Units holding stuff in hands(like torches etc.)

[Shadow_Master]

Ok so i was watching a Cinematic map I downloaded from here, and On it, a Villager held a torch, then a dead body, then a fish?

Ok SO how do you do that, make it where they can hold stuff they normally cant?

cause I know villagers dont hold those stuff, so how can they on this,

Someone told me you can like make them hold doodads in their hand by putting hand left/ hand right

WHERE do I do this

it was arius's tale by the way i downloaded

can someone help me PLZ

Thx

It is kind a easy, u need a simple triger for this. All units jave things called "attachment points"(like head, overhead, origin, left/right hand)
You need to make triger like this:
Event: (anything)
Condition: (anything)
Action: Triger - Turn off this triger
Speacial efect - Create special efect on unit
Create a speacial effect
attached to the(your attachment
point) of (your unit) using
(model of your attachment
like:
Doodads\ LordaeronSummer\Props\
TorchHuman\ TorchHuman.mdl)

If you want to remove the effect you need to use:
Event: (anything)
Condition: (anything)
Action: Special effect - Destroy special effect
Destroy (your effect)
