The R5 is driving me nuts

[xwingguy]

Ok I've tried nearly everything I think of to get the R5 to work and everything fails. They always show up in the zeroeditor but never in the game. I've tried:

-changing the collision geometry to another object
-changing the skin
-adding it in th reqs

nothing works

[PvtParts]

yeah it really bugs me too.

Ive never gotten it to work. but ive never done what im going to suggest either:

make a new one. you can use the old r5 msh and stuff, but make a new odf for it. copy from the health and ammo odfs so you can understand how they work. then add the vehicle health things. it should work.

wait....R5? I didn't know there was a R5 mesh.

[drummerzoid1]

yes, in the all folder

[PvtParts]

nah my mistake. there is an R5 from the old bf1 assets.

the one in the alliance is a playable character not a recharge droid, and it is an r2 unit

[CarbineImpulse]

R2 is in there (all_droid_r2d2.msh)... couldn't see R5 though what's it's name.. perhaps I'm going blind

[xwingguy]

R5 not R2 (R2 works fine)

[Teancum]

That's an R4 droid, not an R5.

[xwingguy]

........that's not the point. Point is that it doesn't work!!!

[The_Emperor]

Penguin got it to work didnt she? in her Tatooine valley map

[Teancum]

What do you want it to be? A droid like the R2, a recharge droid?

[Epena]

Dude, maybe that -is- your problem...if you're calling it an R5 in the req! Lol..

[xwingguy]

NO IT ISNT! com_item_space_vehicalrecharge!

I want the recharge droid to show up in the game! I don't give a @#$% what the R# is!

Try placing it in your World1/MSH and World1/ODF folders. It's possible they weren't munged into common.
