The THN files are very tricky. One little typo and it just comes up as blank black screen. I would especially look for a missing quotationmark " or a missing bracket { or }

I always save backups after each change I make, because sometimes it just takes way too long to find a typo. It's easier to just start from a backup and redo my latest changes.

As for the light group, that refers to what lights hit your object. You'll have to look at your actual lights and see what groups they are. So, if you have 3 light sources, and they are groups 1, 2 and 3, but your object is light group 1, well only the 1st light will shine on that object. When I make custom thn's, I always make all my lights group 1 and all my objects group 1, it's just easier that way.

You'll quickly learn to hate the cutscenes

'template_name = "" ' is correct for the path, since you aren't basing it off anything. If you change the "target_part" to HpEngine01 then you'll need to change "target_type = ROOT" to "target_type = PART" as well.

thx guys

just a quick question, is this right or the other one?

{{1, 0, 0}, {0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 1}}

or

{{1,0,0},{0,1,0},{0,0,1}}

should both work. spaces are usually ignored in ini files -> they only serve as a seperator. The brackets, commas, ... dont nessessarily need spaces after them.

but sometimes its good to have some formatting.
