invisible animal
« on: June 28, 2006, 01:27:22 PM »
i have made a red-fronted brown lemur, and it all works perfectley in game, the zoopedia works, the 3d image works, everything except it is completley invisible, i bought two female animals and they were both invisible. the game registered them as being there as it said 'blah blah lemur 1 is not contained...' but i could not see them.
i did not try to buy any males as i didn't think there would be any point as the female did not work, but now i think about it i probably should have checked.

plaese help!

When you say "the 3D image works" Do you mean that in Guest Mode you can SEE the animal? Or do you mean the icon works? Because those are two different issues.

the icon and that little 3d image that appears in the box when you click on an animal, you know that box that tells you the biome and origin, price etc.

Hello there,

First off, is this an animal you are making or one you have downloaded? I think it is one you have downloaded, so in that case, what was the download and what expansions do you have? The more info you give the better we can help you :happy:

Oh ok, then I'll move it ;).

The problem is likely in the bfm file. Can you carefully explain how you edited it?

ok, well that is the problem :)

You need to replace the codename on TWO LINES ONLY. Those lines are the first line and the line beginning with
