Balverine hero mod ATTEMPT

[Marcopolo]

yeah lol

i'm having a bit of trouble, i remade the whole creature entry because the original couldn't recognize right chick run but no i have to deal with the other problems that have risen up from using the hero as a base...

[Pilgrim]

Sorry for lateness but, to paraphrase the villagers, reppage is obviously due. Good work .

[Marcopolo]

why thank you

has anyone here ever really dealt with changing the models that creatures use?
i seem to be having some serious crashage with chaning the hero's model to the balverine and i'd rather not have to make it clothing

[Pilgrim]

Not creatures, but I have meddled with weapons. Have you tried changing all the entries under the materials tab to the ones in the original model. You probably already know this but it's all I got, sorry.

[Dark Drakan]

Didnt see this before, very nice work so far im impressed and +rep for the idea!

[Marcopolo]

thanks

yeah weapons are really easy, never very picky

so what i mean is i am openeing the CREATURE_HERO and going to what id it refs for the mesh and changing that to the one i want, not changing the graphics entry. but for some reason it always crashes...

[Pilgrim]

Ah, then I have no idea. Swapping Meshs that way always worked for me in the past, but I've only ever tried other humans. Tried removing bone configs?

[Marcopolo]

lol that would stop the hero from moving probably or worse

i will check it uot though

it just seems that the creature entry has something in it somewhere that says "dont use any model other than the hero's" and i havent found it yet

No way, I've already swapped meshes, in the the amanda topic there's a pick of me as Jack (note the sunbeams)

[Marcopolo]

yeah but didnt you swap them in the actual mesh entry not the creature?

In the creature entry.
I just changed the mesh ID under graphic, which is what you're doing, right?
There are threads on the matter here, and bone config info is here.
Try with a hero mesh first which we know works.

[Marcopolo]

hrm well then, maybe it is some random error in the new fe or i broke my game.bin

haha! fixed, turned out i had inadvertently corrupted my hero entry so it would not accept anything else

i just restored backups changed it made an fmp then brought back the files i was working with before and overwrote the hero entry

[Pilgrim]

Yay, good luck hope to see this completed soon.

hey guys im only a noob but this all sounds hell to me . i reckon it'll be awesome when this all gets finished + rep to all those attempting this

[Orpheus Lupus]

Hmm...Wow. Nice job. Interesting subject, as well. Now that I think about it it seems sort of obvious that the hero should be able to become a Balvarine XD
