how do I resize a unit? I want to make a super battle droid bigger, and i have not the faintest idea as to where i should begin.

I don't know for units, but for props and the AT-AT there is a GeometryScale line. Just enter whatever number you want and that will be how much bigger they get. I haven't tried it, but Majin did. Check his Thule WIP thread.

if u want to rescale a unit like the sbdroid go to the unts odf (cis_inf_super_battledroid.odf) and add
GeometryScale = "1.5" under the GeometryName and "-scale 1.5" in cis_inf_sbdroid.msh.option

thanks a lot!

I can`t get rep lander to resize!!
here`s the ODF file
[GameObjectClass]

ClassLabel = "prop"
GeometryName = "rep_lander.msh"
GeometryScale = 2.0

[Properties]


GeometryName = "rep_lander"


LowResModel = "rep_lander_lowrez"

this works for zeroeditorbut not the game
here`s a rep_lander.mshoption file I made
-nocollision -Scale 2.0
and another try rep_lander.msh.option
-nocollision -Scale 2.0
still no joy.what am I doing wrong?

I was told by Psych0Fred some time back (when I tried to resize a working ATAT) that you can resize an ATAT as a prop, but that he never tried to do it with an actual working vehicle. He suggested some things that might possibly work, but the problem was that resizing an actual working unit also involves it's animation. In other words, you can't simply resize the odf and expect the animation to follow -- the animation has to be resized too, and that means editing the animation files. I was never able to do it myself.

This is what I remember, anyway. Fred can correct me if I'm mistaken.


Rip

you JUST gave me an idea

hmm...

if you can find all the .msh files for the ATAT, and ALSO the .msh files that contains the animation files

open them with Bconstructor

try to scale ALL the objects in there

but there might be a problem, because when you scale down, it doesnt become smaller in the middle of the object, only where the center is - and that's not always in the middle

but try to scale all the objects in the different .msh files

I think that would work

here is the animation files for the ATAT:
BFBuilder\Assets\Shipped Common Animations\imp_walk_atat

now: that's all the different animations the ATAT has

this is the files you should scale down in Bconstructor

scale ALL the objects down in each .msh file

then copy all the .msh files you've modified into the new folder - maybe called: imp_walk_atat_scaled

then ALSO copy the MS-DOS-batchfile - which is the program called: Munge - into the new folder. run it from there, and it should create zaabin and zafbin files under Munge - these files are required for animations

that should be it

it should work in the theory - I think... lol - j/k

and btw, all the .msh files should be munged in your Map Folder - so its saved under Animations and also under Munged

try it out, and tell me if it worked
