Troubles dismounted units

[Tintin2]

I'm trying to create a 'Dismounted Khassaki' (Kingdoms unit) wich always fails. Either I get a error at starting up M2TW or these units are invisible in custom battles.
I have no idea how to make this work, I already try to learn from those 2 tutorials (norse war clerics, tsars guard and swiss pikemen).
My biggest problem is to edit 'battle_models.modeldb'. It's chinees to me even with the tutorial to understand this file.
Main problem is to get these units only have a primary weapon (their swords) I'm not able to remove their spears.
Could someone help me out?
Just started with modding ..
Thanks anyway for reading this.
Kind regards

You'll have to edit the model to remove their spears. Probably the simplest solution would be to replace them with primary swords from another unit.

you should remove the spear from the mesh(model), then you need to edit the animation part of its mdb entry. bellow is copied from dismounted feudal knights:

1
4 None
14 MTW2_Swordsman 0
2
18 MTW2_Sword_Primary
14 fs_test_shield 0
16 -0.090000004 0 0 -0.34999999 0.80000001 0.60000002

Just as an FYI, there is a tutorial in the tutorial section of the Mod Workshop on how to make dismounted units :
