*Grabs babies and puts them in their cribs*

Why you

[Gabbe]

Stupid dad...
Okay, so any coder, how much code, when release?

[Omega]

*ignores the above spam. Omega's kick-spam-out-the-window skill is suffering downtime*

I'm willing to do a model or two, but first, I need to know what animations are needed, as well as a link to the models (I could assume its on page one, but my look-up-the-bloody-model ability is failing on me too...

In all honestly, what should I expect to have to model? I'm thinking idle, walk, run, and die?

ie: A deer would have a grazing idle animation, a walking animation for when unthreatened, and a running animation for when fleeing, not to mention a dying animation for when the poor thing wasn't fast enough.

[wciow]

@Omega: Yeah I think three animations should cover it for now. Idle, Move, Die. Maybe later we will need some further animations but three simple animations should suffice atm.

The annoying thing is that all of the animals will require a custom skeleton per model so lots of work, However I might put some extra effort into producing a generic quadruped skeleton which is re-usable for various four legged animals/creatures/monsters.

[kukac2]

Actually, deer, horse, camel or wolf, fox, dog could use the same skeleton. (However, it will look stupid later.)

[silnarm]

Yeah, a minimal set of anims (idle, move, die) will do for a start, then the initial implementation will be quite straight forward, the regular auto-command behaviour should be a fairly decent for a start (auto-attack and auto-flee), will just need a very minimal AI to tell them to move around every now and then.

Later, we can build on the basic AI and add stuff like pack mentality and fancier behaviours.

Maybe the dear should have two move anims as Omega suggested (a regular move and flee)...  Though the quadruped skeleton animation thing I hadn't really considered,

[Gabbe]

I can animate, just learned how to use IK solver properly.

[Omega]

Ok, I may try to animate some soon. Firstly, I assume only the bear has been animated and no one else has started? I'll have to take a look at the models to decide what I'd animate, since we obviously don't want to end up doing the same anims (would be a terrible waste of time).

So, for now, just three anims. Will download at home (stupid school 'net blocks Mediafire!).

Hopefully it will be useful.

I'll help if you guys want me too.............

[Gabbe]

John, im unable to open it, cannot "open file as archieve"

[John.d.h]

*grumble grumble*  Okay, gimme a couple minutes.

Edit: How about this?

thanks! but why compress such small files anyways?

Good armature BTW, just sad that it was confusing

Force of habit. That wasn't the problem, though.  Things are getting screwy when I transfer files from one computer to another.

You don't really have to worry about a lot of the bones.  For the legs, just grab the handles on the bottom, and everything else should work together automatically.

Uh...... Where do I download Wciows models?

There's a link in the OP, but I have no idea if that's all of them.

this one? the link is outdated from since for a long time...already, which is why I first "revived" this thread...

I know this topic is old, but can anyone re upload the files...   
They look really cool.
Thanks.

Wow...why is the forum sometimes being filled with user spam? sure, it might be better than bot spam, but still...unless it is the SPAM as in meat... (although I never tried it before, I think...) Oh no, it is contagious! I got OT!

K. I'll wait for Wciow to read this and post an updated link.

Thanks, I'll probably do some animations later today.

I'll post what I'm animating before I animate it, I suggest everybody else do the same so that we don't redo each others work.

[ultifd]

Wow, all of them...look cool.
But for the rabbit, there is some red where...it shouldn't be?

[kukac2]

It's just bloody. The rabbit is just a target, y'know

[Omega]

Ultifd, its a texturing thing. When textures are exported from blender, they have an outline in black, where vertexes are in red. The red is the red of a vertex. If you look at the TGA, you can see the red vertex's are still there.

Oh sorry, I didn't know... hmm...

Doesn't have to be, but... yeah.
