would this be the right way to make a skeleton for a model if i wanted to import it to SWBFII

for ships and other rigidly animated models just use a chain of nulls. for units and other soft skin meshes just use the unit template file and delete the mesh and keep the skeleton and rig your model to it. if you click the link to psych0freds site on the left of this page and go to the downloads area youll find alot of model files that he put up as examples that you can download.

and these models work for BF2?

no you cant compile anything for SWBF2 until the mod tools and compilers are released...
i merely just gave him advice on what he should do to rig his models, NOTHING will work for SWBF2 until the compilers are out. >_>

so no bones at all?

for vehicles that have simple animations, no

how about for people?

>_< i just said go to psych0freds site to get the unit skeleton, its an emdl file that you import and just delete the mesh of the clone trooper and make your model over the skeleton. one thing that fred tells alot of people, learn the software really well first, then ask questions about modding.

drummer', the "unit skeleton" logo' talked of can be got here... (You should highly study it through the Softimage|XSI product you own to understand the structure of Star Wars Battlefront playable units...)

Thanks Leviathan, this'll help me have a better understanding for SWBFII, i couldn't find the link so thanks, i'll work on it.
