So I've been working on a stormtrooper Obi-Wan (as seen in the Clone Wars cartoons):

Here is my rough draft...

Any ideas for getting the capes on him?

Wow. Awesome job so far man. Add the cape and "skirt" (I don't know what you want to call it... ARC Trooper cape, whatever) and it'll be perfect. To tell you the truth though, I don't know how to add the cape. Though, you may want to ask OOM-9. Supposedly he's found some way to attach a cape to a unit...

I didn't find a way, a member of my team did and I will steal none of his credit.

He will release a completed Magna Guard and then he can tell you all what he did :)

I don't post his name so that you guys don't mob him :P

P.S. Awsome work my friend, I always liked the battle armored obi-wan from the cartoon.

My mistake then. Still, I myself am curious as to how to attach a cape to a unit without any hardpoints already there. It might prove useful in future mods and such. New possibilities, methinks.

Easy, just go into the Count Dooku or Darth Vader ODF files. Copy the stuff about the capes into the ODF for this new Obi-Wan. Then, copy the cape files into your MSH folder. Reskin the cape, munge the map, and then play it, and it should work out fine. Do the same thing for the skirt (use the Republic ARC Trooper ODF file).

The capes and such do not work as they did in SWBF1.

Woah... Bandu, that sounds awesome! Seriously, let me know when you get that working, that should be an insanely cool unit...

So how did you get the cape working? I've had zero sucess with capes thus far...

Oh... and the skin has been a pretty simple reskin of Stormtrooper Han Solo... Didn't really take all that long...

I take it that's the Han Trooper model due to Obi's afro.

Obi-Wan in a Stormtrooper uniform? When did this happen? Could someone perhaps enlighten a guy who's only seen about 15 Clone Wars cartoons? :)
