Hi, I want to use an object as a weapon and alls well with the weapons shape being changed into the object that I want Garret to pick up and use...now the tricky part, it still shows a blackjack in Garrets hand, so I'm thinking that a new mesh arm with the object attached to it is needed, if so could some kindly person be able to create it for me please.
Thank you.

Great, thank you.
You need to to this.
-Put squirrel.osm in the root folder.
-Put the folder "sq_scripts" from the demo into the root folder
-In DromEd, load the scripts "script_load squirrel", save the mission/cow
-Add this script to the blackjack :s--script: DArmAttachment
-Now the tricky part. You'll need a custom hand. There's one in "Inverted Manse" (there are also other hands available). It's shape is "armbh". Put armbh.bin+cal in /mesh. Put also handarp3.gif in mesh/txt16
-Add this design note to the blackjack:
DArmAttachmentPos="0.2,-1,0";DArmAttachmentRot="90,180,0";DArmAttachmentUseObject=2
-Add inventory --limb model: armbh
This might need some improvement for the position
Save the mission/cow and reload it. Or go in game mode twice. Try it.

Thank you.
I have done the tricky bit ok but:---
squirrel.osm not there
Demo not there.
What I unzipped from the download is:--
sq_scripts....folder, inside the folder is:---
Mesh...folder
Strings...folder
DScripts.cow
DScript.nut
DSDumpModels.nut
DT2UndercoverWeapons.nut
Thats all I have...sorry to be a pain.
squirrel.osm is in the NewDark.zip in "contrib.zip"
http://www.taffersparadise.co.uk/thi...v26-update.zip
Create a folder "sq_scripts" in the root folder, put the nut files there
Doing it now, thank you for your patience with me.
Squirrel Error \sq_scripts\DScript.nut Line = <497> column = <6> Error expected IDENTIFIER.
this is reported twice and then at the end it says Loaded Script Module "Squirrel.osm".
The latest script module is 0.30a

Ok alls well..but how bo I add a design note to the blackjack, I'm guessing that it is done through notepad??.
In DromEd: Add-->Editor-->DesignNote
Learning a lot here, thank you.
It works..thank you, it needs tweaking because the wooden arm I'm using as a weapon is half way up garrets forearm...but It works, thank you so much.
The position is defined in the design note
DArmAttachmentPos="0.2,-1,0" As you can see, the last parameter is not defined, so it's default=0;add it if you need it. Example "0.1,-0.6,-0.43"
You can change the data, for example
DArmAttachmentPos="0.3,-0,9"
The rotation is defined in the 2nd part of the design note
DArmAttachmentRot="90,180,0"
Don't touch the 3rd part.
Remember to go in game mode twice or reload when you try something.

I will, thank you for patiently walking an old man through this, I really appreciate it....0.43 did the trick and it is now in the hand just right.
