I searched the custom alcove thread and the CAP and elsewhere but I can't find the sword statue that is swordless to use as an alcove - didn't one get made at some point? I'm in need of it!

If I'm just going crazy and no swordless sword statue was ever made, can it be easily made?

Thanks!

Okay, I opened the "temple_gladiator_statue_dismantler" model in the GMT and see that the sword is part of the "goromorg_statue_base", but I can't find any way to isolate the just the sword, to maybe paint it with a clear texture so it will not be visible.

Maybe someone smarter than me knows how to do this?

Well we placed the Dismantler overtop the stone sword, but never removed the sword itself.
I'll take a look.

Edit: So I'm looking at it and strangely the sword and the base are the same model..
Deleting faces...
It got all blocky by the export, I hope turning shading to smooth is an adequate fix..

Edit.. what a wonderful idea for statues with empty hands >:3
My alcove ideas are going crazy!

Oh dear. Blender beat the piss out of this one.
He's even flipped horizontally some how!

no smooth vertex?

Don't time to check now. Will do so after work.

Thanks for looking into it, this will really make a certain room of mine much better! Looks like you're close

Kay.. I think I got it, but something I did makes GMT not want to asimp import it. If I import it normally, I lose all my material nodes. @_@


EDIT: Just made it a whole lot worse. I don't understand why it gets all blocky upon import to blender.

Here is the statue without sword:

No idea why the filesize went up that much, it has no duplicate vertices or anything like that.

@Neikun: You probably need to weld vertices to get proper smoothing. And you need to redo the smoothing if it's not just one group (like in this case), at least when I import the smoothing groups are all messed up, even the materials are.

YES, that works perfect, so nice for the puzzle!

Thanks!
