ice troll carry gold

I'm trying to set up a camp of Ice Trolls to act like a race (attacks, building up, expanding, etc.). I feel like I've perfected it, but one thing annoys me. The Ice Troll Workers do not have any animation to carry gold or lumber. So they just walk to the tree, the tree wiggles a while, then they walk back to the tent, or the enter a gold mine and go back to the tent. I want to add animation so they carry sacks of gold and lumber. I'm new to trying to edit like this so I don't know what to do.

you talk to the troll king about giving them picks, bags for their gold and rope for their lumber.

>:D Rofl!

You have to give him custom animations for harvesting, or go to the mdl editing section and see about "Merging Animations from a peasant onto an Ice Troll."

I'd say merging an ice troll onto a peasant would be the easier option... It's difficult to get it good either way, I suppose.

I don't know how much you know about model editing, but the basic idea could be
Merge on a gold bag geoset and lumber geoset.
Duplicate the animations (using the animation transfer program or something) and rename them for gold and lumber.
Add GeosetAnims for the gold and lumber geosets so they only show during those duplicated animations.
