Thanks everyone. Bejaymac, the LODRanges did the trick. And the 3db exporter is working much better for generating icons.
Seems to be fairly stable, although the ship seems very small……smaller than HardCMP would have lead me to believe.
Was having some strange artifacts with the transparent / opaque glass in the ship. The glass seemed to make some of the faces behind them transparent / opaque too. Probably just a result of my deficient modelling skills 😉
I’ll prob try my hand at modelling / adding something else a little bit more serious into FL soon.
