MP50 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Hey there, I'm very, very new (by which I mean hours new ) to modding, but seem to have hit a bit of an issue already. Try as I might, I can't get a model to enter a car. Any car, just this one model will stubbornly refuse to get in it. If I click on the model, it comes up with the "Get in vehicle" command, but it's greyed out, and hovering over a vehicle doesn't offer the Enter command. I'm probably missing something really simple, and just being stupid, but like I say, I'm new to this - please don't bite Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottyscotty Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 In the editor got to the vehicle, click edit then edit traits. Under 'Passengers' make sure there is at least one allowed (This is how many people can get into the vehicle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killyboy98 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Also in the same place make sure you click usable up top of the selection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bma Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Also in the same place make sure you click usable up top of the selectionUseable is not nessasary. Useable tells if an engineer is able to use the "use" command on the vehicle or not The important thing is to make sure the vehicle allows passengers and that the passengers meets the requirements for entering the cars. Ex people need the extinguish command to enter fire trucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogdanM Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Unless I'm reading it wrong I think he is talking about a human custom model, not a vehicle model. So his issue is that the new pedestrian doesn't enter any vehicle and not a new car mod that doesn't allow passengers. I apologize if I'm the one who's mistaken.

Certain cars only allow people to enter if they have certain scripts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the problem is with the passengers not meeting the requirements. Certain cars only allow people to enter if they have certain scriptsBoth the car and person prototypes are done by me, can you elaborate as to what could be the issue? In the editor got to the vehicle, click edit then edit traits. Under 'Passengers' make sure there is at least one allowed (This is how many people can get into the vehicle) Others can get into the vehicle, but this one ped can't get into any sort of vehicle.

Like a Police Officer can't get in a Fire Engine etc. To decide what a person is (Police officer, firefighter etc) go to their trait menu and change the person type to 'Squad'. Then you can choose which role they are above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have Steam you can add it as a 'Non-Steam Game' and do the same thing. Alternately download a program like Bandicam or Fraps that records and takes screenshots.

Neither the Steam overlay nor Steam screenshots appear to work in EM4 or the editor for me. I'll try Fraps, one moment! EDIT: Ugh. Fraps doesn't work in Windows 10. Bandicam...

No problem, can't actually see anything wrong with the settings however something did catch my eye - The prototype doesn't actually have a name? I'm going to guess you 'cloned' one of the other Police officers but when you do that you have to enter a new name for the file (The title you give it in the editor is for your benefit only, it doesn't affect the actual file). I don't know if this is it but it's worth a try I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nbrown8568 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Don't know if your still having the problem, but you have given this character a few too many commands. 11 commands max, I don't know if this is affecting it though.
