I have an archer mesh with limit planes which is almost right. Everything looks correct in game, except for the bow's limit plane being visible!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]2314[/ATTACH]
The limit plane has the name LWR_SLWR_2. There is another smaller limit plane going through the bowman's left wrist called XJLWR_SLEL, just in front of the LWR_SLWR_2 limit plane, which passes through the closed left hand.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]2315[/ATTACH]
I also have no idea why the plane shows up as red, when the material specification is explicitly for black.
The diagnostics from building the mesh are:
[INDENT]no id mapping for joint bot
335 distinct vertices
TOTAL POLYS: 655, VERTS: 635
STRETCHY POLYS: 410, VERTS: 261
RIGID POLYS: 245, VERTS: 374
631 verts inserted (4 verts originally)
300 non-distinct verts
MeshUp Version 1.00 by Shadowspawn
AI Mesh binary file. Version 2[/INDENT]
Anyone have any ideas?

The plane should be called XJLWR_SLWR#2. It's also strange that he has a vertical plane next to his head.
The material colour shouldn't matter, nor should its name, but I'd have expected the name to be 'green' with a colour to match. How did you import that mesh? I.e. did you start with the .e file that already exists in mesh.crf?

I don't recall exactly when I got it. I think it is one of Shadowspawn's. I just started playing around with it.
I'll rename the limit plane and see if that fixes it. Thanks.
Edit: Yep. That fixed it. Thanks!

This is most likely a limit plane to separate vertices of the upper part of the bow from the head.

I'm also finding that the joint numbers for this guy don't correlate to the standard joint assignments for humanoids. When I have them mapped, I'll document them here.
EDIT: by empirical testing this mesh in DromEd:
Joints
0 = na
1 = na
2 = left ankle
3 = right ankle
4 = left knee
5 = right knee
6 = left hip
7 = right hip
8 = butt
9 = neck
10 = left shoulder
11 = right shoulder
12 = left elbow
13 = right elbow
14= left wrist
15 = right wrist
16 = na
17 = na
18 = abdomen
19 = na
20 = na
21 = na
I have no idea how the joint numbers get assigned. But this is what this archer mesh has. Odd that it doesn't have a head attachment point, but I didn't find one.
