These might be related to the issue, I can't be sure. I just show you that current version of ZModeler can import and export the model with spoiler and the spoiler will be working fine.

Oleg, another question. Do you know how to make the spoiler work on the Addon? The spoiler works now on my mod as replace, but not on Addon.

unfortunately, no ideas on this. I assume this is all up to configuration in metadata files.

Please help me. I spent this mod 2 weeks, until now this vehicle has bugs.
After I exported default sirens from default police car to add-on vehicle like this, random object always scaling-up when I turn the siren on.
object random scaling.png
As u can see, there's 2 object scaling-up when the light is flashing.


i don't know if that because i've put a lot of parts under/inside the chassis or there's user-defined option called Node has value = 7 after exported files.
node 7.png
Before I export the file, I've always set siren external id to 0 and then remove user-defined option called Node except chassis[COL], chassis_lowlod[COL], chassis_dummy[COL], door_p/d_side main & [COL].

I need ur help!!!

I noticed, after i did this, i dont have GTA5 materials more...: https://imgur.com/a/POssE9P

Is there a way how can i delete these "parts" without losing the materials?

You have probably removed an XML file from "config" folder. That's not what you were supposed to do. Restore this file or let ZModeler download it (via updates).

The "Parts" branch is shown in Settings -> Profile ->Editor on "Preferences -> Filters-> GTARage" branch there. You can select this branch there and press "Delete selected". Then restart ZModeler.

The siren parts in game use some specific logic to scale and rotate some parts around the vehicle (usually siren_glass?). This creates visual effect like filmed on an actual camera. I don't know much on how this works, but there were some topics on this issue earlier on forum: "ELS Lights" or something like that.

Note, you should not edit or remove "Node" user-defined property. This property is edited automatically when you use "GTA5 Options" window in properties window. Toggling these boxes will change the value on "Node" user-defined property and exporter will write these options in an hierarchy for this part.

Hello, I've tried searching for this with no luck. Trying to export a .ybn file leads to the program failing to respond. It's a collision for a small gokart track and it weighs in around 200k polys. It's my first time working on a ybn, so not sure what to expect.. Have I just asked too much of it? Cheers.

Hello.
Sorry for delay, I was on vacation.

Collision should be as simple as possible. You should also utilize as much primitive (boxes, spheres and capsules) collisions as possible (e.g. original game collisions use them excessively and as primary collision method). Geometry collision is a CPU killer in game, avoid using complex collisions. I advise to drop geometry collision triangles count to less than 1K per object if possible. you can make YBN file to use several collisions inside, so your track should be made of collision fragments initially (track sectors, segments etc.)

Also, I would suggest to create a simple plane as an initial collision (square plane) just to ensure the .ybn file created by ZModeler works fine. I have tested .ybn export on some city sector, but I can't remind how detailed it was. I doubt it was any close to 100K, it was significantly less in poly count.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'd say it is just more complex that needs be. I'll get in and have a play.

Hello.
Most likely the file you are opening was not created by ZModeler and is not a native game file. If the file was manipulated via CodeWalker, then it is likely will not get imported. The most common scenario is when users try to "unlock" locked files with CodeWalker.

Hi. Did you manage to get the comet6 spoiler to work in the addon or did you not study it anymore?

Allow individual exporting/importing of FTP connections or allow FTP connections to reside in the project properties. verizon internet login

use third-party tools to map FTP to a local system drive. Something like Google Drive for google cloud storage.

probably, you have two GTARage plugins in ZModeler and one of them does not work. Check the "Filters" folder in ZModeler - may be something is not good there? I advise to delete GTARage.zmf from your ZModeler, run ZModeler and ensure "yft" files are not shown among those available for import in "Import" window. Then let ZModeler download updates, restart ZModeler and give it a try again.

Also, on your first screenshot, the file you have selected is shown as "21 Kb" only, I assume the file is empty (only small screenshot is saved there). So, this could be the issue too, as on the second screenshot you are picking the file that is 4 Mb.
