Elekk Model: Decay Bone

[Hawkwing]

I have finished my Elekk model but when I use the Decay Bone animation the trunk and horns don't go away. What is happening and how can I fix it?

This happens in:
- Wc3 Viewer
- World Editor
- Warcraft 3 TFT

I'm no animator myself...but i think people will need a little more information than that to help you. Possibly start by posting a wireframe of your model. Or better yet, post the file itself so other people can view it in 3DS max, Gmax, etc.

Attach the file here so I can examine what the issue is.

I have made it possible to download my Elekk model. It's a work in progress. But changing it from a Mammoth to and Elekk, on my opinion thats pretty good.

Its is a good model. Heres your problem...

Open up the MDL file innote pad. hit ctrl+F and type in "geosetanim", go through, there you should find some small list that have numbers on one side, an either a 0 or a 1 on the other side. copy the first one and the paste it below the others. Change the "geoset ID" number to the number of the geoset that horns and trunk are on. The number is usaly one numer lower than what it say in oinkerwinkles vertex modifier.

Okay, I looked in Notepad.. And to me that made no sense at all. You have to be more descriptive. It says geosetanim everywhere!

 

[Cavman]

Well, it should only say it once in the very beggining(first pic), and then again before every one(second pic).

Whenyou get to the list you shuld copy the first section (third pic). Go down to the botom of the list and select the } (4th pic). Paste over that(5th pic). Then change the geoset ID number to the id number of the geosset thats sticking up in decay.

NOTE: the 1's and 0's on the other sides of those big numbers represnt if the geoset in visilbe or not. The big numbers represent the frame number.

I tried it and It still dosen't work. If you can could you do it for me?

 

[Cavman]

There. It's all fixed up.
