should be fine, if there's anything left out on them, ask away. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvgAM2LIJm8 Edited May 20, 2017 by SKŲŁŁΘԲÐЗѦŦH 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banksy's_Graffiti 7 Posted May 21, 2017 Honestly Stetsons videos were extremely helpful to me in making a mod...he gives you the basic skills needed to grow and expand on....just have them playing on repeat and youll get it. If not feel free to contact me, I'm still extremely new to modding but i understand the basic concepts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banksy's_Graffiti 7 Posted May 21, 2017 When I was building my mod I had to set up a mesh XML before it actually showed up I just used some basic textures like black and grey 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
