is it me?!

Just today I made this really cool driveable Van in the MOTORBIKE slot, I customized the meshes in meta and put it in a wad, the wad loads okay and the level containing the van will start, but as soon as you look at the van the game crashes! :mad:
every time I make something really cool it doesn't work!! what am I doing wrong, and in the editor some original parts of the mororbike all look like handlebars! I hope somebody can help me out here, I stink at remeshing objects!

When the wad is missing something, it makes up for it usually by using a part of Lara. Conversely, if you have too many objects, it would crash, however, perhaps your problem lies with the vertices limit?

I didn't create the mesh for the van I'm just usising the one from Nightmare in vegas, I needed to modify it so it would be facing the right way. I will clean up the wad a little and see the results...

....dosen't work, it seems like the object has made these wierd corrupted dummy meshes. :(

You did do something in Meta, right?
Well if you save, use the 'triangle have four points' (or something like that) option in the savemenu..... That could be something that is wrong..... ;)

The closest I ever came to this problem was when you looked at a flame the game crashed. It turned out the wad was missing an object which I think was default sprites (say think because it was a long time ago). I don't really know what the default sprites do or whether your van would use them but I thought it worth a mention.

[disco-fever]

Your Right there are no default sprites in the wad, but how come every mesh in my original wad exept the van itself turned into the handelbar mesh from the motorbike?

[disco-fever]

:D ;) IT WORKS ;) :D

I cleand up my wad, added the default sprites, adn cleared the strange meshes, and it works! heres a pic of my master piece!

If I could make an Audi TT..... whoa I will fall in love with myself... lol

anyway I like that van being drivable! does it have it's sides graffitied with the dragon symbol? :)

[disco-fever]

No, but it can be retextured really easy! The reason that it doesn't have all original its textures is because when you import from meta it has no textures :)
