Tough question. Ezbin and traced2 are not exactly main stream programs around here. What happens if you load the same bin in traxx?

When i load it in Traxx i dont see it either. I am going to try the same body i use and try something different.

How many vertices does the model have? If it's over 1024 (I think), then it wont show up in traxx. It will show up in the game, just not in traxx. But if it is over 1024 it's prolly gonna lag too. Edit it down if you can. Less lag, and you'll see it.

Try selecting all the faces in binedit and setting their types to normal. Seems worth a try.

Just for fun check the size of it to see if it real small. Also try centering it. It may be translated way to the side or something. If ya want, send it over & I'll see if I can find out whats wrong with it. It helps to se it sometimes.

If anybody else has been following this because they are having the same problem it was sorta what I had thought it was. Opposite really. The bin was extremely oversized, over 900 long. Too big to appear in the small sized areas in tracked & I would guess Traxx as well.

A good measuring gauge would be to open a stock truck & see what that trucks size is. Bigfoot is 18.3984375 long. Then base your truck on that so it fits in with the others.

BTW Nice work Xtreme_RTM

Thank for looking at it Jam-N-Jim. Every time i try to resize it to go flat on the height or the weight.
