Region Help

[captainkman]

I am creating a region using cars from movies, but two of the cars are going backwards!
They are:
V-8 Intercepter Mad Max II
Christine

If you know of any other cars for my region, please use the link below:

Thanks

Those cars are not oriented in the right direction for use on roads. You could use Drivable Superadaptor,<kuid2:78193:950:1> to change their orientation so they can be used on roads or rails.

Please tell me how I can do that, I do not have much experience with content creation or editing.

Download the kuid2:78193:950:1 adapter if you don't have it.
Clone it to give it your kuid userid. It will be in CM opened for edit.
Select Edit in Explorer and edit the adapters config.txt file:
To make Christine the mesh and turn in by 180°, change the effects section to look like this:

effects
{
vehicle
{
kind "attachment"
default-mesh <kuid:67261:29069>
att "a.attach_180_ground"
}

Now change the adapters name to something different like this:

asset-filename "Drivable Christine"
username "Drivable Christine"

Delete all kuid lines in the kuid-table to look like this:

kuid-table
{
}

Close and Save the config.txt file

I tried this as a loco and it drives good on rails. However, as a car on roads, since the roads are slightly above base level, the tires on Christine are partway into the pavement.

Thanks, will try it. If successful, I will use it in my region even with the problem.

Didn't work. Christine won't show as the train or on the road.
