Alexandermb

@wowgetoffyourcellphone the promotion is ready and is beautiful.

Fixed the heads.

1. i'm still doing that one because its a bit harder tan the slow run which is walk now i was thinking on use the trot for the heros so i'll leave them with unique animations. 3. you mean the heads in the horse neck ? i dind't touch those yet so if i get there i could change the models from the old heads to the new heads. 4. i did a longer one (just stretching) for the mace cavalry the one they are using but i dindn't make it more longer for work on it more accurate. 5. i Agree on that after i did the capturing animation i swaped inmediatly to attack, but i found a way to make it similar to enrique's by copying the animation and just fixing the legs so i will use it for the cavalry as well. 6. Noted i check later. for the promotion animation i was thinking on the movie Alexander and those statues in my country of Simon Bolívar, but i dind't was going to get too much for Hollywood unless team approves.

@Sundiata @wowgetoffyourcellphone the latest files have been checked?

@stanislas69 isn't much but at least a bit bend Zebu17.7z

@stanislas69 you mean like this or when falling ?

Sirvió mas de ejemplo el de la escena de roma, la de Alexander casi ni se ve, y como dice lord el sonido ayudaría bastante.

@stanislas69 Zebu17.blend

@stanislas69 of course, i'll check the files later

@stanislas69 Croc.7z

It remembers me what Warcraft 3 have in their maps which AoE doesn't but many other RTS have (Rise and fall civilization at war/ Rising Kingdoms) and adds a delightfull touch to the gameplay about map control this is a really nice touch i'll like to see in 0 A.D. Good job!

For the projectile you could make an armature with at least 2 bones 1 called A and the other called prop-A both in the same place but the prop-A attached (Parented) to the first bone, then attach in the XML file the axe to the prop bone (or any other thing you like to add) and animate a 360 degree rotation like a clock in the Z Axis if the axe head is in the Z Axis just 1 rotation it will took like 20 frames and then you set the speed in the XML file as an idle animation this way the prop having an idle animation it will rotate infinite times. thats my tought but i haven't tried it before. @Hello For the Hero "ability" you could add an aura to the hero and then specify in the aura wich units to affect if you only want to affect an specific kind of unit make sure the unit have an unique Class example= to affect.

@Sundiata the animation is 150 frames lenght 150/6=25 that means it will took 25x2 to manouver while the current animation is 0>50 flat 51>150 manouvering for smooth look like, what i could do is copy the animation in the flat time and make another animation with only flat movement and use 3 variants 2 flat 1 manouvering.

Ok i think i got the snake-like tail movement thanks to someone who helped me in here with some math example,, now its just fix the bounce and try what sundiata says

Thats for the speed, i tried what @Sundiata suggested but they broke some things so i reverted everything and went first into the speed theme. I did some test with curves yet they need some carefull look.

@stanislas69 check this file scaled the frames to 140 and in 30fps. If i'm not wrong it was the speed and the time of the frames Croc.7z

Question: What should i do for make the tail more like a snake?

i got some things to do today at least until 6pm after that i'll fix the animation asap

Moved slightly backwards the right leg the left one is fine otherwise in the animation will look rigid in that leg here is the mod folder with the latest update including the 4 basic variants for the horses for easy handle. Horse_new.7z

They have walk1 and walk 2 and some walk 3 with a Little difference of speed.

@stanislas69 maybe try similar to humans walk speed 1=a+1 2=a 3=a-1 or i should make another animation where the croc don't move the back leg's and just swims

Removing 2 extra bones on the back legs i got this @Sundiata this is what you mean?

Fixed the blocky butt i only had to remove 2 bone influences now for the other think i will need maybe some drawed line to see what i need to do. I had to remade the galop animation so as you can see the chest think popped up again.

Test this one ingame and take screenshots ingame for a better look. Horse_new.7z

The most that can be fixed whitout making the armature deform randomly
