How do you attach Count Dooku's cape to General Grievous? Sorry, I'm quite a n00b at ODF's, and Rekubot is no longer on the team.

You can't attach his cape from BF2 unless its already modelled in. You either can a) create a new model or b) attach Dooku's cape from BF1.

Why can't I take it from Battlefront 2?

It's because BF2 included a new system for capes and such that could only be attached because they were already included in the model (I think I read that). I'll create the ODF for you now that I'm on the team!

EDIT: Here's what it looked like when I attached Dookus cape to the magnaguard in my Agamar map (I've reskinned the cape)

Well I wrote a tutorial on the subject, here it is (again):

Well ok, it is pretty easy actually, just download the SWBF assets, copy and paste the .msh for count dooku's cape (from the SWBF assets of course) into the .msh of the side you want to have capes. Then copy and paste this at the bottom of rep_inf_ep3trooper's .odf (in the SWBF II assets)

AnimatedAddon = "CAPE"

GeometryAddon = "cis_inf_countdooku_cape"
AnimationAddon = "cis_inf_dooku_cape"
AddonAttachJoint = "bone_ribcage"

Do all the munging crap then your done.

Can you upload the MeSH-file, busterkinkade? I do not want to download the SWBF-assets, the size of it is kinda... Big.

It's like this without the cape as well.
