I am having trouble with one of my units in my weapons/lua test map. The custom rocket launcher which I downloaded from some SWBF site is floating above his hand.
Is there any way I can get the gun repositioned (like in its ODF) without having to edit the gun and redo its hardpoints?
Thanks, It would help a lot considering I have no .msh or .vrml 2.0 editing software.

You may get some results by hex-editing, I think. There's a tutorial on using trans in msh files in the FAQ.

Re: Gun position issues, floats mysteriously
it has nothing to do with the odf, the rocketlauncher must have been placed not correctly in the msh. you should be able to fix that by hexediting either all the gunparts a bit down or the dummyroot up.
if you want to find out how to do it read this

Can you translate the dummyroot up? I thought it had to be centered at (0,0,0).
