Exporting the player

by Jonathan Lessard · in Torque Game Engine · 05/07/2003 (1:42 pm) · 2 replies

Hello,
I have modeled a new character and have done everything to export it as a player. I manage to get it in the game but he's running sideways. That is, in idle mode he's correctly oriented but when running he turns to the left and runs sideways. What is going wrong?

I've never had this problem, but from the way it sounds it could be that the axis or orientation is 90 degrees off. So, he *thinks* he's running straight, but he's really going sideways... Just like a crab(unless you get one drunk, in which case, it actually manages to walk forward, but I don't recommend pouring beer on your workstation to fix that problem...).

Yep, exactly like a crab. I guess if I make my own animations with it it'll go straight. What's strange is that I've used the exact same skeleton.

thanks anyways!
