is it possible to make a creature be able to wear armor and you see it cause then i would become a doomguard with tier 6 if yes then someone plz figure out how and post a guide

it _is_ possible. but ****ing hard. attaching models (the shoulders and weapons) is definately possible. (-> [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]). in fact its not that hard. and the other things (the texture things. kilt etc.) are in fact harder. you'd need to add new texturelayers fitting the model. this is very hard. try the attachments.

so to say it in a few words:

possible:
objectcomponents (helm, shoulders)
not possible
texturecomponents (kilt, gloves, feet)

have fun figuring it out.

you can do it. depends on the model used, on how well it will turn out. Use m2modder (cyrects tools, search for em) to change the texture types. Usually they are set to look at the creaturedisplayinfo dbc. you want it to look at player files. its pretty easy to do that part. just drag and drop the file you want to mess with. before that you might want to look in mws and see the animations the model has available to it. this will determin how playable it will be. more animations the better. if it doesnt have the basics like 1&2 hand weapon animations you wont be holding a sword without more of the work that has already been talked about. i like them to have a swim animation. without it they look retarded. a jump helps but its not a deal breaker for me...stuff like that. now you need to make the skins to swap in. if the main body skin doesnt look similar to a skin from a normal players race (human dwarf etc) as in face in the lower right, arms upper right, chest and feet to the left. if its not set up like this it wont wear your armor well. your armor will end up covering parts you dont want it to. like boot skins covering your face etc. you need to break the skin up into parts. look at the humanskins and see how they look. there are a facelower and upper, torso and pelvis files that the skin needs to have besides the whole skin. the face skins demensions are 128x60 for the lower, 128x32 for the upper. torso is 128x90 and pelvis is 128x32. so cut them from the original skin you want to use, make them blp's and then swap them in for whatever race you want. if you just want 1 skin set you will just have to scroll through the skins on the creation screen until you find what you want. you could alter the coloring on a skin and make several. totally replacingwhatever race is there. keep in mind that if you just swap it will make all the npc's in game look like that. and they might not be wearing a skin that fits thier new model.

some models are missing data for capes and larger boots and gloves. robes can sometimes be a problem as well. these are still playable. just dont use those items. most models i found just dont show a cape. i did have 1 that made your back invisable. robes will either make leggs invisable or will cover like coveralls. i have had both. for the bigger gloves and boots you just get invisable hands and feet. so just dont wear them. like i said tho. this isnt with all models. I cant get naga to show helms. furbolgs wont show shields and have no animation for a 2 hand weapon. so it looks like a 1 hand weapon no matter what you use. stuff like that. just have to play around with them. most models are not perfect. but allot are close enough to play with. depends on how critical you are. like i said for me. gotto have swim. good luck. drop me a pm if you have questions. ill try to help.


oh and as far as shoulders go...It mioght be a problem but i havent had it be as of yet. since shoulders are seperate models i havent had any problems. and the only problem i had with helms not showing is on nag. but they just look normal. just no helm. the hard part for helms is finding which race gender will fit decent on your head. i couldnt find one to fit ogre. they were all to small.
