Mount system, Attachment Problem

[Vunjo]

Hello. I am making mount system for my RPG. I know all the triggers about that, but I am having problems with Attachments. My "Rider" is too big for dragon. I did it with special effects, and I also tried to do it with attachments. So here is the picture how it looks like:

Any ideas how should I fix that? It's funny I know how to do all needed triggers, but I can't solve this easy problem ^^
Also, try to help me with as much as possible lagg. I allready got problems with crashing =).

+REP OFC ^^

If the Dragon's scaling value is 2, the spellbreaker's scaling is 2 too. So that's why it's so big.

You have to keep scaling value of dragon in 1 if you want to keep the original size of the rider

If you wanna bigger dragon, you have to edit it in the model editor

Creating test map . . .

EDIT:
Yeah, Kala's word is true
If the unit's scaling value increases with size, so as the SFX (Spell Breaker) will increase in size
If you want a bigger dragon, use Custom Model for that
It will make the dragon bigger but retain the size of the Spell Breaker

Scale down the Spell Breaker with Magos Model Editor (in the tools section), or scale up the Dragon model.

Still, that's considered as Custom Model =D

So...?

 

[defskull]

So...
The real solution to the problem is creating a new Custom Model, not edit in Object Editor or so
Don't be harsh man =.=''

I don't know what you're talking about...

So that means you won't create test map? xD
I should just open model editor and increase the size of every mount I want am I right?
But, I don't have experience with modeling, will try to do that. What model editor is the easiest to learn and to change size? Also I am worried about the size of the map with at least 4 new models...
Thanks.

use magos model editor very good tool for what you need to do.

If you're editing a default model in Warcraft III with only changes to SIZE, it doesn't really effect the size of the model dude
Here is it: Magos World Editor

Ok thanks. 1 more qustion:
I used attachment to Chest, and I saw on other site that there is Mount. Should I change it? Is there any difference?

 

[defskull]

Chest is currently I see the most fit for the attachment
Mount is used for certain ability
Like Spike Carapace, go under "Buffs/Effects" tab and search Spike Carapace
You can see it uses "chest,mount,right" and "chest,mount,left"
This is to show the effect of the spikes/thorn coming out from its core (chest/mount)
Usually use for quad-leg unit
So, use "chest" as the most fitting attachment

Ok thanks, but where should I get the model ^^
Sorry but I am total n00b in modeling xD
And I didn't see anything similar to change size lol

 

[defskull]

To be honest, I never did into modelling
Good Luck my friend ! ;D

 

[Vunjo]

LoL thanks ^^

EDIT: Got a bug. I made the model bigger. In programe it looks ok, but in game, lower part of mouth got higher than the eyes xD. It is hard to describe, but please help me. Is there any other way to fix it?

Pic?

Solved that one. For some reason it worked when I tried again to make it bigger. Thanks guys. I think that I just needed to restart Warcraft 3 Model Editor ^^
