Increasing size of attachments?

[johannesr]

Is it possible to increase the size of the attachment weapons without any special tools? Cuz all of the axes i dled from the site are uber small. And it would be weird to see a large unit using a tiny axe.

have u tried changing the scaling value of the item in any way?

size of attachment follows by the scaling of the unit model, so the bigger your units are the bigger the attachment, and i dont think triggers can change that.

If i increase the size of the unit. Then how would that fix the small weapon problem? Its still a large unit wearing a small axe. And famouspker do u know any way to change the scaling value of the attachment?

If the modeler is around, you might want to ask him to increase the size. But modelers are always lazy/buzy persons so I doubt you get any help.

Those were exported models from warcraft 3 (like grunt axe etc.) I compared a normal grunt with the exported axe and the exported one was 2 times smaller. I dont get why exporting decreases the model in size?

find your unit in object editor;
find the field: art - required animation names - attachments
set thet to "large" (no quotes) or "medium" and test your map...

if that doesn't work find Oinkerwinkle's tools. don't worry. they're super easy to use (you'd also need "MDLX Converter" or "War3FileConverter").

As others have said. Usually when you add an attachment to a unit it will scale accordingly. Have you already tried to attach the model to the unit and it came out small?

Nope the art thing didnt work and to herio-san: i compared it with an unarmed beastmaster(with attachment beastmaster axe) and a normal beastmaster. And the attachment was smaller. And which tool do i need? (the tools are at oinkerwinkle.com right?)
