How to make an invisible ped?

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I would like to make a ped completely invisible but keep the bones/collisions intact.

 

How can I do that? I already tried putting a transparent texture for the body but the game crashes whenever the ped is being spawned... (

 

Thank you for your help.

Get MagicTXD and retry. Simply replacing the body texture with a transparent 4x4 diffuse will give the wanted results.

It shouldn't crash the game. One thing to note is that you'll still have the shadow projected off the ped at the ground. You know that circular shadow projection. I'm not sure how to get rid of that. I'm also not into coding, so my advice is really slim

"shad_ped" inside particle.txd file :) Follow the same logic:

There's a coding method too for making invisible peds but as the OP wants the bones to be visible, that would require model editing since bones are only visible while in a 3D modeling software, not in-game. I have seen some modders using particle effects such as coronas to match bone conections.

Thank you for your replies guys! I probably misexplained myself Mysterdogg, I do not want the bones or collision to be visible, I just want them to keep being functional, because it is actually a ped that actually appear in a cutscene. But thank you for pointing me to the particle.txd file for the shadow!

I tried to put a transparent texture for the skin with Magic TXD but the skin is completely covered in green in-game... so what should I select to apply a proper transparency?

Compression doesn't matter. Can be DXT1 and you'll have a slightly lower file size. You should have no issues so I'm not sure why you're having trouble with it.
