Adding a dummyroot to an existing XSI using notepad

Post by Ded10c »

How would I go about this? Can I just copy-paste the HP in at the top, or do I need something more specific?

You can just paste a

Frame frm-dummy {

FrameTransformMatrix {
1,0,0,0,
0,1,0,0,
0,0,1,0,
0,0,0,1;;
}
In above the first parts of the model.
Underneath the SI scene data entry's at its start
SI_CoordinateSystem coord {
SI_Angle {
SI_Camera Camera1 {
SI_Ambience {
SI_Fog {
SI_Light light1 {

It does not need a mesh, but you might want to give it one.
Generally though, they should not be required If you built the model right.

The cloakmorphing works beautifully now. Once I've adjusted the animations they should be good to go. Thanks, TwoSheds.

It works fine with that code copypasta'd verbatim.
