First Person envelope problems

Post by Fiodis »

I'm trying to make a custom fpm with Ace's tutorial. My heirarchy looks like this:
Hidden/Spoiler:

Bone_l_forearm, bone_l_wrist, bone_r_forearm and bone_r_wrist have keyframes at 1 and 10.

However, ingame the mesh appears to be invisible. Ace's tut says this can occur because of missing keys, but I have them. At least, I think I do. Am I missing something?

Have a look with freecam if you can although I don't think it shows FPMs very well they may be pointing the wrong way. I guess the other question is the gun you are holding pointing the right way? and looking normal?

unfortunately you cant see the fpm with freecam
anyway, do you only see the gun ingame? that often means that you havent set the fpm up properly in the req and odf.

I don't see anything at all. It's rotated correctly in XSI, though....
