Ye, first of all the projectile shouldn't be a "SimpleObject" (which is what the dummy should be), it instead should be a "GenericProjectile", which you can set inside 3DsMax to stop it overwriting that kinda setting every time you export the object if you where to set it by hand in the code, by suffixing the name of each LOD with "__GenericProjectile", then the .con will create the object as a "GenericProjectile", but you will need to manually edit the .tweak file.



Edits in Red, also made some notes here and there and some things to check/redo are in Orange:

Any update on this project? Was this model of the rocket abandoned?
