Combine Animation Patch WIP - Developers

Ok, the Combine Soldier Animations are done, now I have to compile for errors and finalization.

Are you compiling them as new animation files (making recompiling of every model that needs to use them necessary) or are you recompiling the current animation files, which makes everything a lot more painless and automatic?

The latter; I can't de/recompile every character model in existence. Well, I probably could, but the latter is a lot easier.

Oh what just happened? -_-

Well, the MDL file compiled, but for some reason, only a few CP animations work and the rest of the animations are fucked up, mainly the legs.

Tomorrow maybe, because it's 2:50 AM where I am currently living.

Ok I hexed the sniper but his cloaking is different from the picture, He keeps changing colors, how do I get him to get all predator like, like in your screenshot?

Might be something with the VMTs, or it could be your graphics card; I had a 5200 when I took this screenshot but now that I have a 9400, his colors keep changing with environment depending on my angle.

In that case he's fine, I didnt think he was supposed to change colors.

[QUOTE=JDER14;15918708]I thought the sniper skin for the combine soldier was all rainbow-y and messed up.[/QUOTE] That would be the unaltered Beta skin you're thinking of. This is a patched version, which I'm assuming is what VALVe would have made him look like if he had been finalized.

There is a full working version of the Combine Sniper in Shotgunguy49's HL2 Beta pack.

[QUOTE=Omolong;15920140]There is a full working version of the Combine Sniper in Shotgunguy49's HL2 Beta pack.[/QUOTE] It's just a player model.

It's still a model though. You can still use the model.

[QUOTE=IamEpic;14427485]Yeah, I think that might be a coding issue, but I'll look into it.[/QUOTE] Actually, i've been able to reload my stunstick in HL2DM before, and it played the SMG reload animation. Everyone complained I was holding my stunstick like an AR2 :P

If you can do this can you make the Human Males be able to shoot pistols correctly like metro police? If you can then I love you

oh my god you just bumped an old thread

I've been having a go at this didn't know someone else had already tried. I found adding the male_shared.mdl to the police model gave them most the missing weapon anims, they still can't use most of them though, as I don't think theres anything for them in their AI scripts. Though i'd like to know how the OP got the combine anims to decompile as I can't get them to ¬.¬ Edit: finally got it to download... Anyone know what are the conflicting anims and i'll clean up the mess of anims in these models.

Is there anyway to have them use sweps, is it an animation problem or what?

[QUOTE=devmon;17246082]Is there anyway to have them use sweps, is it an animation problem or what?[/QUOTE] Depends, I can have them using alsorts of SWEPs but alot of them don't work (more due to the AI I expect). Edit: Lua code to add NPC weapons [code]list.Set( "NPCWeapons", "(weapon lua folder name)", "(list name, what you want it to be called in the NPC weapon list)" )[/code] Example (GoW Lancer): [code]list.Set( "NPCWeapons", "chainsaw_gun", "Chainsaw Gun" )[/code] (not sure if they can actually use the Lancer but it was the closest code to hand) Lua file can be called anything aslong as you don't have spaces in the filename, put in the lua/autorun folder (make these folders if you don't have them).

This is more useful for RP NPC animations. Metropolice that can sit, citizens that can use the stunstick, yadda yadda y'know

[QUOTE=Lolcats_101;14222849]Any chance you will be adding extra animations for this as well? That will be awesome. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=610062&highlight=kaffi[/url][/QUOTE] that uses the combine soldier animations so yea

is there going to be another update for the animation, I love it

Where can I get the latest update?

[QUOTE=IamEpic;14219505]I didn't, Dr. Zoidburg did: [url]http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/52114[/url][/QUOTE] Where do i put this skin? Please Reply!

Nice bump.
