the vehicle will fix itself in game (it has to do with animations) if you want to make the vehicle into a prop you must change the class label from flyer or hover to armedbuilding

So if I munge the vehicle will look right?
And in ZE it will look like that?

Basically Yes, for placement just try and place the main body of the ship where you want don't worry about the floating bits.

For the AAT did you also place it as an object?
Are you loading a non-custom CIS side and is there a call for the AAT in the LUA.
That is probably overriding your changed one in your world. But the thing is you can't not (hmm double negative) call for it to be loaded because then you would not get sounds and explosions and such.

If it is a placed object (non spawned vehicle) you can make a copy of the required files, drop them into the appropriate folders in your world directory change the names a bit, hex edit the msh file to use the new tga file and place that one in your world. Easy huh :)
If it is a spawned vehicle you may have to make a custom side for it and then the only thing that would have to change is the colors in the TGA, and everything can keep it's orignal name.
Then of course you'd need to add the proper bits to the lua

I placed the AAT as an object and I've got all necassary TGAs in my msh folder.
So why isn't it show up ingame?

And the msh file too right :wink:
Now is it not showing up in game or it shows up and it is still brown?

You can't just dump them into your addon folder if that's what you mean. You have to actually build a new side.

Just making sure. :P

Try a manual clean on your side folder, then re-munging to see if that does the trick.

ok I will try it, but before one thing I believe I've got the reason.
On my map there are 2 AATs spawned as a vehcile and some AATs placed as an object. And the vehicle AATs are brown, because I didn't include the custom sides yet. Are the other AATs brown too, because of the missing the custom sides? :)

If you're not specifying a custom side then yeah. Are you referencing a custom side in your lua?

No I don't have any custom sides in my side folder and in my lua.

Well, I have a new problem:
I placed some ATTEs and some MTTs in my new map, but they don't show up ingame, why?
Maybe it's because they are command vehicles?

Yep, you probably need to add the CommandHover pool

There's a prop gunship in the stock Coruscant world assets if you want to use that one instead of the flyer one.
