Greetings to all,

I have an issue with an item I have purchased today and before contacting the author I'd like the community opinion, because maybe it's just plain ignorance on my side.

The item is "An Armor Clad Warrior" by sugatak, and it is for M4. The armor is composed of several pieces: some of them are figures (cr2) and some are props (pp2). To load the armor, you must load each piece in a precise order, set its parent to another previously loaded piece or to M4 himself (not conforming them), then repeat for each piece. Not immediate but the readme is clear enough.

My issue is the following: when I load some props, they appear in the correct position (i.e. sandals are loaded around M4 feet) BUT when I perform the "change object parent" command to parent them to the foot, they suddenly move away on their own. And they have no translation dials so I am unable to pull them back manually where they belong. M4 is zeroed and I have not moved him at all.

Is there something I can do to use them correctly? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Giorgio
