FS17 modding help

[Jmoore5732]

I have recently starting modding farming simulator (Yes I know I started at the worst time) But I have converted a mod from FS15 to 17, The mod does have a one or two errors still but I am pretty sure they do not involve this problem. When I connect an attachment to it the attachment will connect but when i lift up the boom it will not move and just sit there on the ground while still being connected. But if I drive around It follows me?I have a screenshot if it helps.

Cheers, Jacob

What does the game log say?

Compare the attacherJoint in the XML from this tractor to a similar Giants version.

The game log has one warning but it about sound conversion, And I have compared the XML to a official giants simulator vehicle but still no luck,

No errors in the log is a good thing. Sometimes attacher’s can be done by external scripts and if that wasn’t updated it would generate an error in your log.

It’s a good chance it’s in the vehicle xml table under the attacher joint tag of that specific attribute. I would suggest some trial and error testing to determine what values will allow it to move.

Thanks for all the help everyone! I managed to get It going by adding ''<attacherJoint jointIndices="0" />'' to the moving parts catergory, Im not sure what it does but it seemed to work Thanks to everyone who assisted me!
