Custom unit question...

OK, how do I do this:

I want to create a custom unit (from an already ingame model i.e. civilan man 8), but I want to incorporate a custom face I have downloaded...I mean I only want the unit to have that face, not a random or players choice face.

Thanks - Fubar

this is very simple, in the init field type

this setface "facename" where it says "facename" put the name of the face (you'll probably find it in the readme)

hope that helps.

think ill quickly ask another question on this topic, does anyone no how to give the face sunglasses?

I think he ment how to do it outside the game, not with the initialization thing.

I've noticed a few units which always have the same face, no matter what you put in their init field, the ROC Marine Major (From Taiwan 2002), and the TOW Marines. I've DePBO'd the marines (Rcon.pbo) and checked the config.cpp, nothing to do with faces in there, so it's got to be in the "model" file, which is a p3d, which I don't have a clue about.

Hope this info was useful...
