ArmA 3 Custom Characters Head visible in freelook mode.

Its really strange that when you use freelook mode, you can see your custom character's head in this view if you look into sides. Default ArmA 3 bis characters do not show head in this view, nor other views.

It appears to be the ArmA 3 head (proxy?) model that shows up as its so detailed. From which LOD this comes is unknown, normally when you are in use of your character, you see View-Pilot LOD. However in my tests I removed old custom head and the HMD proxy, so where it gets the head model is unknown.

Object Builder Section Count Updates

Section count wont update until you go to another LOD and then back. Unless you cut and paste the object out then back in, that refreshes the section count instantly, but thats not always a wise thing to do if the model has two textures applied to welded geometry. Since cutting the part out will remove the connecting faces, so the move top/bottom thing is safer if a little slower.
