Ok. It's very simple, and you could / should / must have found it if you had searched but being the great guy I am... #Tongue

Go make your voxel (with Voxel Section Editor or whatever you use). Then safe it. Now, open HVA Builder, and load your voxel. Then, safe it again. You'll now have a voxel and a HVA in the map where you saved it. Congratulations!

With HVA Builder, you can edit turrets or barrels or the body of a unit. You can also create animations with it, for instance, a walking animation.

For every voxel, and if you have for example a tank which has a turret, the tank's voxel and the turret's voxel both need a HVA. But if you load the tank voxel in HVA Builder the program will automatically load the tank's turret too, and thus if you safe the tank not only the tank's HVA appears but also that of the turret.

If you don't have a HVA, it's completely invisible. And it's super easy!

You don't even need to make new ones if you're not animating anything. Any default HVA from the game will suffice so long as it has no animation attached to it. If it's >88 bytes, rest assured it's special...

Oh? I never knew that. However, you understand that the HVA needs to be renamed right? Like, you have ptnk.vxl, ptnktur.vxl (the turret), and ptnkbarl.vxl (the barrel) then you need a ptnk.hva, a ptnktur.hva, and a ptnkbarl.hva.

another thing is that if you make a voxel and its not centered and at the bottom of some views you'll have to center it with the hva tool other wise you could result in having a tank or something driving around looking like a hover tank, lol. trust me i know, I've done it.
