I want to change the size of the Demon Hunter missile, could anybody tell me what value I need to change in DemonHunterMissile.mdl?

Thanks.

from what i know of .mdl editing it is kind of impossible to change the actual size of something in the .mdl. What you would have to do is open it in a 3d editing program, resize it there, and then export in .mdl format. Then replace all of the geosets of the original .mdl with the modified ones. This should do what you want.

Hmm, I was hoping there would be a simple way like editing particle emitters (color, emitting rate, and such).
Is the only way to edit models still with 3dsmax?

you can do it w/gmax you just have to have the KMK importer/exporter. The art tools won't work in gmax

That's not true; Gmax can't export at all. You'll need to use 3dMax.

But yes, that's trivial - select all the points in the mesh, and use the resize tool (the box within a box). You can easily enlarge or shrink whatever parts you like.

I don't have 3dsmax and I don't warez stuff though, so it really isn't an option. :)

I guess I'll just have to settle with making a unit based on the model.

I haven't tested this, but you can try the attached MDX. I added this to the bone:
Code:
	Scaling 8 {
DontInterp,
		0: { 2, 2, 2 },
		83: { 2, 2, 2 },
		167: { 2, 2, 2 },
		250: { 2, 2, 2 },
		333: { 2, 2, 2 },
		417: { 2, 2, 2 },
		500: { 2, 2, 2 },
		667: { 2, 2, 2 },
	}

It worked, thank you very much. :D

I knew it could be done. :ggani:

EDIT: I rated it a five. :)

Wow! How'd you do that?

looks like he scaled the bone to double the size at the start of each animation.

Do you do that throuhg mdl editing or 3ds? if you can change model sizes using mdl editing, please write a tutorial! I've always wanted to know how to do that.
