Lei Hng Wei Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Originally posted by wedge2211 I'm sorry, but with it coiled like that hanging at his sides...that just looks dumb. It'd be better to have him holding one whole side of the coil. Yeah, can the coiled/holstered look be make to look right and not like an electric stove-top element?

keshire Posted April 13, 2004 Author Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hey, yall. Back off. It was just a test to see if something like that could be done. I wouldn't be expecting it anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lei Hng Wei Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 What!?! But, how is Antizac gonna make a BDSM Leela? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keshire Posted April 13, 2004 Author Share Posted April 13, 2004 If you can find a coder who wants to work on initializing weapons that animate, then I'll finish this up. As it is its just brainstorming. More than likely this would require a whole re-write of the animation function to incorporate this. As it is the only animations that are initlialized are player, npc, and vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsoontide Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Hi Keshire! Just noticed this thread - been busy elsewhere! If you can get me some decent references, I can easily make a clone wars rocket launcher (Hate that one in JKA) - esp since I'm doing toon durge and assaj ventress at the mo. Any progress with the speederbike anims? The dual blasters is probably most practical new anim I noticed in your screenshots (though thats just for JKA). What I'd like is a way to block lightning with saber (like obi wan vs dooku) but thats not an anim thing, so no worries there. I was thinking, how about a one armed handstand like luke on Dagobah? Just kidding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lei Hng Wei Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Originally posted by monsoontide I was thinking, how about a one armed handstand like luke on Dagobah? Just kidding! That'll be an interesting new taunt during duels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antizac Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Originally posted by Lei Hng Wei What!?! But, how is Antizac gonna make a BDSM Leela? NEVAR!!!!! Not for your amusment, anyway. Actually I was thinking about having a part in The Rising Empire, where the main character is wandering the Motel, opens a random door, and he walks in on a Female Rodian (or something) whipping a Gran. ...Since he's supposed to be on a trashy side of Coruscant. Ok, whatever. Just one of the random acts of weirdness, I was thinking of using... Anyhoo - sure would be nice to add animations in JA, like you can with Unreal...

keshire Posted April 16, 2004 Author Share Posted April 16, 2004 Hopefully when Wudan finishes Dragon, it'll be that much easier to add them in. Right now your relugated to using Max or XSI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd treat her well, promise. Anyway, I wonder what a dominatrix Rodian would look like in a leather mask? Seeing how you don't take requests, I suppose an Agent Scully in leather chaps and cat-o-nine tails is out of the question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amidala from Chop Shop Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 At least he asked for Agent Scully and not Agent Mulder (or one of the Lone Gunmen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy867 Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 Well, if not Agent Scully, how about Lara Croft, I mean she is into the whole whip thing and all:), plus it would seem she has no problems with getting into leather:-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB1 KNOB Posted April 18, 2004 Share Posted April 18, 2004 Keshire, Is it possible, using this, to make animations that could be used in cutscenes for SP maps, but not added as new moves or features? I've heard that several animations that were used in game can't be accessed via scripts, and this would allow people to make animations like those, but fit them to their needs. Plus it'd be nice for SP mappers to have the freedom of new anims. Anyways, just curious if it's possible or restricted to multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keshire Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Yes its possible. But I don't really think it'd be worth the time to do them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be clear I wasn't asking you to make any or anything, I just wanted to know if it was possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keshire Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 Oh I know. I'm just saying that once you get into doing somehting that involves lots of action you'd better be a damn good animator ot its going to look like total crap. With the skeleton i set up there is no IK its only FK. So your work is cut out for you. And your going to have to keyframe the entire thing. Which sucks; big time.

Weiser_Cain Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Say, is there a way to get lightsabers to have animated hilts? I wanted to have lightsabers that opened up and extended when powered on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lei Hng Wei Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I recall this being asked last month somewhere and the answer is, no. As cool as it would be to have moving parts (ie. Predator's retractable weapons), the closest you'll get is if it's an animated texture much like an animated GIF, but nothing that'll alter the model.

OB1 KNOB Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 Can motion capture be applied to that skeleton? I have no experience with motion capture and have no access to any facility or anything; it's just another curious question. Hope you don't mind.

keshire Posted April 22, 2004 Author Share Posted April 22, 2004 I see no reason why it can't. As long as you know how to set it up. And as far as animatable weapons go. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lei Hng Wei Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 Wow, talk about ancient. Here's a character that can make use of a whip. Lumiya took on Luke with a lightwhip. That issue was probably the introduction of dual wielding sabers, or in Luke's case a lightsaber and lightdagger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
