1. I was wondering if its possible to add a weapon to a civilian unit, as in actually make it look like the civilian is holding a gun
i added the data weapon to him but i would like the visuals as well. I'm trying to add nova's sniper rifle to a civilian physically and statistically.

2. On the same page, how come when you duplicate a unit in data editor and then try to place him on the map, he shows up as a white bubble or invisible? how do you duplicate units?

If you want to change a model then you will need to export the model from SC2 edit using a 3d modelling program and import it back into your map.

Basically, when you duplicate, all you need is the Actor checked.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
