It's still not working. I did exactly what you said, in terms of the
hierarchy tab and hitting reset.
The temporary workaround I'm using is:
on exitFrame me
global doorflag
global garage
garage = member("3dworld").model("doors")
if doorflag = false then
if (garage<>void) then
garage.transform.rotate(-90,0,0)
doorflag = true
member("output").text = "doors rotated!"
else
member("output").text = "not doors"
end if
end if
This works but its very ugly, and I don't want to have to do it with several
models. I had to do it on an exitframe handler, because when I try to do it
on the initialize frame (set up), if the doors are not completely loaded I
get an error when I try to turn them.
Any more details about how you got it to work in MAX will be greatly
appreciated!!! Are you using Max 5?
