I was thinking the Beast Master for some cool effects, but I wasn't sure if it was going to crap up the animations for the new sprite. Can someone help me?

i don't understand what your question is.


a model is a totally seperate unit, set with it's own animations which the creator has made(or transfered).

all you must do is import it into your map (don't forget textures, read some tutorials on how to import it if you need) then it will show up as a selection for a model file when you create a new unit via the Object editor.

I'm hoping to use the Beast Master model to replace the undead unit guy and I was just curious if it was going to affect the sprite and such.

that doesnt make sense.

you don't have to replace anything.

you can use any unit to represent an imported model.


You can even use a base unit of a chicken it doesnt affect the model

if you replace beastmaster, its still a beastmaster. the model you imported will replace beastmaster, but your imported model will "NOT" have beastmaster's anims or models. your imported model will have its own models.

Just because you change the unit's model, all your doing is changing how it looks on the outside. It still has the same abilities, stats, etc. as it would otherwise, it just looks different .

if your wandering will model animations change, answer is yes.
Each model has its own animations, that can be changed in special tools (and with promition of author of custom model).
So changing a model will change its animation. So you cant replace (for example) a footmen with succubus and still keep footmen animations.
Is this what you asked. Your question is really badly put together.

From tread title name, you ask what model should replace this one. Well, you can use model that uses same animations, unless animations are custom made by creator of the custom model. That will make spell animations stay same and wont mess up (like when you order a unit to roars, and it bashes with his shield).

So, if that model uses beastmasters animations, then yes, beastmaster would be great to replace him.
