Hi folks.

i really want to use this model in my map as an attachment to either the head or overhead, but it doesn't quite work for me. when attached to the head, it goes through it and when put overhead its normal, but it doesn't look good.

Model link

i checked the author's last date he was online and it was last year. i'm not sure if he/she will ever come back online, and i want this fixed for me if possible. not sure if its an infringement of some sort to ask of you to fix someone elses model for me, but i want to at least try.

p.s -- i want to attach this to the villager rpg hero model. Link Also if you ask me, the best solution from my point of view is to move the model up along the Z axis so it stands on the head, where now it looks like its going through it.

It is easy to edit the z offset of the model yourself

1) Download War3 model editor
2) Open the model and go to Window -> Model editor
3) Select the whole model by left clicking, use the drag box
4) Go to Transformations -> Translation
5) Edit the Z value. Enter some small value, 1-5 and click ok. To lower the model, use negative values.

Then save and import.
