Hi guys,

I edited a custom lot called "Hockey field" (campo da hockey). I put some people props in the side and other in the center of the field. When I put it in the game I can see only the people in the side but not the people in the center. Can someone help me? I attach the files.

Thanks

Hi, note the height of your model, 4.282m. Because of the model's LOD, anything within that box less than that height will not be visible. The fact you can see the people on the rink in the LE/PIMX previewer is mainly only a quirk of how those programs render the preview image.

    So do the props have to be put higher than the max height of the model even if its height is lower in the center?

    Yes. If it's your model, you can also define a custom LOD. Instead of a box, it could be just a plane with minimal height, for example, which should allow for the props appear.
