Adding objects problem

Hi, I'm trying to add some objects to DCS by myself. I've tryed to add a pilot in EDM format and this one is working but once in DCS this one is half buried in the ground. How can I do to set it wit his feet on the ground?

Thanks in advance for help

hope you find out the solution and can do it for the russian pilot, too

Lua file two should work. be sure to add the paths to the shapes and texture folders. Textures should be a zip file, indicated as such in the lua #2

Add a entry lua.

The first lua file looks like you are adding a pilot aircraft! If the pilot model is facing like superman, You COULD make this work!

But I don't think that is your intention.....:D

One thing to remember, the object you use will be positioned in 3D space, based upon the collision file used.

Hope this helps.

With the second lua file the pilot appears in the nBFVG Harrier Pack objects menu and this one is fully textured without the need of copying texture. The only thing is that the object is very small in the menu selection. If I did an entry Lua this one will change? The pilot Im trying to use is the default flaming cliff f-15 pilot. I've tryed with the Razbam pilots (mirage 2000 and AV8B) and the problem is the same...
