Need help scaling Dark Trooper

[jdee-barc]

I tried scaling the animations, and model (via the option file) (scaled everything by 2.0) and this Darktrooper turned out monstrous (what I wanted) but there's a problem with it.
[spoiler][/spoiler]

The legs are stuck half way in the ground,  unlike the unchanged guy next to him.

How do I fix this, if its possible?

Maybe editing the odf to fit with the scaled options? ( sleepkiller probably knows how )

I hope I wasnt the only one who laughed (out of pure "Oh my gosh that looks hilarous!" and not "omg fail"), becuase that would definetely example my age

I'm munging it. I got some advice not to scale anything beyond 1.3 so the Darktrooper will be a bit smaller but still gigantic compared to everyone else

[Kit Fisto]

Kinda like SK's Dark Trooper?
EDIT: So I wasn't wrong!?!?!?!

Presuming you have scaled up the skeleton with animation munge you need to add these lines as well.

Code Select Expand

SkeletonRootScale = "1.25"
CollisionRootScale = "1.25"

Thanks! I fixed it.

If you don't mind me asking, how do you edit .option files? I've been curious what they do and how you can edit or change them.

You can link me to a tutorial if you want.

Sorry if this is off topic, you can move it to another forum if you want.

EDIT: Oh btw, is .option modding OC?

msh.option files can be edited with text editor.
They usaly need for: adding bumpmap, edit size, disable/limited collision, adding shadow.

Thank you, Sereja. 

Is there a tutourial on it somewhere?

I don't think so, I capture my knowlege by Assets exploring...
But here the micro tutorial for this:
1. change size (twise in this sample):

Code Select Expand

-scale 2.0
2. disable collision:

Code Select Expand

-nocollision
3. disable collision for munge process (totaly decreased time of munge):

Code Select Expand

-donotmergecollision
4. bump texture

Code Select Expand

-bump some_texture
5. add shadow (works not for everything)

Code Select Expand

-hiresshadow
6. disable model for game 3th view (used for 1st person models)

Code Select Expand

-nogamemodel
Also, it may be useful, for turets/vehicles:
7. keep moving parts:

Code Select Expand

-keep aimer_y aimer_x hp_pilot hp_fire
8. scale size, of infantry spawn area:

Code Select Expand

-boundingboxscale 1.0
Probably, you may found many other msh.option files, but I am not sure, wat exactly, they can do...

How did you scale the animations?
