I'm terribly sorry if this is in the wrong place, but for some reason I cannot get the gmf compiler/decompiler to work... it does not usually even produce the readable gmf and when it does it can't be used... Please help! :(
-
Which Compiler are you using?
-
Sorry about not posting that... it's dumee's gmf compiler
-
What are you trying to decompile? Both compilers on the market have limitations... Dummy's can't do wheels, certain arenas, or powered steering units, and Serge's can't do lights.
Also make sure you decompile the file using a different name or put it in a different folder than the original.

TBH i think you're better off making a whole new motor if your changing the shape 'nd stuff.

Damage is set in the txt file, not the gmf. That explains why you can't change it.
If you want to change the shape, the Astroflight is probably one of the hardest motors you could have picked. Best way to work with it is to copy/paste all of the MESH_VERTEX into Excel and apply a transformation formula (for example, multiply everything by 2 to make it twice as big). Trying to change the shape by editing each vertex by hand is far more work than it's worth.
