info on material texture

[simbio 56]

I am tryng to archive the same method of leveld on enlight only part wich have a turn on-off on the VC, if you use standard fs method once you turn on any light every light material is on.Another unknow problem is my windshield I have created and animated, I menage to compile them alone but when I try to compile them with my model I get stuck, i have tried to craete another single polygon animate it but no menage to compile with the aircraft.If some one want to try i can send the gmax file to test with their cration and see if is maybe a bug due the fact of the strange rotation of the axis I have change the axis pivot and use this value X:0 Y:-36 Z:123.5, after I have animate the X axis on rotate it from 0-50.http://img483.imageshack.us/img483/4905/testfz7.jpgThanks for suggestionSimbio

Check the dope sheet (or do they not have that in GMax?) to verify that you have code attached to the part.Good luck.

Hi Patrick and Bill I am still working on FS9 but I will also create the FSX version soon.About the windshield:My windshield, that you see, are attach to the fuselage and i want them to be animate when is raining, in the external model, not on the vc, of course there will be also in the VC, but not with this release.I menage to compile everithing but once i add animation to those polygon it dosen't compile it.I even change and create only one face poly with the same pivot angle so it turn correctly on the glass but no way to compile it.I have insert in the makemdl.parts.xml the code from bill but i don't think is the problem here but who know :(For the material light well I raise my hand and say I am sorry for that i hope one day to see the way @-@.By the way thank you for answer me :-)
