Hi mates, some days have passed since last post here.
When do you think we could have a first release of your animated version of this great mod? Congratulations, you're making a fantastic job. |

Hi mates,
I have been working on animations together with Diving Duck for the last weeks, thankfully, he agreed to helping me implementing the animations. His knowledge about StateMachineControllers gave us the possibility to create multiple animations for each character. These animations are displayed dependent on different orders, game situations and also coincidence. By using this technology, a natural variety of animations can be archieved. Together, we made great progress at this mod. Diving Duck is actually working on a small trailer that will show you some examples of the different animations. I can't really tell how far away a first release is today, but it's my intention to provide the first animated version as soon as possible. So stay tuned, the trailer will (hopefully) be online by the beginning of next week. Best regards, MCHALO12.

I can't really tell how the hardcoded animations of the stock crew work in SH3, and I also don't know if there will be any problems if new crew models were implemented. From my point of view, I had to nearly completely rebuild my mod, and I don't think that this would be worth the amount of time which was needed. By the way, are there already better looking 3d-models that could be used? Best regards, MCHALO12.

i think silenteditor was able to export 3d data from sh4 also...so one can use the sh4 crew instead. anyway. using a new model means all related animations have to be rebuilt, cause changing the 3d data destroys the existing animations.

Once I get the new importer/exporter for CFX finished along with the support files? Animating things will be easier. BUT! as the heads and such are seperate objects? It will be a MAJOR project to re-do the things needed to change Crew animations. It can be done!! Have no doubts about that! DivingDuck and I have both done tests to prove that it works. My last major project here is to get the needed work done for the CFX Tools. It's a free program that will support this type project. Then it's up to the clever new Modders to grab it all and run with it. |

Hi mates,
the announced teaser is ready and online, so everybody who is interested in the animations should immediately watch either the normal Version or the HD version of the teaser! :-) Have fun, Diving Duck and me are very excited to get feedback from you! Best regards, MCHALO12.
