Hello, i would just like to inquire about placing spiked barricades on some custom model buildings as the creater did not place any on, so would you please place spiked barricades attachments on, Dragoon's "Goblin Townhall" on this websites resources and hive workshop, Dragoon's "Goblin Research Centre" on Hive workshop and the "Goblin Altar" on this website and Hive workshop, and also if you could find enough time, could anybody please make the Goblin research centre (Goblin barracks with a furnace and anvil outside) have a custom team colour roof?, thankyou.

It would help if you posted those models that you required help with, or at least gave links to.

you can't just modify a model like that without the author's permission. Does he state that you can change it?

it seems like you have to add the spike animations via trigger.
but thats verry simple.

-you need a trigger which is fired when the upgrade is done. the trigger should a: set a booleran like "spike_up_done" = true and b: picks every building which should get spikes, give them custom numbers and add a special effeckt with the same custom number in its variable (var= "spike_effect[custom_number]") to it.

-then you need a trigger which do the same thing to new builded structures if the booleran is set =true.

-and a trigger which is fired when a building of this type dies and which destroys the special effeckt with the same number like the unit
(destroy "spike_effect[custom_number of trigging unit]")

if you dont have the abilitie to use variables you have to learn it otherwise you are lost.
there is an example map from blizzard inwhich varriables are instructed. but i have forgotten the name of it... (something with obelisks and creep races you have to defeat..)

to be correct: you dont have the premission
so there are two options:
you do it without, but i guess then no one will help you,
or you work around it and add the spikes via trigger or whatever.

and to be serious: it is easyer to make some triggers then pm'ing and messagin hundreds of people to get the premission for a unnecessary mdl modification.
