How's it going every one?
I hope some one here is an exorcist! I have been trying to load a model of a tank into my game. The model loads fine and evey thing but i keep having this problem w/ the turret. It works fine when the ROTATE LIMB a,b,x,y,z command is rem(ed). But when i put the line of code in that allows the turret to track its targets, the turret gets scalled about 5x bigger than the hull! any one know how to get this to work?

It seems to work perfectly here. It may be that the limb on your object isn't centered correctly (it's 0,0,0 isn't in the center of your object). Could you post a small example of how you are trying to do this. You need to post the code (and media if you don't use DBP made object like I did).

sure,all i need to do is this:

Here is the even stranger part. This was all working fine before. But then i scaled the model down, and added a cylindar at the base of the turret. thats when this problem started

With your code I get the first image here. It is flipping the turret on the x axis instead off the y. In the next 2 images I am only rotating it on the z axis and on the y and z in the last.

[edit] fila attachments not working for me. Is there anything the TGC have that is not bugged to death?
