conditional gmax object appearance

[Guest abelino]

Hi! (Sorry my english!)I would like to the Gmax made object is appearance, from 10:00 AM till 10:20 AM, every day.1) Patch this object with CAT (by Arno). (Which utility convert the mdl to asm?)2) (Prefferd way) I change in (Gmax made) XML? (Which tag, element or something to add?)3) In Gmax, attach an effect to object, and, in effect parameter is the time of apparance? (HOD=10,10;MOH=00,20)Which is the best (or possible) way?Thanksabelino

Hi Abelino,If you want the condition to apply to the entire object CAT is no option (that is for animations only). With XML code it is also not possible, so I think the best way is to code it either with IFIN1 commands in the ASM code or to use MDLTweaker (also available from my site).To get the object only between 10:00 and 10:20 you need two checks. One to see if the hour is 10 (I think the variable is GMT time, so you would need to think about that). And a second check to see if the minutes are between 0 and 20.
