Admins don't nail me for this, but i have a theory on why the camera won't move. It's because the model doesn't have a hard point right? If that's not it then im still lost on why the camera won't move at all. Maybe Kyross is right and the model is too big. ANyways Thanks in Advance!

No, cameras don't have anything to do with hardpoints. What units are the camera values in? Try setting them to a GIGANTIC number, like fifteen thousand, and you will be able to tell if those settings work. Back up the file first, of course.

Hey guys here's an update and a question. Update-- I started back up this project (been busy). Question-- simple, which line tells the object to have the jedi starfighter engine effect?

For THAT, you will need to add hard points to the object.

Make these lines disappear:

Thanks Xwingguy!
Ok so right now im trying to A) Get teh camera where i want it. but it doesn't want to.
I've set teh Z-axis to -15000.0, but i see no change what so ever. What other factors do i need to change? It can't be the Y or X axis. And i don't think TrackCenter, Trackoffset, or tiltvalue will help change the camera.
EyePointOffset = "0.0 1.0 -15000.0"
TrackCenter = "0.0 0.0 0.0"
//TrackOffset = "0.0 2.5 8.0"
TiltValue = "5.0"
B) Im trying to get teh Star destroyer dome flying and here's a section of my BF2front

for B i suggest you check that 1) you have the mentioned side in the correct folder or 2) you have actually munged the side.

That error means 1 of two things
1) fsd is misspelled and is really some other 3 letter code
2)You're missing the req in sides\fsd folder
