downloaded anims

[cassius]

I have just downloaded some free anims from psion website. They are a ninja character and a zombie. They have been around for a few years in b3d format and 2 other formats. Has anyone tried them with Le and are there any probs?

[Marleys Ghost]

I have not tried those two, but the Freebeast (a.k.a the "bug" in my demos) works well enough when converted, possibly a little heaavy on polys but no problems converting in UU3D

When I scale down the Ninja character in uu3d the skeleton does not scale down. Is this normal or is it best to scale the gmf in code.?

[Marleys Ghost]

are you scaling the scene?

[cassius]

no just the selection. Will try scene. thanks for help.

[Marleys Ghost]

I think if you just scale the selection it wont scale the bones/anim I used scene/scale to 2.00 and had no problems:

I loaded ninja into editor and animated it but textures were wrong and so was movement.

idling sequence just looked like a fast jerky movement. Textures were black. Think I forgot the mat file.

[Marleys Ghost]

This is the .mat I used for the quick test:

 

nskinbl.mat

 

texture0="abstract::nskinbl.dds"

shader="abstract::mesh_diffuse_bumpmap_skin.vert","abstract::mesh_diffuse.frag"
shadowshader="abstract::mesh_shadow_skin.vert",""

 

And this is the lua script I quickly wrote for the test:

 

--[[
1-14	Walk (normal)
15-30	Stealth Walk
32-44	Punch and swipe sword
45-59	Swipe and spin sword
60-68	Overhead twohanded downswipe
69-72	Up to block position (play backwards to lower sword if you want)
73-83	Forward kick
84-93	Pick up from floor (or down to crouch at frame 87)
94-102	Jump
103-111	Jump without height (for programmer controlled jumps)
112-125	High jump to Sword Kill (Finish em off move??)
126-133	Side Kick
134-145	Spinning Sword attack (might wanna speed this up in game)
146-158	Backflip
159-165	Climb wall
166-173	Death 1 - Fall back onto ground
174-182	Death 2 - Fall forward onto ground
184-205	Idle 1 - Breathe heavily
206-250	Idle 2
251-300	Idle 3
]]

require("scripts/class")

local class=CreateClass(...)

sframe = 1
eframe = 300

function class:CreateObject(model)
       local object=self.super:CreateObject(model)

       function object:Render()
               frame = (AppTime()/80.0) % (eframe-sframe) + sframe
               model:Animate( frame, 1,0, 1 )          
       end

       function object:Free(model)
               self.super:Free()
       end

end
