much FlameGuard. now i need to delete the spear and replace it with a sword. the sword i want to use is the

one the peasents get when they get drafted. (it looks the most Rohan). so how do i do this?? remember i no

very little about modeling. THX!

[Kwen]

Remember there was a tutorialwritten on this very thing, by me.

Tutorial

[lotrfreak]

alright i was trying to do it myself and i think i did. the model is there and the sword is in it's hand. so wat do i do next??

[Kwen]

you bind the new model to the skeleton, if your new i suggest autobind, its poor quality but easy.

check binding tutorials on the site for more information.

[lotrfreak]

cant u just tell me how??

[Kwen]

its very hard to tellone how to bind something... because without showing someone what buttons to push its like having a blind dude play hide n' seek

Laziness is a modder's nemesis, especially to someone still learning.

[lotrfreak]

[lotrfreak]

i dont get it?? where do i get skin and how to put it there???

[lotrfreak]

ok so i have my model with sword, but i have no idea wat the tutorial

wants me to do. i just want the same skin as before but now with a

sword and gondor fighter animation

[GothmogtheOrc]

First off, the edit button is your friend, please use it instead of double posting

To answer your question: you need to apply the skin to the model and then you'll probably have to remap it with the UVW Mapping. Then, if you want it to use the gondor fighter animations you'll have to make sure that the model is binded to the gondor fighter skeleton and correctly referenced in the code.

The tutorials cover all these steps...

what do you mean you dont get it? what part are you confused about?

[lotrfreak]

i dont get wat i am supposed to do.

[halbarad]

well thats not really helpful, heres a dummys guide:

-make sure you have done everything you want to do and have the skeleton and model in the right place
-make the wwskin object: create tab->space warps->wwskin->place anywhere
-addd all the bones to the wwskin
-use the bind to spacewarp tool (squiggly lines with a square) to attach the model to the wwskin
-rig up the verticies: select model->click modify tab->click the + next to wwskin binding->click verticies->select all the verticies->click auto link

-export the model with the correct settings and check the animation looks right, if not you may have to touch up some bits by selecting the inidvidual verticies and linking them to the correct bone.
