If spies are charged during an animation will they be knocked down?

Title says it all.

Dunno.

Zedblade · May 28, 2008, 02:36:14 AM

Yes.

frvge · May 28, 2008, 02:39:41 AM

Ah you mean the 'climb' bug? Yes.
My dunno was more about being KOd by a charging but shocked Merc.

I hope so. Will the animation when the spy gets charged be just rag doll? Or an animation?

Um...I think it should be all ragdoll physics. To be honest they are kind of expected nowadays. That way you don't have to worry about clipping and junk like that.

Ya huh, but I now expect Euporia physics like in GTA4 because they were so awesome. :D

That's actually the Spy/Merc rig in the Euphoria sandbox, heck, I could even export those animations.

Yes.

Thank God.

We don't know how much we can do for ragdolls. The problem is blending animations to 'get up' again. At the moment, we'll probably only have ragdoll for real deaths.

I <3 U · May 28, 2008, 12:10:56 PM

Ragdoll for charges would be awesome.

What if a spy used a magic spell?

Never having modded UT before, I don't know if you can use this, but UT3 comes with "get up from a ragdoll fall" implemented.

I'm sure our animators will look into that. But I don't know myself.

Yea, I was going to say that statement of fvrge was bullshit really, though, now that you basically told the same... frvge, that statement is bullshit :P (no offense ofcourse), there is no problem in blending from any pose to the stand-up animation :-\
