nope that means nothing....

u most likely:

didn't do the markers
didn't link the FP gun to frame
have the model moved too far back

one or more of those are the case....i suggest importing a gun similar and checking.....make sure the handle of the gun is on 0,0,0 in max (center of grid)

Select the gun and all the markers, (you might have to group them for a sec here), go into move mode, at the bottom are coords in greyed out boxes and next to them is a little button, hit that button and type 0 and hit enter in the x y and z boxes. (Then ungroup them if you had to group them)

that's illegal

and to stay on topic, just by typing in 0,0,0 won't make the handle go into the exact spot, it'll make the middle of the gun go through it...if when u get the gun ingame its facing a wrong way, just rotate it accordingly....uhhh i can't think of nething else right now, but PM me if u have any more ?'s or problems

ooo as for Degenerate triangles, they don't matter for the 3p or Fp views, only the collision-geometry. If your collision doesn't compile PM me and i'll send u a tut to fix it......and don't just make a box for collision like HMC said. Sure it works, but its not accurate and can cause problems with other things (like physics).
