Hey guys, this has got to be the most annoying thing ever. I'm trying to change the mineral fields actor to something like a tree. I have done what I do for all of the other units but this one won't change. "Mineral Field" is not even listed in the model list. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The mineral field model is choosen by its actor.

It only uses the actual model data for it when on low. When on ultra, the actor choose a special high quality model for it. The actor governes its appearence as it degrades as more of it is used.

It has behaviours to tell which level of degredation it is.

If you want to change the mineral field model, you will have to alter its actor so as to support the model you are after (which includes probably removing a lot of the support which the new model does not offer). In there you will also find when and how it gets its actual model.
