| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | **Q: Why can't I render something to a GUI?** \\ | ||
| - | A: Try these steps | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | - Make sure the material for the GUI sub mesh is transparent. Ask modeller to double check if unsure | ||
| - | - Ensure that correct Submesh is set up using the model editor | ||
| - | - Ensure that you are not changing the material of the Submesh in code (For instance, the keypad in 0.6 changes its ilum texture, but the specific mesh must be called) | ||
| - | - Is your GUI's draw function being called? Put a cLux_AddDebugMessage in there as a test and it should iterate every frame. | ||
| - | - Has the GUI been set as inactive either in the editor or in script with Terminal_SetGuiActive? | ||
| - | - Finally, make sure you are rendering something simple like a label to start before trying to implement a full blown GUI! | ||

| **Q:** **Oh no! One of my levers have weird interaction. It won't move, or it suddenly inverts the mouse movement!** \\ | **Q:** **Oh no! One of my levers have weird interaction. It won't move, or it suddenly inverts the mouse movement!** \\ | ||
| A: Lever interaction is tricky. First try changing the entity's MoveDirection. If that doesn't help and the problem only occurs when the lever is almost at its max or min position, try limiting the range of the joint in the .ent file. | A: Lever interaction is tricky.

| ===== Modeling ===== | ===== Modeling ===== | ||
| + | **Q: I have created a socket but it is not following along with the skeleton** \\ | ||
| + | A: Make sure that you have not created the socket on a controller bone. These are not used by the engine and will remain at the same postion. Normally you can spot them by the "_Ctrl" suffix. To fix, just create the socket at some other bone. | ||

| + | **Q: My export to detail meshes are 100x larger than usual\\ | ||
| + | ** | ||
| + | A: You might be using a new exporter that has these issues. in export settings set the units to "Centimeter" | ||
