Character Animations

[Gray]

Having weapons visible in the hands in every pose also requires lots of new animations for these cases

Only in 2D. 3D animation with weapon and without it has no difference.

It looks rather silly too, especially in the example you provided, holding a big gun in only one hand as if it's made out of paperwork.
I'm with Lexx, I don't think that we need that.

Not just that. Having weapons visible in the hands in every pose also requires lots of new animations for these cases and this really has no priority none whatsoever, as not even the really needed animations are done.

Ok, ok you're the bosses here. But anyway, in my opinion it's even more silly to have a gun in a hands, but when you fall down and it magically disappears. And when you wake up... PUFF... and you have a gun back in your hands. Pure magic as it is. Why to spoil a good feature, which is already done and just waiting for a few clicks to be implemented into the game? No need to answer, it's just a rhetorical question...

That's entirely Lexx' decission, I am just expressing my opinion here.

[Lexx]

Not my decission. Just pointing out the obvious. There is no need to talk about lots of "if then..", "in future.." stuff, if not even the basics are finished.

So how long this basic stuff will take,  when the wipe will be and please dont tell me Soon

The 3d stuff has nothing to do with the wipe, and no, you won't hear anything other then "soon".

I asked Lexx not You, are you his slave or what?

[Lexx]

It's not connected in any kind of way to the next wipe. Also keep in mind that nobody from the 2238 dev team is working on the 3d models and animations. It's 100% community based.

[Graf]

Depends on which stuff you're talking about. I can say for what I know:

1. 3D weapons - 100% done. Though, it may need a slight improvements in the future.
2. 3D armors - about 70% done. Basic armors are ready, so the game without of 3D NPC's is possible already.
3. 3D misc. stuff - about 60% done.
4. Animations. Basic animations for characters are 85% done. But the game still require a specific animations, like holding stuff (with 1 and 2 hands), sitting, laying etc. The problem is that Karpov are absent for a month already, so nobody is making new animations.

Can't say for sure when all together will be ready to use, it's completely depends on people's free time and their will to do something.

Double thx for answears.

[LagMaster]

how about you fall on the weapon or it falls over you?(when in KD)
you can add this in the KO animations

[Lexx]

I think 85% for basic animations is a bit too high. Also death animations need to be done as well.

I've checked it yesterday on the latest repository revision. Though I didn't count death and gore animations.

[Haraldx]

I have recently watched some animating and rigging tutorials and I'm thinking about making animations, however, I'll have to finish my models first.

[Jimmy BoyX]

Holy shit, we have almost finished all animations. What do you think about adding new? There miss animations like smoke, unarmed hits, sitting and, and many other.
