Model fine when testing with png, creating saf doesn't work

Post by marx41 »

Alright, hopefully I can keep this simple. I downloaded the p2sta3 template and got to work. I want the model not to wear a neckbrace, but can only get it to do this before I .saf the file (testing by putting the png into the p2sta folder in personal folder). This is an example of that, where it works fine. This is naming the file "rider_body-p3noBrace-Seven Rival White Black" and putting it in the same folder with "rider_body-p3noBrace"

Now, I try to .saf the file. I've tried multiple things. I create my folder "Seven Rival White Black" and put my png in it. Names tried include "rider_body-p3noBrace-Seven Rival White Black" "rider_body-Seven Rival White Black", a few others. When I save it, create the .saf (included checking the "Strip selected folder from path" option" and then putting it into my personal folder, I get messed disconfigured models or the neckbrace still appearing.

Things I've tried:
  • Both including and not including the .jm from the p2sta folder in the folder with my png before .saf
  • .jm files from rider_body-p2sta3 and rider_body-p3noBrace
  • Renaming both the .jm and the rider_body filenames to match, not match, include p2sta filename, etc.
  • Putting the created .saf files into the p2sta folder in the personal folder and as its own file
I've spent too many hours trying to fix what someone could probably tell me is wrong in a matter of minutes, so any help is appreciated.

When I use rider_body-p2sta3.jm and rider_body-p2sta3-NAME OF GEAR and put them in a folder and .saf them, I get a neckbrace. When I use rider_body-p3noBrace.jm and rider_body-p3noBrace-NAME OF GEAR I got it to work, but is there a way to rename them without the "p3noBrace" part in the name. I've tried a couple things and can only get it to work properly leaving that part in the names.
