Custom Modded Folder 4.32
-
“I SEE!!:shock:” said the blind man!! That explains why the old destroyed models effect other CT’s!! Thanks for the pointers Ramsay and Arty. Can we get together sometime? I do have a few questions you might have the answer to.
@Arty- you are correct. I got a little lazy and started using the replace mode in LOD editor ver. 6.32. Previously I was doing it the “correct” way with ver 6.31 or something. I was told that the older version was recommended for working with BMS databases and that’s why I did not have these issues before.

Sure, always open to a PM. Don’t expect too much though - in many cases (like the duplicate lod 1 & 2 in the destroyed records) I’ve copied the structure of existing records out of fear of breaking how the EXE works (rather than knowing how it works).
I got a little lazy and started using the replace mode in LOD editor ver. 6.32.
The replace method, for the most part, works for TOMCATZ models as that was how he designed and used his models but he still got caught out now and again by models that shared medium LODs or only had 1 detailed LOD.
Hayab’s models include the lower detailed LODs and destroyed models needed by the BMS Team for a rebuilt/new DB. Some of these are shared, missing or incomplete in the existing u5 DB so need new parent records to work properly.

Okay. Actually do I need to replace the destroyed model at all?

no as many use the same also… so new parents.

Okay then that will make my job ALOT easier. I will be able to re-release the Full version with no errors sooner.

It depends how detailed you want the destroyed models to be.
In many cases the destroyed model is in smoke and flames so even when the “wrong” model (i.e. destroyed truck) is used it doesn’t look too bad - though it’s obvious why it’s on the BMS requirements list.
IMHO most of the improvement is covered by upgrading L1-L3, the other stuff is less important for an unofficial upgrade but nice to have.

If u want more Lods then the ones Ramsay has u can declare them there.
Example old one had lod5=678 lod6=679 (Random numbers not real!!!)
U create the new parent based on Ramsays models and declare it. Then instead of 4 LODS alter the value to 6 and at the lod input the above numbers like for lod5 678 and for lod6 679… then when far that lod 5 has to kick in it will display those… and u will have the old ones display…like this

where Ramsay has 7 LODS u see lod 6 and lod 7 are the old one records… -
