FBX model sitting above entity origin

[Ryan]

The Following link shows what I’m dealing with. I’m trying to create a simple dice rolling game, but I have little experience in making 3d models so I decided to download one. The issue is the model sits above the origin point of the entity, so when I try adding a collision to it it sits below the model. I’ve been looking for a fix, but haven’t been able to find one that doesn’t involve altering the model itself in an editor outside of PlayCanvas, is there a way I can avoid doing this?

Ty for the fix its definitely better but still slightly above. The origin needs to be dead center on the model. I know I’m sound picky here, but the physics won’t work properly otherwise. Also that’s were I got the model from.

Hi,

If you make a rigidbody and have the model as a separate child node of the rigidbody, then changing the position of the model child node will alter the origin point of the entity.

First create a empty entity ,add rigid and collision component on it .Then put your dice as its child ,move dice to the center of empty entity .

Don’t know why I didn’t think of that. Thanks!
