Trying to make an Pilot placeable with Mission editor

[BlackLibrary]

Hi im trying to make an Pilot placeable with the mission editor.

as base i took the "pilot_f15_00.edm" model from ED.

build some lua and liveries. everything fine, but he stands half in the ground.

 

Anybody an idea why?

Hi BlackLibrary

 

To the best of my knowledge, the reason for this is best explained by the images below.

 

The X and Z axis on the 3D model pass straight through the centre of the pilots body, which means he appears submerged when placed in game. You will notice that the infantryman has both these axes at the base of the model, so he appears on the land surface. You can only change the XYZ axis if you have the original 3D model. I hope this answers your question. Cheers.

Knowing that the axis runs through center mass of the pilot model, could you tweak its elevation to get the feet at the same level as the ramp?

ok that explain the problem- but why stand he on the ground after ejection?
