To make the transition from old geometries to the new ones easier, an *o2script* was created (bundled with Arma 3 Tools), which allows for a quick update of any character p3d files. ### Requirements - Arma 3 Tools installed ### Usage 1. Navigate to **Arma 3 Tools** instalation directory and then go to **ObjectBuilder\O2Scripts\CharacterFG** folder 2. Find following batch file to perform drag & drop operations - **addNewCharacterFG.bat** #### Using drag and drop variant Using drag & drop variant is quite easy. You can drag single files, multiple files or whole folders. > [!WARNING] > If you drag a folder onto the batch files, make sure only .p3d files are contained in that folder that you want to update. **Be careful to not overwrite the fire geometry of the wrong p3d files.** If **addNewCharacterFG.bio2s** script is missing in "**ObjectBuilder\O2Scripts**" folder, script will try to copy paste it to that location. Finally, batch file will run that new o2script and process the p3d: - Script will try to verify if there is already existing **Fire Geometry** - If fire geometry is missing, script will exit! - Otherwise, old **Fire Geometry** will be replaced by new, empty LOD - In next step, new Fire Geometry will be merged from **NewFireGeometryTemplate.p3d** - If everything succeed, file will be saved with all above modifications Source: [BI Community Wiki — Arma 3: Characters Firegeometry Update](https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3:_Characters_Firegeometry_Update) (revision 352174).
