The ones that LEC give don't work with what I want. Simply a want a force feild activated by one swith and deactivated by another. also, When the forcefeild is up it should always be seen Translucent(sp?). if you could post the cog here or e-mail me at TerraKitten@hotmail.com. I thank you in advance for any help given.

This should do the trick...

It works, I tested it.

Hmmmm It doesn't work for me... when I hit the switch Jk crashes...

Works for me, its problably an installation error on your part. Try re-applying the cog.

Hmmm it is half working now.. But another problem.. when the forcefeild is off the surfaces still show as solid color, all surfaces are set right Geo 0 so why are they showing up?

The surfaces does not require any specific treatment, the cog sets evrything. simply select 2 fresh adjoins, and apply the cog to them.

GBK needs to add "It works, i tested it" to his sig

I might just do that...

Ahh I love you GBK, you save me alot of time writing out these cogs

no no, I didn't edit the surface. All i did was ad the cog to the surfaces. Then they messed up, I took the cog off the surfaces and they still stay solid in game, even tho they are flagged to be invisable

Ahh, change the surface material. That will fix it.

If your still having trouble with the cog, I send you my project dir...

Hmm I fit isn't any trouble could you send it? That way I can see what I messed up.

Hope this helps...

Click me.

I'm not sure what I did wrong before but it works now, I just put all the settings the same as you had and it worked, thanks for your help.

Glad I could help...
