Simple list of what I want to see if it can be done
  • Change the Attack Anime for Villager (Male 1) model to an archer and Caster Style attack
  • Attach Armor, Cape or Robe models to it

Ok Im creating a RPG Action style map. I am wanting to use the Villager (male 1) as a base model for Melee, Ranged and Casters and just use Attachments for Swords, Bows, and Staffs.

So I need to find out how to change its attack animation to something like the Archers Anime and the Archmage Attack 1 style

I also want the armor to change based on the armor he has, so I was wondering if the same trick with Swords work for an armor, robe or cape style model? For Ranged and Caster types I think I could just attach a cape or robe to the unit but I dont like the idea for Melee heros but then again if I knew a pick-poka-doted cloak or dress would help protect me from the Big Fire Breathing Dragon I need to kill Id wear it
I would assume the Cape and a robe could since they wouldnt need to be animated but unless the atachments can use the same animations as the base model I dont think armor that covers the sholders will work right.

So if these things can be done anyone know if there is already a Villager Model out there with these style attack Anime?


More info about my map and the hero types I have
Hidden information:

  • Name: Dragon Vally
  • Goal: To defend Dragner from the local Dragon Attacks (all players vote on survival Time limit)
  • Optional Goal(Very HARD): Find the Cause of the attacks and stop them for Good. (the Game time limit doesnt effect this other then the longer it is the better your chances but the harder the attacks get)
  • Discription: Simply put, at the start you pick a hero from the Shops. The Heros Name Stats and Abilitys are listed. And at any time you can Type -repick From there you run around killing creatures and gaining items.

There will only be about 5-6 different weapons or armor for each type (Melee/Ranged/Caster). But then each weapon will beable to be upgraded around 10 times each upgrade will require you to fine items to allow the upgrade.

There will also be Items Called Tower Morphs that you can put into Dragner Towers to Moprh them to there next level. The towers Will not be required to win but will have a big impact on the game.

Sorry i dont know how to make those cool status reports people have here

I wouldn't recommend capes or robes as attachments, because yes, they won't animate in time with the model.

Otherwise, www.oinkerwinkle.com and go nuts. Villager has a good solid compatible skeleton, I'm sure. Get caster animation from the priest.
