I don't think they were positioned correctly in the hp

Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

Is the model scale set to 0.01 in MPE?

I've compared my positioning to those of a working ship with properly placed blinkers.  the only difference is the period and duration, which i needed to set correctly.

Wiley: yup.  took a bit to find it

You may have pointed the blinkers' texture property to the wrong path. I had a similar issue here

*quirk* odd, I USED the "blank" at first, and got no blinkers untill I used the Blink texture. then I got my floaters

EDIT: and, ONCE again, Kirk earns a cookie for pulling my chestnuts out of the fire.  blinkers are set.  they're a little off this time (i redid em all).  this needs to go into a howto.
