I'll see what I can come up with. Tell you what. I'll put a portfolio site together. URL tba.

i can't help think that those that dont want melee changed are those that do not use melee in DM. - Duel mode most likely wont be changed. But for DM, something should be done.

Then again, I could be completely wrong

Alot of great ideas have been mentioned in the last few posts. Here are my thoughts regarding blocking. For single projectile bullets CPP, sniper rifel, cutter, crossbow etc.. Could be plausable to say that you blocked with your sword blade at an angle, deflecting the bullet, so the blade itself doe...

LoQtUS, I did not intend to sound as though I meant to 'jab upwards' - I meant 'jab' as in a forward thrust. jab as in stab, rather than slash (horiz/vert). Admittedly, mace, hammer and axe weapons dont easily fit into a jab situation. :wink: Unless you want to bash someone off a ledge. If one thing...

Before dismissing that the Bones are truly flexible. take a look at the taunt animations that come with UT. Smooth, Quick and Complex. Then take a look at a game like Soul Calibur, surely some of the moves can be emulated. What I beleive is that perhaps real sword maneuvers were not studied before c...

FirstPerson Melee: Good: You can see yourself. The motion is great when you're running. (provided hiccup1 isn't in effect - more on that in the bad section :wink: ) It really puts you into the action. When you get hit by arrows, you can see them stuck into you. Bad: hiccup1 = When you first go into ...

We all know that a person wielding a sword, charging towards someone with a flak cannon, is going to die in the blink of an eye. So here is an alternative idea to faster melee users. Allow to melee user to dodge with no delays. (this would work alot like the 'fast-dodge' option in in the MultiDodge2...

I have been looking at the ChaosMeleeAnimations. I'm curious to know what program was used to create them. The bone structure of the UT2004 player meshes is extremely felxible. There is very little that can't be done. Comparing the Melee animations to that of the standard player animations (HumanFem...

I do understand, I have done alot of bone animation for Quake1 Models in the past, and I totally agree that animating a simple bone structure to imitate complex movement is by no means an easy task. But is by all means possible! :D Regarding: a lot of wrist actiosn and arm defromations simply cannot...

First off, great job with the ChaosUT2 Mod. Congrats. Now, I know that the team have all worked hard on the melee aspect of the game, and it is quite enjoyable to play... However, I feel with a few tweaks it could be excessively mindblowing action :D As it is, functionally, it works very well, but I...
