Droid Commando + Disguise Kit = Fail

Post by Sky_216 »

Well, I've got a slight predicament......

I gave a Droid Commando class for Dark Space a disguise kit (previously had stealth, but disguise kit gives variety + fits in with CW series droid commandos)....and it works, except for one problem - the droid still keeps its offsets from being a droid - resulting in a clone with a very stretched out neck and a hunched over pose. Apart from lookinbg ridiculous it means humans can easily spot Disguise Kit'd Droids.

Anyone know if theres a way around this?

Have you got more than one secondary weapon? Is the Droid Commando your skin or someone elses? Has it been used in a mod with Stealth/Disguise Kit before? Provide a bit more info please I may be able to help

No. Disguise kit just calls for the model of the first enemy infantry unit, but sticks with the original unit's animation. (Hence the "stretched" clone trooper look, because clone troopers were not designed to use the droid animations) If both units used the same animation, it would look perfectly fine.

Considering that droid commandos can move like a human to begin with, what I would recommend doing is giving the commando the normal trooper's anims. It may not look the most realistic, but it should still look better than it probably does now. I can't remember if the droids use a different skeleton, if they do I'll gladly envelope and get it exported for you.
