there is a command prompt way, but you can just scale a model in MAX

Ok...I have not got max yet....but I get it soon...

what is the other way.

Can I size the unit with text files. I would find that easier to me.

????????

Yes, look at the entry for berserkers in descr_model_battle to see how it works.

what is XIDX?? where can i get it if it`s a tool..??

**shifty157** · 01-06-2006, 20:58

Check the scriptorium. It has links to all the different tools.

XIDX is a tool to edit the animation files. It can also be used to scale skeletons.

**Lentonius** · 01-07-2006, 15:14

yeah, but that uses command prompt i think...

i always get nervous when going into command prompt as it can destroy everything in a jiffy if not used correctly

make a backup of you animations folder (or the whole of RTW to be safe). Press H after opening the tool to see the different actions. Create a new animation (N) using the existing dog animation and name it fs_doglarge or something. Then scale that animation (S) by a value eg. 2. Then in descr_models make your dogs have a scale of 2 and use the fs_doglarge animation. If something goes wrong you can restore any files you've changed from your backup.
