Changing the Model?

[Avex]

I noticed that Actor's are the definition of Model's in the new Galaxy Editor, but I made a unit from scratch and I can't seem to find where to edit the model/"Actor", can someone help? Trying to make my first map here.

Hey! This is taken from a previous post of mine, but it should work too (just ignore where it says copy or duplicated unit).

I was having the actors problem too.

I don't know if this is the proper way to go about it, but what I did was this:

1. Go to the Actors tab in the data editor and duplicate whatever model you want to use. (I used Baneling in the example). PICTURE

2. Assign the [copied/duplicated] actor to the [copied] unit. PIC. 1 / PIC. 2

3. Check the copied unit to see if the actor was propperly linked. PICTURE


Hope this helps!

When you create a unit, there's no actors attached. Go to the actors tab, duplicate an actor, tick everything, and then go to unitname, modify and add your custom unit onto it. Then go back to your unit, and there should be an actor

How do you exactly change the model? When you copy+paste an Actor and change its unitname to your custom unit, the line that contains the Unit Model hides, all that remain are the Portrait and some deaths models... The Actor part with Unit Model (Not Portrait) does not show if Actor is not selected Default UnitName there is no model ... Wtf
