Title: [SOLVED] .mdx in .wmo
Post by: Chaos on October 17, 2012, 06:19:39 am

So, guys as the title says it's all about .mdx objects in a .wmo, so I got this freaking idea today about 4 hours ago 2 o'clock in the morning and this idea wasn't shaking of my freaking mind.

I thought about an playerhousing system which is build up 95 % on Noggit, the rest would be teleportquests to get there and something to eat for the characters (cause I am quite an addict in roleplaying). So I build up an house, thought "hey Chaos good job there, quite not done but have a look at it how it's in the game", so I packed it in an .mpq started my homeserver logged in and surprise, the .mdx objects were not there, or just some and with a camerapush they vanished.

So I kinda remember an bug with an older rev, or I don't actually know if that was a bug in first place (which is one of the reasons why I marked this one here as a question). So first things, first:

Is this a bug of Noggit, or if not can it be fixed otherwise?

If not I thank you for reading and I'm going to get my Katana for the ritual suicidal. (Just kiddin, but to be honest I almost crouched the stairs up 20 minutes ago).

So if it can be fixed I would be glad to hear it, if not it's still okay, cause then I don't have to work 4 hours for the next few playerhousingbuildings. And just to let you have a look at what I did I got a special picture for you with 3 ingame and 3 Noggit screens, I personally like the left ones from Noggit more.

This is intended behavior. The engine tries to speed up rendering. The only doodads allowed in map objects are server side game objects and doodads in the WMO itself.

• Either change engine behavior or
• let the WMO forget about clipping, resulting in terrain behind it getting rendered, even when not visible or
• spawn the models on the server or
• add the models to the WMO or
• don't spawn models in WMOs.

Okay, thanks.

I'll try it out, if I am able.

I think the easyerst way is in the moment to spawm them serverside.
