Hi, I'm trying to make a simple mod, I started by making a new skin for the us rangers, it looks ok but I don't like the way the rangers carry there weapon, I would like to make them carry it like the Gla Rebels :/

I'm also looking for a simple tutorial about adding new units.. for example I would like to use the blackhawk model from another mod but I don't know what to copy/paste in the .ini files and all.. :tard: And I know it's not good to copy stuff from other mods but I ll probably be the only one using the mod im making, it's not like I'm gonna release it on internet

ok, i am not totally sure about the animation, but for the code, just im me on aol, sn is jmb8785, i always have it on so... umm ill be available all weekend, and done by 4 on friday, so just message me whenever, I also have some models and stuff u can use, as long as its for personal use, and if u ever release your mod just have my name in there.

For the aniamtions you need to replace the _STA and _RNA animations for the ranger.TO do this you need gmax and the renx gamepacks.Animating a running human is quite difficult to make look good.

thanks keyop, and yeah i can see how animating a person is hard. is there a way to copy over another units animation.

thx for the help

Maybe it would be better if I just use the Gla Rebel model/anim and change the skin to make it look like a modern us soldier.

Well, I guess you could try exporting the model(_SKN) of one with the skeleton(_SKL) of another.You would need to WWSkin the model to the skeleton in Gmax and then export it.Then jsut use your modified skellymodel for the condition states for running and standing.

Check out Oldfaq's infantry tutorial at GenDev. That covers that idea. It's in the graphics section.
