walker/mechs have to have barl in the same vxl file, not a separate barl.vxl file

how can you do that when the titan body and legs is in a shp file and the barl is in vxl file ?

oi, i must be thinking of a mod that was like that ಠ_ಠ
then the name of the ecache file needs changing try ecache12.mix
theres a thread about naming the mix fiels somewhere...

joe, you've messed something up, put the old art and rules code back, and put mmchbarl.hva and mmchbarl.vxl in an expandXX.mix (XX=02-99).

because the barl is a bit bigger does this mean the original code of art ini wont work

art barrel length

PBarrelLength=250
SBarrelLength=250

Never ever change any of the original mix files! (except you really know what you're doing Wink

)

-Restore the original ini code of the titan.
PBarrelLength (for primary weapon) and SBarrelLength (for secondary) have nothing to do with the voxel. They are just telling the game from where to start the bullet and where it should draw the muzzle flash anim. (they are just an extension to the FireFLH keys and were meant to compensate the tilting barrel, which obviously doesn't work)

-make sure you name your barrel the same as the original (mmchbarl.vxl /.hva)

-place your barrels vxl/hva in an expandXX.mix (ecacheXX.mix should work too, but i'm not 100% sure) with XX being 02-99

ok, i reinstalled the game so nothings been changed the hva and the vxl are the correct name, and i put them in a mix file called expand02... BUT it still dont work, i can only seem to edit the barl with out changing its size, if i change its size it disappears from the game.

upload your barrel here so experienced voxeler can test it. Wink

-from my very early modding (8 years ago Very Happy

) i remember that i had problems with small voxel. There weren't shown or gave an IE. I don't know if it was "Will's VXL Editor b4a" who messed up the voxel or if TS had problems with very small voxel.
