Sorry, but I have had a few e-mails concerning the controls for the dropship. You have to look on the body tab for the controls that control the wings and landing gear. The wings are time controlled, so turning the dial to 100 will open the one wing, and turning it to 165 will open the other wing. It had to be done like this or they will pass through each other.

I downloaded the updated ship from vanishing point but somehow mind just doesnt seem to look like yours...

I have just downloaded it and installed it into Poser 4 and 5, and both times it worked just fine. Are you sure you don't have some parts set to invisible? If you open your hierarchy editor (poser 4) or check your invisibility tags (poser 5) you should be able to fix it. This is what the hierachy window will look like if you have invisibility on.

Thanks, for the information numanoid. The DropShip and the APC are fantastic and are perfectly scaled for one another.

P5, dont know what happened but i opened Poser up and inserted the drop ship and everything looks fine now :)

say...any chance you could make the firemissles do a ripple fire (one at a time one after the other) instead of all of them going together?

btw: great work, i love it.

I will be releasing an add-on pack for the whole Aliens project, and that will include individual missiles, the motion tracker, the wrist locator, crates, spare tyres for the APC, etc, so that you can have extra props to build scenes with. You would be able to take some of those spare missiles and make your own ripple fire with some clever parenting and making hte ones in the Dropship now invisible. But that pack will only be ready in about 6 weeks, have so many other things to finish. The Colonist complex is almost ready (just the exterior with the atmosphere processor, the buildings, storm walls, four vehicles, etc.). The interior will still take a while and I will do the Narcisus before I get to that.

Wow...thanks seems inadequate.
