Title: Narmour Be Gone!!
Post by: JoeBlo on January 15, 2011, 12:59:15 AM
Narmour Be Gone!! is a fix for DSL 2.1 to remove the cheaty collision mesh from the Skirt Hinge component.

The following piece is still custom and as such you will need to specify its use in your tournaments ruleset. This is free use and encouraged, no extra permissions needed, use it in all your projects just please dont take credit for it..

The Black axle will no longer collide with anything, It had to be done that way due to instant AGOD with a collision that was the same size as the axle... its either Narmour or no collision..

Just extract the .rar file and you will be given a folder called "skirts" and place the folder in your components folder.. be sure to overwrite when prompt and it will replace your old skirt hinge

Update -

I just noticed the compiler flipped the colour codes so here is a corrected colour codes version..

At first when you said remove collision I thought you meant getting rid of the collision object entirely.  So the trick is to leave the object there but make the vertex 0.

Thanks a lot for the help.

yep.. it gives the same effect as no collision but the component seems to remain happy and havokless thinking one is still present  ;)

Edit: Just realized how confusing that pic is :P the white part does still collide.. you just cant see the red mesh in the "after" pic.

That collision mesh was so annoying.

*Cue evil laugh while applying it to Nar AI*
Anyway, well done, does this make it easier to place on a bot though?
