Custom Item doesn't appear, when some does - FlawlessHappiness - 11-19-2012

Yea, so i made some wall entities.
All wall entities show up in the editor.
Though 2 of them doesn't ingame while the others does.

What could i have done wrong, since they doesn't appear ingame?

There is no .cache file.

Tell me if you need more information, and what kind

What? In the level editor shows up but it doesn't in-game? Weird thing... is that wall custom? You say it's an entity, I reccomend more using static_objects (.dae) when it comes to walls and such Wink

But, usually, it's not that way 0_0

Are the entity bodies attached to the wall meshes, if any?

RE: Custom Item doesn't appear, when some does - FlawlessHappiness - 11-20-2012

I'm not sure..
How do i check that it's attached?

And i'm only using wall-entities, because it's an event Wink

Does the entity show up properly in the model viewer?

RE: Custom Item doesn't appear, when some does - FlawlessHappiness - 11-20-2012

I think I get it:

To attach a mesh to a body, you have to go to view-outline and there you attach the mesh to the body, like:

Body_1

-Mesh

Plus, what kind of entity is it? Have you considered making it a static_prop without any body?

It appears in UserDefinedVariables.

RE: Custom Item doesn't appear, when some does - FlawlessHappiness - 11-20-2012

I don't think a static_prop can be set active, and inactive Wink

That's what i'm trying to achieve.

EDIT: What do you mean by -Mesh in what you said?

Under Body_1 i have BodyShape_1 and polySurface164

Ok, then the model hierarchy is right. A static_prop cannot have bodies or it will be set invisible (or that I think). You can consider too sending me the model so I see what is wrong with it.
