    Hi, i'm using modo to model stuff and have tried to follow the guide at the wiki and have managed to get the models into the game. The collision doesn't work though, i have tried to set the collision to visible mesh to no avail. So do i have to use blender?

    I believe it has to be called "Colmesh-1"

    You can use any program that exports to .DAE.

    I have replicated the hierarchy, but it still doesn't work. There is also a collision mesh listed in the shape editor :confused:

    What is the difference between collision-1 and Colmesh-1? And what does the three icons mean? I can see that the mesh is the white triangles but what are the two others??

    Ingame use the collision tris debugger (L or K, cycle till it says on the top of the window). Check if the collision are there (shift c and fly around the object)

    Debugger looks like


    Also make sure both object have the same origin point and scale.

    Alright it has been rotated 90 degrees for no reason. :mad:

    I made another file making sure everything had the same orientation and position, same result.. Even if i rotate the collision mesh in modo it still doesnt work


    Nevermind it works, for some reason...
