    Pretty much what the title says but I was trying to make a crate using nadeox's tutorial but I get this error

    Something is wrong here, like a space or bracket, or maybe it can't find your object. In you DAE, try renaming your object to crate, and including the subset object, and set your flexbodies to crate and crate. Tinker with what I said;)

    The My car bit wouldn't work because I called it 'crate'. edit: looked back at it I see my mistake the node group needs to be 'crate I think. I'll try it, but I don't really feel motivated right now.

    k. I put the MyCar there because that is the name of the node group you created

    I know I had 2 different node groups when I only wanted 1 so that probably messed everything up. 40 Posts and this is the first few days of my summer holiday's *grimaces*

    - - - Updated - - -

    It still crashes with the same error message:mad:.

    Bad formatting can lead to crashes too.

    Code:
    
    "flexbodies": [,
         ["cube", ["MyCar"]],
     ],
	"nodes": [         ["id", "posX", "posY", "posZ"],
         {"nodeWeight":70},
         {"group":"MyCar"},
         {"frictionCoef":0.7},
         {"nodeMaterial":"|NM_METAL"},
         {"collision":true}
         {"selfCollision":false}
         ["tfl", 1, 1, 2],
         ["tfr", 1, 1, 2],
         ["tbl", 1, -1, 2],
         ["tbr", -1, -1, 2],
         ["bfl", 1, 1, 0],
         ["bfr", -1, 1, 0],
         ["bbl", 1, -1, 0],
         ["bbr", 1, -1, 0],


etc..
    Try keeping all the section line with a "Tab Space" infront of them (just press tab while in text editor to add a Tab Space), or copy paste from here above.
    Make sure also the commented parts like //Top has the same amount of space infront. I got my game crashing when loading a car I made because of that :\

    I'm saying the first line. I will see if tomorrow I can post a empty file people can use a start template, so you don't have to mess with all that thing and get into some syntax errors.
