Off-Handed Weapons?

bluegoon

Hi guys,

How do we handle Off-Handed weapons when submitting? Do you only submit the main handed weapon and the off-handed weapon afterwards? Is there no way to group them together for a preview shot?

Thanks

Have to import each separately. Import the first. Then import the second, while the second is in model viewer then go to bottom right 'additional', click that and find the other weapon. That'll show them both together.

Still have to upload as two files

Tnx but it asks for an .mdl file? How do I generate that?

the additional tab will have a slot for the first weapon you compiled. click the button and it will show you a folder that has your item in it, then search for it.

(example, compile fist weapon named 'first weapon'

then compile weapon 2 named 'weapon 2'

While weapon 2 is in model viewer select 'additional tab' and it will let you pick other meshes. Pick whatever slot 'first weapon' goes in.

folder 6sd6d7f9>first weapon?>first weapon .mdl

Thanks, but I can only export as FBX, not .mdl, no idea how to generate an .mdl

@bluegoon: just import that Offhand weapon like you import any other items. Each items need to be imported and submitted to the workshop separately, there is currently no way to import and submit a whole set at the same time. The MDL files will be compiled by Dota2's importer when you import the items.

Ah OK Gotcha! Thanks!
