sca. no shadow call help

[Robert John]

Hi
The flight sim I develope for is cfs2 and the 3d design tool I am using is gmax. I have read information about removing shadow call from the .asm file but developing for cfs2 we do not use the .asm we only use the 0.asm
Can I add no shadow to the .sca file below.
Any help please, thankyou.

Hi,

This scasm code is defining the library object. I suspect the shadow call command is in the code that places this library object. I am not too familiar with cfs2, but is the placement done with scasm as well?

Hi arno,
I can make a api out of this object and have no shadow when placed with airportforwindows and tweek the placement bgl like the code below
by adding ZBias( 1 ) and ZBias( 0 )

ZBias( 1 )
CallLibObj( 0 xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx )
ZBias( 0 )
Return

I can add
RotateToAircraft( :xxxxxxx 0 0 0
0 0 1 0000 0000 0000 )
Return
and get a single object placed with the mission builder editor to have no shadow but when making an exploding object that has to be placed with the mission builder editor, because they are two models it just will not work.
I can make trees with EOD and make a library object with no shadows but cannot combine them to make an exploding object or add lods with EOD
yet.
many thanks.
Robert John
