Well, the title is almost self explanatory. I would like to know how to scale objects. I know it involves msh.options but I'm not sure what to do and how. I want to scale down a chaingun.

Could someone show me an example of a msh.option used to scale things down, or how to set one up?

Thanks!

edit: Also, how would I give a chaingun rifle anims for shooting? I changed my rifle msh to the chaingun msh, that didn't change the shooting anim, and when I gave the chaingun a rifle anim, it also didnt change. How would I change the anims correctly?

rep_weap_inf_chaingun.msh.option
= Half the original size
= original size
= Twice the original size

Be careful, cuz scaling with msh.option can be buggy.

If you scale up a building, the building itself will increase but the original collision locations will remain unscaled.

Plus it will sometimes flicker and disappear at different angles, especially if it is animated.

Sure, but scaling a chaingun probably won't be too bad. I scale a lot of the weapons that I use with the msh.option file.

To change the animation of the chaingun to that of the rifle, you should just have to add this line to your chaingun's odf:
AnimationBank = "rifle"

Ok, thanks! But do you call it msh.option at the end, or just .msh and have it be an option file?

to edit the scale of xxx.msh (as example) make a new whateverfile and save it as xxx.msh.option and write the parameter in it
