11. Going back to your unit object, add these behaviors to it:

Code



    Behavior = WeaponSetUpgrade MountWeapon

        TriggeredBy               = Upgrade_MovingBow

        WeaponCondition           = WEAPONSET_CREATE_A_HERO_WS_01

        ConflictsWith           = Upgrade_NotMovingBow

    End



    Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades1

            TriggeredBy = Upgrade_MovingBow

            RemoveUpgrade = Upgrade_NotMovingBow

         End



        Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades2

            TriggeredBy = Upgrade_NotMovingBow

            RemoveUpgrade = Upgrade_MovingBow

         End

So what is going on here!? Well, when you unit starts moving, it triggers an event that grants the upgrade Upgrade_MovingBow. By getting this upgrade, your weaponset changes and you het the weapon RohanRohirrimBowMovingHD. When your unit stops moving, this upgrade is removed and you return back to your normal weapon. This really helps makes things run better and works perfectly in-game :)

At this point, you should have an awesome looking Rohirrim archer unit that works exactly like you want it too! Complications will begin to arise though if you decide to make it a horde object, as seen on the next page.

I don't understand why it's not working... I did all like it was in tutorial. I tried to do it for Rivendell Archers in ROTWK... And it was no results...

Where do I find scriptevents.xml?

It depends on how advanced you want your setup to be. The scripts allows for two different weaponsets to be created, one for moving and one for not moving. This is so that I can change attack power, accuracy, etc. You can try to set it up without the scripts, but I'm not sure how well it will work.

is the scriptevents.xml and scripts.lua very necessary? Please say no, because i dont know how to get them...

Well, first, I don't think there are animations for Theoden swinging his sword on both sides of the horse. Second, you would have two melee attacks being performed at the same time so I don't really know how well that would work. But I think it would be possible, although it may look a little bit strange ;)

can this done with Theoden while charging he attacks with his sword only (no bow) also how to make him use both hands in attack when mounting to left and right ..( like in movie in Helmsdeep)
