Character Animations

#1 Take a look at the player.cs in the orcs folder, this will tell you want the animations (The sequence name, not the file file name) need to be named for the first 8 "Core movement" animations. As far as "On its stomach", sight unseen, i think you have your X Y Z's mixed up or something was applied during export.

You may also want to look on TDN.

#2 Thanks.

Quote:The character just currently slides around on it's stomach through the level and looks like it's twitching sometimes.

Sounds like upper management at my work...

#4 Like most corporate management types, they lack a backbone and thus can't stand on their own feet...

#8 Now there are a lot of things I cannot do well, but I was able to animate a character with MilkShape.
After you make the character, you make an animation and export them both, the character to something like player.dts and the animation to something like palyer-root.dsq. I used the DTSPlus plugin.
You need to edit player.cs and commnt out or delete all the animations you havent yet made, and edit the names of the ones you have to point to your files. Trying to use a stock animation on a file you made, unless it has the exact same skeleton, will not work.
So unless you have some old, old version it should work if you get the names right.
