Animated Unit Addons
Is there a way so your animated unit addon doesnt dissapear when your unit is flying with a jetpack or force hover ability, like a way to change the unit odf so it just wont dissapperate (am i spelling that right?[dis-ap-per-ate])into thin air?

Re: Animated Unit Addons
Okay, an animated unit addon, i guess you mean for example the wookiee dreads? If so, these NEVER dissapear from the unit; he is one with the unit.. Could you show us an ingame pic of what you mean?

Re: Animated Unit Addons
Attach an addon mesh like this:
AnimatedAddon = "NAMEITWHATEVERYOUWANT"
GeometryAddon = "msh_name"
AddonAttachJoint = "bone_name"
This addon will ALWAYS stay on the unit.. I don't see your point on flying or hovering.. An addon ALWAYS stays on the unit, since it's munged on the unit.. Hope this helps?

Re: Animated Unit Addons
But what im trying to say is for example, i attatch a pauldron (yes wazmols
) to a jet trooper, when i use my jet pack, the addon just dissappears but once i de-activate my just pack, the addon will reappear.

I can confirm that this happens, but I don't think there is a solution.Super_Clone wrote:But what im trying to say is for example, i attatch a pauldron (yes wazmols) to a jet trooper, when i use my jet pack, the addon just dissappears but once i de-activate my just pack, the addon will reappear.
Only thing you can do is import the model, put the pauldron on the unit, do the other stuff like enveloping, then re-export.
Or just live with it.

Yep, the addon geometry disappearing when jet jumping is a known issue and there is no known solution, just work-arounds.
