| I need to know why the entityorder function does not work. Im setting an animmesh'child entitys to a value of -1 and my 3d dashboard still disappears into walls. Anyone know??? |
| ||
| I don't understand what you are doing, what is set to what, and what disapear? |
| ||
| i have a 3d dashboard which stays in front of the camera. with entityorder it is supposed to be drawn in front of everything but isnt. when it gets close to a wall it sinks into it. but if its supposed to be drawn in front it should not disappear. Its 3PS so increasing entityradius to protect it wont work. |
| ||
| maybe posting some example code will help people solve your issue. from what I have seen, the entityorder command works just fine. |
| ||
| EntityOrder always works fine for me, so I'm guessing you simply did something wrong in code. Probably you think you are setting the dashboard to -1 but in fact, due to some little nitpick in your code, you are not. |
