Hello all!

I've got a problem with 2 cars 2009. The mirrors are inverted.I mean I need to flip them because I see the ground on the top of the mirrors and the sky at the bottom.Is there a way to fix this problem with Zmodeler or Gp4 Builder? If yes, can someone explain me the procedure? Thanks.

Regards.

Problem solved! Thanks again, mate!

Another question with the mirrors. Sometimes, I want to reduce the original shape (lod0) with polygon cruncher. The problem is that mirrors are half cut, even if I reduce the shape to a little percentage. Is there a way to reduce the shape and to keep the whole mirrors?

export them first, and after you got the lower lods re-import them I would say

Yes Fongu, but just for lods 1 to 4

Anyway, the procedure to keep the mirrors and reduce the lod0 works fine. Thanks guys!

When I invert V mapping, it puts the mirrors the right way up but there are the wrong way around. I inverted U mapping and it does nothing :( Any ideas?

Thanks,
Iain.

make sure you double click the object so that its the only one on the screen then invert the mapping as needed

Yes I know that, that's how I got the V inverted, it's the U that won't work.

I know what you mean, I had the same problem with the F109 from Vass. I had to make new mirrors.
