Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
Haha, well I haven't done anything with animations or rotations in OG yet, so you're ahead of me on that front. Also found the blog post about blend shapes while I was reading the linear algebra ones, and digging through all those old gold nuggets. I was totally unsure what to do about those, but all I have to do is make new .obj files and the it only moves vertices that have moved, and won't affect the texture, so now I can at least have the fax and raptor make fists.
Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
That was pretty simple, once I realized that editing the "movement.xml" file doesn't have any effect because rabbit's use "r_movement.xml"... Doh!
I posted some stuff in the showoff thread. Also, pity, I was hoping you'd have already tried out the animation exporting.

Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
Haha, yeah. Well, that's cool. I haven't tried installing your mini mod yet, but I'd like to make the animations for it sometime. I think I'll work on the bird mount's animations first so I can figure out how to make it happen. Or maybe I'll start experimenting with the animations for your mod first so that the bird's come out better. I dunno, but I think I'll put the raptor on the back burner for now. His tail and minor skinning errors are going to require me to completely rerig him by hand, and I don't want to right now. Maybe some other time, I'll work on getting him playable. For right now, I guess we can call him the first dedicated OG NPC. "The Raptor: Putting new meaning to the phrase Non Playable Character" I guess I'll download and install your mod, and look at what animations it needs. That ok?

Maybe there could be a little first-person hotkey or option. Just for fun.
Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
I think someone made a mod for that a while back. Just a small camera code change I think. And it happens in the character code, so you can change it in real time.

Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
Yup, those're the ones I was talking about. Not sure if their still compatible, but why not give 'em a shot? I actually had an idea for a more advanced first person mode, but it's a little beyond my programming skills.

RANDOM MISSION GENERATOR
I've been playing Soldier of Fortune 2... almost a DECADE since it's release... and I'm still playing it. Just sayin.
Also, I know there will be a level editor - just not sure I can be bothered with doing much more than setting variables before awesome fast paced bunny martial arts action Action ACTION!!
So yeah, random mission/level generator with a Worms3D style setting of variables.
What do others think of this idea

Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
That's not a bad idea, but I'm not sure how it would work with the current system Wolfire has for creating levels. I couldn't do it, but David might be able to figure that out if they wanted that feature.

Locked-in fighting wouldn't really work for OG's system, as you would have to lock and unlock quickly for the sometimes 3+ enemies attacking you simultaneously. Locked-in fighting only works in games where enemies wait their turn to attack you.dvizll wrote:multiplayer w/ranks

Multiplayer ranking is not a bad idea, as long as (A There is actually multiplayer , and (B It is purely skill-based (fastest level time, highest score, etc.). There will be no leveling in OG.
Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
I thought he meant that you fight someone inside a cage that has been locked so you can't get out. It'd have to be pretty big because so much of OG combat is based on maneuvering and movement.Jacktheawesome wrote:Locked-in fighting wouldn't really work for OG's system, as you would have to lock and unlock quickly for the sometimes 3+ enemies attacking you simultaneously.

lol That's what I though too Endo. I was all like, "Well that's why Aubrey made an arena, silly."

Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
Huh. I missed that. Looking back, that is probably what he meant
People have posted about that, about the idea of having to lock onto opponents before attacking (like you would in a 1v1 boxing game), so there was the confusion.

Re: Overgrowth - Random Idea Dumping Thread
I'd love to see things like this if you manage to sneak up behind an enemy's back.
