Hey all,

Well I really don't know what I did wrong, this error just seems to have appeared over time and I can't open any scenario files because of it. I have spent a lot of time searching for the answer but I can't seem to find a straight forward definite answer to this error.

Here it is:

I don't think this has to do with the model not matching the collision model, but I'm not sure so I just posted that in there as well. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

i was trying to help someone with that exact error earlier on.
also i looked up a few other site that had posts of the same error, the only 1 i did find that had a desent reply reckoned i should go through all the tags in the scenario and readd them if it came to it. i reckon this was to eliminate maybe a corrupt tag or something. :o

now don't left that reply drown any hope man, there's got to be someone that knows more.

edit: yeah i would check all the tags for 1 that is corrupt.scorpions were ripped to go in this?

The animations and models don't have matching nodes and frames

12.13.11 22:05:10 the model 'characters\marine_armored\marine_armored' and the collision model 'characters\marine_armored\marine_armored' don't match (region counts don't match)

This means that your marine_armoured .gbxmodel tag and it's .model_collision_geometry do not have some matching stuff in their data. the gbxmodel tag contains the data for the actual model of your marine and the .model_collision_geometry tag contains the data for the gbxmodel to be collidable and contains the data for shield and body vitality etc.

to fix this problem, try opening up an original campaign map into your hek+, then in hek+ go to characters\marine_armored\. Click the gear-on-axle icon on the right panel beside "tag extraction queue" and this will open up settings. Click on plugins>tag extractor and click on the box "override existing tags" and then click ok. Then click and drag marine_armoured gbxmodel and model_collision_geometry tags and you should be fine. Turn off the override existing tags afterwards

I actually replaced those tags with the scorpion tags on this site, so I don't think it has anything to do with the scorpion. Thanks for the idea though.


Oh, so it did have something to do with the marines, I didn't change the gbxmodel for them or anything. I wonder how they got like that. Thanks.

But now I have a new error after fixing that:

It doesn't even give me a reason why it's wrong...
It says it has something to do with physics, but I have no clue how to find the tag that is creating the problem. Any ideas? Thanks again.
