I'm working on a rancor unit. It crashes when I try to roll (press alt). The game just freezes. Nothing turns up in the error log.

I have these lines in the idle state of the combo to prevent rolling:

Posture("Stand", "!Roll");
InputLock("All", "!Fire", "!Crouch", "!Thrust");

and in the odf i have these:

EnergyBar = 0.0 // Max energy
EnergyRestore = 0.0 // energy regained per second if moving
EnergyRestoreIdle = 0.0 // energy regained per second if not

What are the .msh names for the rolling animation? I added any that contained the word dive but that did not help.

Does anyone know why this might be happening? This is the one thing preventing me from uploading it.

Messing with the IDLE state is risky and can cause crashes. Does your rancor jump? If not, then you could remove the energy bar entirely to stop jumping and rolling:
EnergyBar = 0.0 // Max energy
EnergyRestore = 0.0 // energy regained per second if moving
EnergyRestoreIdle = 0.0 // energy regained per second if not

thats exactly what i have in my post. No it does not jump.

Oh, i mean, only use those lines in your ODF. Make the IDLE state back to normal, and the crashes should stop.

Yes they were only in the odf where they belong. edited the first post for clarity.

Did you try fixing the IDLE state?

AFAIK there is nothing wrong with it. I have experience with combos but I could have made a mistake. here is my whole .combo

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]OffhandAnimation("stand_useforce", "FIRE")

{

    Loop("FinalFrame");

    AimType("Torso");

    BlendInTime(0.15);

    BlendOutTime(0.15);

}

OffhandAnimation("stand_useforce", "FIRE2");

OffhandAnimation("stand_useforce", "CHARGE");

Animation("stand_grab")

{

    BlendTimeIn(0.15);

    BlendTimeOut(0.15);

    BlendTimeTo("stand_idle_emote", 0.1);

}

State("IDLE")

{

    Posture("Stand", "!Roll");

    Duration(0.0);  // infinite duration

    EnergyRestoreRate();    // (0.0, "FromSoldier")

    InputLock("All", "!Fire", "!Crouch", "!Thrust");

    Transition("ATTACK1")

    {

        If()

        {

            Break();    // all transitions are breaking if Duration is 0

            Posture("Stand", "Crouch");

            Button("Fire", "Press");

        }

    }

}

State("ATTACK1")

{

    Posture("Crouch", "!Roll"");

    Animation("stand_grab");

    InputLock("All", "!Thrust");

    AlignedToThrust();

    Attack()

    {

	Edge(0);

        DamageTime(15, 55, "Frames");

        DamageLength(1.0);

        DamageWidth(2.0); //1.25

        Damage(600);

	Push(10.0);

    }

    Duration(60, "Frames");

    Sound("com_weap_melee_swing, 15, "Frames");

	Transition("IDLE");

}

[/code]

Why don't you delete the Posture line from the IDLE state, change the InputLock line back to InputLock(0.15, "Sprint", "Jump", "Crouch"), and try again?

What about RollSpeed set to 0.0? This would remove rolling from your unit.

razac you were right there was something wrong with the posture line! I had the posture set to only allow standing so when I tried to roll it crashed. I changed it to all and it works now. Idle state must have all postures but other states work fine with just 1.
