Langerd Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 How to make this? Is this come from tags or bones names? How to make them work?
Langerd Posted July 22, 2017 Author Posted July 22, 2017 I want to make this model holding the weapon. I want it because it will allow me to make an animation with changing placement of the weapon model. I can make Two cannon vehicle that will be shooting rockets from two cannons - The bone will change place from one cannon to another and model of the weapon will change tooThis is not this two cannon vehicle but i just want to learn this... ijust cant acheive this.
Asgarath83 Posted July 22, 2017 Posted July 22, 2017 mmm, should be icarus script about taking a md3 model with a specific tag (hand or other) if you see hoth3 cutscene level a ragnos cultist call alora with a comlink on his hand. modview also allow to load a weapon glm model into *r_hand tag.

I care about the game. I wanted to put the repeater model inside of this droid. Now he is shooting from below .. even if i made skeleton with named bones.. i made tags *r_hand inside of his body - There is still no model he is still shooting from below.

Listen to This - I just removed whole body of the saber_droid. I exported the model - Only skeleton with the tags. Guess what? ..... Model is his hand. I rly starting to believe that tagging system works only with the skeleton that is made in a properly way... I even removed all tags and left r_hand tag only - Model is there. So i believe it is working with the skeleton.
Langerd Posted July 22, 2017 Author Posted July 22, 2017 Still doesnt work... i dont ... I made this for Worms model - It works ok .... It has new skeleton and i didnt named hierarchy parts like they should be named... and it worked ok. Worms is holding a gun in his hand. But here i just cant... make it to work. I made ne skeleton and new model for worms... and it works just fine.. but not with the droid :/

Langerd Posted July 23, 2017 Author Posted July 23, 2017 Ehm, friend... can i see the hierarchy of modview of bones and meshes parents relation of the worm working model and droid not working model and their NPC files?Here. As i said before - Worms works fine.. even if i didn't called properly his parts... This is weird. That is one good point... Worms is using models/players/_humanoid_worm/_humanoid_worm.gla skeleton but droid uses models/players/cloudy_sent/anim.gla... The models like Assassin_droid could have their skeletons coded in the game... I dont know..

I dont know..funny and strange stuff. i like it. is for morin mod?however... try to use hex editor for change gla path into glm file into models/players/_humanoid/_humanoid_cloudysent.gla i fear the troblem is that. maybe assassin droid gla is hardocoded. for what i have seen the assassin droid bubble shield is deep coded into source. all droid class of JKA are deeply coded into the AI files >.<AI_assassin_droid, AI_sentry, AI_interrogator Etc etc.class behavour is called on NPC_spawn.cpp and NPC.cpp . i see that same model have hardcoded stuff for tags and body parts.like atst drivable, for example or tie fighter vehicle.

Solution AshuraDX Posted July 23, 2017 Solution Posted July 23, 2017 @@Langerd I had the same problem with my turntable - fixed it by making the gla path include _humanoid.So you're on the right track Langerd likes this

Now He is shooting from the cannon now! Looked inside the model and i can see the gun now. Many Thanks @@Asgarath83 and @@AshuraDX Now i can work with the animations and make something cool ! ^^ My point is Is that it is possible to move the tag of the weapon (The flash and placement of the gun model) with the movement of the bone. It is cool for making an enemy - A Big droid with two cannones and in one frame weapons is in the first cannon but in the other frame it is in the other cannon. I will test it soon! ^^

I will test it soon! ^^well this require a lot code work also. because you need to set droid like cultistcommando npc (so dual shoot weapon enabled ).you can shoot weapons and spawn weapon models and force power by EVERY body parts you desire, not necessary the hands. you just need to move into the model project the bolt_l_hand and bolt_r_hand tag of the skeleton.this work on some monster of my mod that have bolt_l_hand in mouth and so can shoot force power by mouth and bite (because the left hand saber is... an invisibkle bite saber XD lol ) also working on my fighter AI i see is possible if you build a custom AI of a droid to set other tag for shoot projectile.on CLASS_FIGHTER fighters use the weapons, but i changed efx and snd weapons by code and in the code when fighter change weapon remove also the glm model of weapon so weapon is invisible. also the muzzle and hands tag i placed into the cannons of the tie fighter...so it works.
