Mover Problem

[fashahhh]

I've currently got 23 movers in my map so far however only a couple seem to be showing up ingame whilst the rest have simply disappeared. It's quite strange because their collison & sound effects remain.

I've tried zoning off different areas, changing the zoneinfo's but still can't get them to show up. Does anyone know the reason why this happens & how it can be sorted?

Thanks.

Did you tell the textures on the movers to have a fake backdrop, to be invisable or transparent?

Does it HOM when you look at the sides and top and bottom?

Check crono's suggestions, and also make sure you select all of them and go to Movers > Show Polys to ensure they actually appear. You need to rebuild after this, of course, but it is possible that if they are very complex or other geometric errors are present, they won't appear.

You've probably hit the vertex limit, are you using enigma's patch? If not it should still be around on BfNP's ftp.

They all appear fine when using show polys, they just don't appear in game. I think it may be caused by one of the tanks I converted to a mover which is quite complex. However, I need it to be a mover to help stay under the node limit .

Something that the rest of the world doesn't know about...? [/b]

Ahhh that's it! Cheers Wael you were bang on the money. Just deleted a couple of the tanks & now everything is how it should be. I tried the ftp but can't seem to get it to work anymore . I think I'll just convert the tanks to meshes.

My curiosity is piqued!
