scine like a miullion people want to know and i've never seen a tut of it before here it goes...

NOTE!!! this is assuming you knwo the basics of modeling using nicks tutorial, editing the mesh and importing it. it does not teach that just the cutting!!!

First off, you import the model you want to have edited, i this case the gondor soldier

Delete all unnessesary items (bones boundingbox, forged blades, or hide them if you please

Convert it into editable mesh, and select all the verticles for the sword

Right click on one of the verticles, and hit Detach

Then delete the sword, and hide the model, import the one with the weapon you want (in this case gimli)

delete or hide all unnessecary items

now in this model (some others do it but not all) the weapon is already separate, then its just a matter of moving it, and deleting the rest of the model

then unhide the older model, and just stick the axe in his hand, you do not need to attach it at all.


and there you go, you just put gimli's axe onto gondor soldier

pretty nice

you can find certain tutorials in this very section. Just browse around a bit

[Mathijs]

No you didn't come up with that. That's the Dwarven Banner Carrier from B4ME2.

[Gfor890]

yeh but i gave him a spear so he could be banner carrier of planxes.
so i changed the weapon which is the point of this thread isnt it

[Kwen]

yep it is, however, be sure to give credit to the makers if its bfme2 because it hasnt been relesed yet, and you have no right to proclaim it asyour own, but yes, good job at cutting the spear.
