are you really sure that HpMount is not textured...

hardpoints aren't textured
why anyway?
they only show the game where to place the gun/equipment.

you can edit existing ships and add hardpoints to them with utf-edit without ever touching a skin...

You suggest just deleting the HpMount and adding it wit the UTF editor?...hmm...why not?...I'll give it a try...

Nope...doesn't work either....

ok, do you have any other hardpoints grouped (sharing face edges or vertecies) along with your hpmount? because as far as i know, there is absolutly no extra hp associated with the hpmount hardpoint. (hpsheild, hpthruster, for instance, have extra stuff put on top of them).

your hpmount should be the absolute only thing that is in that group. and if you can do it right, it should be the only face in that group as well.

You've probably already tried this, but what I would do:

Delete the HP
Export the Ship
You now have a workable ship without the HP
Import the Ship
Add the HP - make a triangle below the ship facing down, no texture, a single face

That's what I would do if I was having trouble, it may seem tedious or unnecisary, but it would ensure that the HP was done correctly, and with no extra faces or textures. Good luck.

Could it be the fact that I placed the HpShield01 inside the hull?
I just noticed the shield generator is attatched to the hull on other ships....

Tue Mar 16, 2004 7:21 am by Schizm

that might do it too. hpsheild01 is a surface/exterior hardpoint, so...

nope, HpShield01 doesn't have to be on the surface... and it is not connected to HpMount... AFAIK

a message from firebase...

Sun Striker, I might be sending you the ship. I'm gonna try something first tough....

Well this is just too much!

I re-did the fighter..made completely new Hp's...and this time I put the hpShield on the surface...THERE WERE TWO SHIELDS VISIBLE ON THE SHIP!
one was flying underneath as usual, the other was where it was supposed to be...

I'm sending you the m3d sun striker....
