Archon II Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I'm looking for a specific animation, one where we have a character sitting and moving to his side, typing on a console, or something to that extent as the Ebon Hawk's pilot. I've tried loading both Atton's and Carth's animations, but they don't have any, along with a good majority of other models. Is there a generic .mdx all models use, where I can get the animation, or where else can I find it? It's for the M4-78 Restoration Project... Thanks in advanced.

Most models don't have their own animations, but rather use the standard animations specified in one of the animation supermodels. If you use NWMax you can see the name of the supermodel used for animations if you select the AuroraBase modifier, on the same page you use to export models under MDL Base Parameters (on the "bent pipe" tab in gmax). The supermodels tend to have the S_ prefix in their filenames, e.g. S_female03.mdl etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archon II Posted July 9, 2006 Author Share Posted July 9, 2006 I see! I'll get back to you if it ends up working. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchargin Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Hello, Try looking at: s_male01.mdl s_male02.mdl s_female01.mdl s_female02.mdl s_female03.mdl These should hold all the generic animations for players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archon II Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Well... I saw a lot of Combat animations, and some other animations, but I never came across any typing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cchargin Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hello, It has been quite a while since I played K1 or K2, but I vaguely remember that all the sitting characters I saw in both games did not have any animation. They just sat there. I recall an animation where someone is standing and typing. That is used when you are at a console. If there is no actual animation while the character is sitting then it will most likely be a 1 frame animation which will be a real pain to look for.

jonathan7 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 yo, there is one animation of someone sitting and typing... atton does it in the pilot seat of the ebon hawk, so the animations are in there somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavlos Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 There are several actually. There are two that Atton does - and every human character can do. And then there are several that seem to be attached to the Carth model for the fighter attack scenes in K1. However, importing Carth's model into max fails miserably as both he and his limbs like to rotate around a central point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archon II Posted July 16, 2006 Author Share Posted July 16, 2006 Yeah, and I'm wanting this for several scenes I'm rendering... I've realized that I can't animate a person to save my life at this point, because there are so many variables and whatnot that have to be altered to make the person look human... Hmm... Well, I guess I'll continue looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
