i got a problem with gmax when i add a new object to an already existing model all the " tiny spheres that like for the tracks and the point were the weapon fires " those are visible in game ?? if i hide them its like they are deleted and arent there ingame

i had the same problem a while back. select the object you wanna hide, click on the hammer toolbar, then go into w3d propeties and uncheck the export geometry box.

Hey Guys, i tried to create an new Specialforce with the Col. Burton Model, but i got a serious Problem.... just look at the Screen i attached and you'll see

did you follow the bones i included in that tank you dowloaded i belive it was in the mammothtank topic
use those bones in there and the tank will be fine
you dont need the muzzle fx it is uses the same bone as the lauchbone

use this

Object AmericaVehicleMammoth

Draw = W3DTankDraw ModuleTag_01
DefaultConditionState
Model = v_gdi_mammth
Turret = Turret_B
WeaponFireFXBone = PRIMARY MuzzleFX
WeaponRecoilBone = PRIMARY BARREL
WeaponMuzzleFlash = PRIMARY MuzzleFX
WeaponLaunchBone = PRIMARY MuzzleFX
