Title: Minuteman's staff???
Post by: billdamn22 on March 06, 2008, 08:38:50 AM
I have tried to skope this onto a mesh countless times, and can't seem to get it to show. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I am trying to do my version of a modernized Minuteman.

Have you asked the staff, Patriot, nicely? It is semi-sentient, y'know.
:lol:

I thought it was part of the mesh, e.g. part of his hand.

I'm going to take a stab at this, bill.  Which staff are you trying to transfer: the one in his hand or the one on his back?  The one on his back is keyframed to scale to 100% from its nearly invisible size only when MM is trying to pick up/carry/swing a pole or lift/carry/throw an object.  Without those keyframes present on the other mesh, it might not show up properly.  I have had no difficulty moving MinuteMan's staff to other meshes, so I am not certain what your process has been.

No, it is a sepeaate part, and quite easy to hide with standard hexing methods.

Around these parts, I believe the correct term is "Minute Man's sticky thing".

Quite right, Kenn.  I believe that only Liberty Lad could be referred to as "Minuteman's staff," and even that is debatable.
