Anyone know how to mod an unit with pistols ?

I've literally just done this with pirates (who are the easiest to mod like that), a guy called dogmeat has done an excellent tutorial on these forums if you dig around. I think it's in the "imperial splendour" sub-section.

ty i found the problem, my unit was ok but i let the ammo on 0, so they spawned with melee weapon locked

I´ve been looking throught the forum but i´ve not found any tutorial explaining how to give pistols to a unit. I only found a thread about it, but no explanation of how to do it. I would really appreciate if someone pointed me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance, and excuse me for resurrecting this thread.

write those lines to your pistol units

animation table: personality_officer
warscape: euro_officer
column just before accuracy: pistol
projectile id : pistol

u can mod animation and warscape tables as u want to give a pistol and another weapon, bags but i never did

You can add a pistol to any unit using the secondry weapon slot in Warscape _equipment_themes table good to know if you want dragoons and higlanders to have there main weapon as well as a pistol..

Try putting this in animations_table.txt:

animation_table man_axe_pistol
{
skeleton_type man

fragment man_common_fragment
fragment swordsman_death_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon
fragment axe_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon
fragment officer_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon
fragment climb_fragment

fragment horse_rider_base_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon,
fragment officer_pistol_horse_rider_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon, secondary_weapon
fragment axe_horse_rider_fragment default_equipment_display = primary_weapon

mount_table mount_horse
}
