Variant Editor Question

[NateTheGreat1990]

Hello,

I've just recently gotten started with Unit Skinning using the Variant Editor. Learning it all was a little difficult at first, but now I feel better about it.

I am helping out with a mod now and my task currently is to skin the General Units for the factions. The problem I'm running into is I can't figure out why I can't have a belt on the unit for example and then put a scabbard (sheath for the sword) it deletes the belt. Basically, overwrites it. I asked one of the Mod Devs about it too and I'm asking on this forum in case you guys might know something he doesn't.

Some pictures of what I'm dealing with:

After adding a random scabbard for example purposes - http://i.imgur.com/0HTmIMi.png


TL;DR - How do I exactly combine different parts together if it is possible?

You probably already figured this out but I wanted to share my input.

I haven't been modding for long but from my understanding if you put more than one item in a slot it will randomly choose from the items when it generates the unit. So if you want a guaranteed item, put it in a unique slot. If you want your units to variate include different items in the same slot.
