    Hello,
    So i've been trying to make "half doors" for the pickup (D-series). I've managed to copy the original doors for the pickup and then delete the jbeams and nodes on the top frame of the door. In-game the top of the door does not come into contact with anything, but the bottom half does, which I wanted it to do.

    BUT my problem is I can't get the appearance to change. I have .blend files saved with both doors as I would like them in the game, the picture below.

    Picture2.png

    When I go to the vehicle customization menu for the pickup truck, my "Half Doors" show up in the door category so I have got the folders in the correct place but I just can't seem to get the appearance to work properly.

    When I enable the half doors, it shows up with the full door.

    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    you need to post your file so we can have a look but my guess is you need to stick your model in the same folder as the jbeam

    here it works now but it overwrites the original doors, you likely have a wrong name in a slot in the jbeam

    Thank you very much! Is there any way to make it not overwrite the old doors?

    change the name in the model or jbeam, something is named pickup doors instead of pickup halfdoors

    I had a go at changing the file names by opening the .blend file and renaming them to "pickup_half_doors." using blender. When I put them back into the zip folder and load up the game, the normal doors are okay but the half doors appear as full doors again :/

    sorry I forgot to say that when I renamed the .blend files, I exported them back to .dae files.
