How do you use a AddOn MSH?

[{TcF}Dr.Penguin]

Well the title pretty much says it all, how do you use a AddON MSH? Do you need XSI? The reason I ask is because I'd like a clone with a antenna like this one http://gametoast.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=20927 But don't know how to add it D: Please help!

[Sereja]

You just need to edit your unit odf:

Code Select Expand

AnimatedAddon = "WINGS"

GeometryAddon = "antenna"
AnimationAddon = "imp_inf_vader_cape"
AddonAttachJoint = "bone_ribcage"

Thanks!

 I can't find it though D: I looked in the rep_inf_sharpshooters' odf for
AnimatedAddon         =

GeometryAddon         =
AnimationAddon         =
AddonAttachJoint                =

To paste that stuff in but I can not find it.

I don't recognize any of those lines. I would add them into the ODF, but be sure that you don't break up any of the other lines.

Sorry for not understanding, but am I suppose to paste in my rep_inf_trooper ODF file?
AnimatedAddon         = "CAPE"

GeometryAddon         = "cis_inf_countdooku_cape"
AnimationAddon         = "cis_inf_dooku_cape"
AddonAttachJoint      = "bone_ribcage"

I would.

Sorry, I forget to say about that: you shold use lines:
AnimationAddon         =  "imp_inf_vader_cape"
for GCW, and
AnimationAddon         =  "cis_inf_dooku_cape"
for CW only.
Well, it may work's for CW too, if you past this lines in your Mission.lua:

Code Select Expand

ReadDataFile("SIDE\\imp.lvl",
"imp_inf_darthvader");
AnimatedAddon         = "CAPE" or "WINGS" line name is dosn't matter.

Yes, you should paste all those lines in your rep_inf_trooper ODF file.

Sorry for asking so many questions I think this will be my last, I paste this

AnimatedAddon         = "WINGS"

GeometryAddon         = "antenna"
AnimationAddon         = "imp_inf_vader_cape"
AddonAttachJoint      = "bone_ribcage"

in

Right under
OverrideTexture      = "rep_inf_ep3trooper1? Right?

Not sure, if it may have some matter, but if you look in to assets samples (vader or dooku odf), those lines will be in the bottom of the scroll, and ends the line script.

You can use whatever cape or cape animation you want as long as the right files are in your side folder. The era doesnt matter. And I have not tested with wings yet..

P.S. the only stock units with addon meshes are Vader and Dooku.

Yes, you surely may use vader cape lines for CW, if you put vader animations in to your munge folder, but it increase a size of your map, a little bit...
