I did some fooling around and it is possible to use any model (pretty much) for an addon to a unit (just like the magna guard cape). I think that this would be awesome if some XSI users imported some models, say the ARC trooper, iscelate the pauldron, kama and ammo packs, center them on a bone (so when its used as an addon it lines up right) and export it (and release it).
The same could be done with jetpacks, recon visors backpacks...

This would allow us to put a jet pack on a Bacara clone or a rebel, put commander gear on the EP3 trooper, and a whole lot of other stuff.

Its alot easier then makeing whole new unit models, and then can be used on any unit.

Making parts interchangeable is good idea, if you have a registered version of the 3D Object Converter and the free XSI Modtool 4.2 you can do this yourself and then send it to me in .xsi format and i'll export it to .msh for you, I may look into trying this also.

Say, could you possibly change the default texture that a unit uses by doing that? Like the default pack .tga that the arctrooper.msh uses, from blue to green, I mean without changing the texture itself.
I have tried using the xsi, but I can't make heads or tails of it, though I can't make heads or tails of the 3-D Converter either. Is there a tutorial or something on how to use the 3-d Converter and the XSI together?

so is it possible to add that part of the scout troopers helmet that is stcking out and add it to cody's helmet model?

Yah.

EDIT: How would I use object converter to get models into XSI?
