you will get better/faster responses and team aplications there(also there should be links to coding tuts in there)



and nice weapon,i would suggest not making hands, as it is impossible to make them match the model(and look nice), unless you limit the model selection.
Well, it could be possible to have each model linked to a hand model with specific animations, and have a gun model attached to that. Frag-Ops does something like that, but they only change the skins. Methinks it'd be cool if Chaos could ever implement something like that.
Frag Ops is so damn stupid...they create an ENTIRE BIPED just to use the biped's arm for the anims...BAHAHAHAH stoopid.... :twisted:

Identikal......Bad form brO. If we were to do something like that, I would want to link the entire biped to the players view and try to imatate what was done in Riddick. IMO they were on the right track. Create the biped and hide what you dont want/need. That way you can do more complicated anims while using the ease of doing them on a biped :) Just imagine what it would be like to do a lunge forward or to the side and seeing your bodyparts moving perfectly to the animation if you look down while doing it. Believe me, Its quite an effect.



And Maet, The only way i would ever take on that project is if somehow i could use the actualy player models as 1stP visable. Then it would only be a matter of animating the skelly and playing the anims that we needed at the right time. All unimportant as there is no way Chaos would go back and redo every animation for every weapon. A. we dont have the man power. And B. it would take the better part of a year. I wouldn't hold my breath if i were you. ;)

Well, just an idea, anyways, I'm already holding my breath to see if Electronic Boutique will actually pull through with my copy of WoW :wink: .
