I have seen some maps(realm of chaos and other) where the objects were not standing straight but how can i say this? turned so they were standing at another side than normally, etc. an x-wing with its front in the ground and a cruiser with a part of its hangar entrance in the ground, how do i do this?? is it making a new object or is there another way to turn it like that, and also is there a way to make objects bigger than normal without using XSI?? pls answer both of my question..

And b4 you tell me to use search, i tryed, but nothing came up, i checked the topics but it was all unrelevant :evil:

Zeroedit Rotation controls:
X + left click = rotate along red axis (axes will show up when you hold X)
X + right click = rotate along green axis
X + mousewheel click = rotate along blue axis

Making objects bigger:
You put a certain line in the file's msh.option file, but I forget what it is....

-scale <float>

<float> = decimal, eg. 0.5 for half the orginal size

or 2.0 for twice the orginal size

uhm i dont understand how to make the objects bigger, can you explain it with lots of details and thanks for the help hebes

You put that in the msh.option file for the object.

I'll explain to you if you want me to tell you on Xfire, cmdAt-a. Then you can ask as many unrelated questiosn as usual

so i just put what penguin said, in the msh.option file for the object, example, if i wanna make the cantina bigger than normal, i just find the msh.option for cantina and modify something as 2.0 as penguin said so it get 2 times bigger and then when i place the cantinas odf its bigger??? and sure Qdin i'll ask you some questions tomorrow lol

four threads lower than this one wrote:And as for resizing a unit, you can resize it with going into the .odf and adding the line "GeometryScale = _". Adding a "2" would be doubling the size, et cetera. Then you go into the unit's .msh's .option file and add "-scale _", where the blank is the same number you put in the .odf. Be warned, using more than 1.something for your scale number will give you a very distorted model.

The same applies to static objects (not just units), like the cantina you mentioned. However, as long as it's not a unit model, you won't get the distortion I warned about.

oh, thanks alot, but i still dont understand it 100%, where do i add that line in my odf??? Do it matter where to add it?? and in the objects msh.option i have to also add a 2 if i want it doubled???

Under the properties section of the odf.

No, if you add it to the odf, you don't need it in the msh.option.

so i only have to add 2.0 where you said in the odf and then its doubled when i add it in zeroeditor??

I have a problem, i dont got ANY msh.option files in the msh folder i asked Qdin to send me his but he only got the tga.option and i putted in -scale 10.0 but nothing happend, what do i then have to do??
