Attachment Model Files - Hood, Trident, Gun, Crossbow, Greaves, Gauntlets (SOME)

[Aoen]

Here are a couple of files I need for my Test of Athena Open RPG (The website is completely out of date, and most of the heros are now obsolete, but here it is : www.freewebs.com/a0en), I believe these files are not exactly custom requests, so they will be useful to the entire map-making community .

Hood - Jaina's hood, or any other hood you can find Jaina's model file at this location : "units\human\Jaina\Jaina"

Trident - I'm not particular to what this looks like, but I want it to be somewhat long and have 3 prongs, here is an example of a unit wielding a trident in warcraft : "units\naga\NagaMyrmidon\NagaMyrmidon.mdl"

Gun - The Rifleman's gun, the Rifleman's model file can be found here : "units\human\Rifleman\Rifleman.mdl"

Crossbow - An example of a unit that uses a crossbow : "units\creeps\GnollArcher\GnollArcher"
Once again I am not particular to what the model file looks like. There is actually currently a crossbow attachment available, but it looks very strange when attached, and seems to levitate quite a distance away from the attached unit.

Boots - I've heard that these were impossible to create, but if they're possible I would like a pair of plated greaves. Here is the link for what the greaves should look like : http://www.goblinworkshop.com/pics/icons/INV_Boots_Plate_06.jpg

Gauntlets - Apparently these are impossible to make as well, but again if they are somehow possible to make I would like some gauntlets (I'm not particular to their appearance) and if possible I would like them to be tinted slightly blue.

I know it would be extremely difficult to make all of these attachments, but I do not need all of them, if even one of these attachments could be completed then that would be great.

Thanks in advance for any efforts .

Before I even start, Gauntlets are not impossible to make, you would need to attach one to each hand, and it would not look "good" as it would not be snapped on the model, and such. Boots I do not believe can be attached separately, as if I recall on most models the only attachment point is between the legs. (Again you could get a model, but it wouldn't snap on the feet, or raise when the unit walked)

Secondly, For a crossbow, the unit would not look "proper" using it, as the animations would be off.

Possible "Tridents"

I know of where you can download a whole pack of rifles, if you want the URL PM me and I will give it to you.

Heres a crossbow

As for the hood, I don't think I've ever seen one, as it would clash with almost all the models you put it on, and it would not look nice being a solid hood, as it would not move.

Thats all I could really find, sorry If I wasn't any help

The crossbow you found is the glitchy one I was talking about, attach it to a unit to see what I mean.

Yes that's what I meant by impossible to make (for the gauntlets and the greaves), it would look very silly having a pair of boots floating underneath u as you walked, and a similar situation occurs for the gloves.

I don't think hood would be that difficult to make (though I don't make model files), I've seen jaina's cloak, so maybe cut off the cloak part, and make it a chest attachment, or again I don't know exactly how this works, but maybe you could just make it a head attachment.

The tridents would have been a help, but again I saw them before, if you read the comments sections in almost all of them (other than sauron's mace and the ones that aren't really 3 pronged tridents XD), people couldn't get them to work (it's probably not a coincidence that the creator of all of the "Actual Trident's" was the same XD).

And there's a whole new set of weapon attachments that came out, but none of them work for me, (your link with the two pointed trident).

Mabye you can help me after all if you could give me the site with all of the riffles, do I have to PM you or can you just post it with all of your other links XD?

Anyways thanks for the at least attempted help, I can see that you actually took some time to dig me up those model files.

Lastly for a comment with the crossbow looking weird on a unit when it attacks, I do not care if it looks strange, because I have many other attachments such as a long bow that can be attached to "chest" to make it look like its strapped onto the user, but don't worry if you find me a working crossbow model file, I'll manage to attach it somewhere.

I would post the URL to the rifles, but I respect the hive's rules and policies, I'll send you a PM with the rifles, and on the site, it has ALOT of attachments. I don't know about the trident's I think you possibly just could have imported them wrong?

The problem with the cape is, a "SFX" or attachment can not be animated if I recall (I could be wrong) it just stays still, and such, A cape would on most models fall through the back, or stick to far out, and it would look quite bad, however, there are some 'cape' models that I have seen, that work quite well.
