A dead body after force grip kill

[Langerd]

I think this is stupid and unnatural and should be change...

This is when we grip him (it is ok) -  http://i845.photobucket.com/albums/ab13/makskosa/shot0459_zpsc5b527db.jpg~original

Specially the last one look very pathetic. Somebody should change it .

All you really need is a new death animation, or at least a different one that makes more sense in the context of being suspended several feet in the air. I don't remember all of JA's death animations, so none specifically come to mind, but there's probably one that works.

It's more of a coding issue. When gripping, after the NPC dies from Grip, it plays the normal death animations, despite still being gripping in the air. It should recognize that the model is still being gripped, and the body should just go limp. So really, one could just change the code so when the gripped enemy is dead, to not play any animation and let the body turn into a rag doll body.

I agree ^^ I dont know anything about coding but i think that  changing to the ragdoll is good idea.

Still ragdoll in jk sucks a bit but it would be a better effect than the images on top.

[Darth_Bothersome]

JK ragdolls do suck. But it's up to somebody who knows coding to fix that, and it'll probably never end up happening. It'd have to be done in OpenJK, and I don't know if there was a licensed physics engine involved or not. Given the general lack of proper physics, I doubt it, but if there is, than that makes things more complicated.

[Xycaleth]

I don't think physics engines even existed back when JKA was made. But you're right, JKA doesn't use a third party physics engine so any additional physics like better ragdoll would have to be coded up by someone. I'm interested in having a go, but I have a long list of things that need doing first.

[Tempust85]

One giant leap for JKA at a time.

[Langerd]

He he ^^ phisics in jk like you can push a crate and it will flyin around or real ragdolls where people are not a piece of papers. And dismember guns , cloak phisics and of course more weapons in sp... my dreams QwQ
