Need help on mod for hk-47

[randydg]

Can anyone tell me if its possible to change the hand output on hk-47 to be something besides a blaster? like where do i need to go to get hk-47 to carry a vibroblade. How hard is it to change it to allow it to do this? If not, is there a way to fake a vibroblade out to make it think its a blaster so hk-47 can hold it?

It's possible to do, but pointless... there are no animations for HK with melee weapons.

[Prime]

Which is too bad. It would open up a lot of possibilites.

[randydg]

for cutsceen purpose is there a way to skin a human into hk-47 and still beable to use mele? where it relys on the humans animations?

You mean equip something that gives the (N)PC the apppearance of HK-47 but can still use melee weapons?

 

No.

 

When you use the Disguise function it literally makes the object, wheather it be a droid looking like a human, or a human looking like a hutt, become that object. It copies everything over, animations, textures... the whole sha-bang.

 

If you meant reskin a model with HK-47 parts I suppose that would be possible but it would look nothing like him =/

Now you see the funny thing is that if you warp to Peragus from a new game using warp 103PER I think for the area with the HK-50 in it and then exit the cutscene by doing warp *Random stuff* you will see the Hk-50 droid in a melee combat pose. I could be wrong but I'm positive I've seen this on my random searching through the game to find suitable sounding dialogue to splice together for new dialogue.

I have enver come across something like that, the only melee stances I have seen the HK-47 model do are without weapons <_<

[Shem]

If not, is there a way to fake a vibroblade out to make it think its a blaster so hk-47 can hold it?

 

I've done it. What I did is create an item that HK-47 can wear and gave him the bonus feat of melee weapons. But it's like Emperor Devon said, there is no animation for it.

The only possibility to achieve melee integration with HK-47 or any droid is if cchargin and jmac successfully decipher the *.mdl file format and conversion from ascii to binary (which, I can testify, they are very close to doing). Short of that, you're out of luck. Believe me, any work-around would simply not be worth the time (we're talking weeks if not months--all so HK can hold a sword) If you were insane enough you could theoretically (read again: theoretically) take HK's geometry, import a bone structure of, say, Hanhaar, re-rig HK's geom to hanhaar's bones, and if you're lucky, tenacious and masochistic enough, you might get it to work ingame.

 

Or you can wait for a new mdlops. you choose.
