nykel007 Posted December 12, 2001 Posted December 12, 2001 I hope Raven puts in cool small animations. You know in JK+MotS like when kyle changes from saber to guns he would turn and, in my opinion a bit jerky pull each weapon out. With the new engine this should be a lot better looking. Also, what when you're in 3rd per. using guns, I hope we be able to see the saber. I also hope it moves and shifts whenever you walk, run whatever you do.
StormHammer Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 I have to say that in a lot of Raven games (especially recent games) their characters are always well animated. Using mo-cap should pick up a lot of the little nuances of movement that can really bring a game alive. So I'm confident we'll see some fluid weapon changes, etc., throughout the game.
MRJ Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 I'll have you know I spent *months* practising that 'elbow bent just so as head tilts back and the beer flows' motion so that it would be perfect. I'm still waiting for word when they'll be ready to mo-cap it. Ah well, back to 'work'
StormHammer Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 LOL Now that would be funny in-game. Walk up to a bar in a cantina, nick some poor NPCs brew and knock it back.
GonkH8er Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 i'd love to see one where kyle tosses his saber from hand to hand grinning.
StephenG Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Yes it would be nice to see Small Animations. In half-Life there were lots. that Freeman guy couldn't stop moving his gun around. i hope to see kyle spin his saber like obi-wan did in TFM.
Agen Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 JK has that weird animation were it looked like he was cutting off his houlder after u left the comp alone for about a minute.. Remember? REally a screen-saver i think though

Remember? REally a screen-saver i think though yeah, u mean when the camera does a 180 spin around kyle. that was ok for guns but for a saber?
Agen Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Yeh it looked like he was using his saber as a back scratcher. attempted suicide i'd say
CaptainRAVE Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by GonkH8er i'd love to see one where kyle tosses his saber from hand to hand grinning. Yea, maybe a few physical taunts
wardz Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 i would like him to start messing around with his lightsaber, then accidently kill some NPC. Like the sort of thing in Waynes World with Garth and the drill up the side of the car. But thats just me.. wardz
CaptainRAVE Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 I dont think this game is supposed to be a comedy.....would make a great mod though
Sounds Risky Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Originally posted by StephenG i hope to see kyle spin his saber like obi-wan did in TFM. TFM? The Feminine Menace?
Cmdr. Antilles Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 Wait a second! MRJ is drinking beer now!?! They must have cut his pay. He can't afford the high-quality scotch he's used to!
wardz Posted December 13, 2001 Posted December 13, 2001 hahaa. I think he'll take anything as long as it has a little percentage sign somewhere. : ) Shandy anyone? wardz
MRJ Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Originally posted by wardz Shandy anyone? wardz no [[get used to it...]]
StephenG Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Originally posted by Agen_Terminator The Farting Menace? Originally posted by Darth_Gehenna TFM? The Feminine Menace? GROW UP!!!
Cmdr. Antilles Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 I don't know MRJ, it's just not the original: No
GonkH8er Posted December 14, 2001 Posted December 14, 2001 Originally posted by CaptainRAVE Yea, maybe a few physical taunts Maybe some saber pelvic thrusts? or after bringing it down on someones head, he turns it off and blows it like a smoking gun
Lord_FinnSon Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 I'm happy enough, if Kyle takes a look around few times, when he is idle, but always keeps his saber ready for possible attacks and then perhaps spins it only once; maybe it's his own way of keeping himself calm. Otherwise moves like that are quite useless, especially during duels, because they tend to look like you are playing the big shot and that's why you easily get your butt(or face) kicked, like Maul shows to Obi-Wan few times before their final duel in TPM.
Millions o' Monkeys Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 but animations just make the game more enjoyable. Like the first time i played jk i stopped for lunch at one part and poof he strted moving his saber around...oh the days
GonkH8er Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 I loved the tribes and tribes 2 animations. You were able to perform them yourself, with preset keys, like little celebration dances and things. It was pretty funny. But I suppose some of those things would be un-called-for in this game. Rest assured, Raven will think of something.
Darth Bjorn Posted December 15, 2001 Posted December 15, 2001 Speaking of the animations, MRJ, I noticed that some of the animations in EF were recycled from SoF. I'm refering to the death animations. Will JKO be sporting all new animations.
