I'm not sure if this is in the right place, but is there a way to make smarzones invisible once they are attacted to a robot?

smartzones "base" makes them only visible in the bot lab, no matter the GMF the game will hide them in any arena

GMF editing them and setting the transparency to 100% would make them appear invisible but they would still exists there

I meant in the bot lab, sorry that I didn't make myself clear.

quite a simple thing to do with Mad\'s smartzone\'s

just de-compile the GMF file (use the text files for reference to which one you want invisible)

open it in notepad and find this part

Quote

*MATERIAL_REF_NO   0
      *MATERIAL_NAME   2 - Default
      *MATERIAL_CLASS   Standard
      *MATERIAL_AMBIENT   0x006CFF
      *MATERIAL_DIFFUSE   0x006CFF
      *MATERIAL_SPECULAR   0xE5E5E5
      *MATERIAL_SHINE   9.999999E-02
      *MATERIAL_SHINESTRENGTH   0
      *MATERIAL_TRANSPARENCY   
      *MATERIAL_WIRESIZE   1
      *MATERIAL_SHADING   Blinn
      *MATERIAL_XP_FALLOFF   0
      *MATERIAL_SELFILLUM   0
      *MATERIAL_FALLOFF   Other
      *MATERIAL_XP_TYPE   Other

and add the number 1 next to it like so

*MATERIAL_REF_NO   0
      *MATERIAL_NAME   2 - Default
      *MATERIAL_CLASS   Standard
      *MATERIAL_AMBIENT   0x006CFF
      *MATERIAL_DIFFUSE   0x006CFF
      *MATERIAL_SPECULAR   0xE5E5E5
      *MATERIAL_SHINE   9.999999E-02
      *MATERIAL_SHINESTRENGTH   0
      *MATERIAL_TRANSPARENCY   1
      *MATERIAL_WIRESIZE   1
      *MATERIAL_SHADING   Blinn
      *MATERIAL_XP_FALLOFF   0
      *MATERIAL_SELFILLUM   0
      *MATERIAL_FALLOFF   Other
      *MATERIAL_XP_TYPE   Other

then re-compile it

hope that helps :-D

you also could press f12 in game. But for that you need one of the patches i think.
