Your object's parent ID should be the node's ID.

but I have a problem...

when I create a node then I add then "append new child chunk" and select "3D model type 1/101" the 3D object goes to root imediatly like it was "append new chunk".

Once the 3d object created the parent ID = N/A and I don't seem able to change it.

I'm using S3D v0.9.4

Since I could be trying this wrongly...is there a better way to add that 3D object under a node? Thanks

Not the 3D object himself is appended to a parent ID but it's node...

take the 3d object id number and ctrl-click in the model id blue number (control actually opens that window) then paste your model's id number and the model will move up to the node and be linked to it

Great!!!

many thanks Keltos and SquareSteelBar

now the process is clear, I wasn't moving the 3D object to the node. I assumed by adding a new child it shouldn't have done that automatically

It is now working

now is just matter to figure out how to make the dynamic shadows working

@Thyro,

One thing not commented on, your 3D node # must be lower than the node that it is linked to. Otherwise it will not work. Notice in Keltos' picute the 3D model is Node 1608 and the node it is linked to is Node 1612.

Guys, I'm sorry, I'm too busy and can't help...

@peabody

Thanks for the heads up

Does dynamic Shadows really work on SH4? I've also added a node+3D+control+DynamicShadow added a "black" material as shadow but no effects. (I have the main cfg with active shadows btw). Thanks
