Vader and SBD

I'm hoping this will not require XSI.

I want the SBD to walk like vader but still use the standard wrist blasted shot.

I've tried "AnimationName = "vader""

ODF:

Code: Select all

[GameObjectClass]
ClassParent     	= "cis_inf_default"

[Properties]
AISizeType              = "HOVER"

AnimationName           = "vader"

WEAPONSECTION = 1
WeaponName     	= "cis_weap_inf_wrist_blaster"
WeaponAmmo     	= 5

WEAPONSECTION = 2
WeaponName     	= "cis_weap_inf_wrist_trishot"
WeaponAmmo     	= 0

WEAPONSECTION = 3
WeaponName     	= "cis_weap_inf_wrist_rocket"
WeaponAmmo     	= 3
WeaponChannel  	= 1

WEAPONSECTION = 4
WeaponName     	= "cis_weap_award_wrist_blaster"
WeaponAmmo     	= 4

VOUnitType      	= 083

VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_hostile      SpottedVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_bacta      NeedMedicVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_mechanic      NeedRepairVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_ammo      NeedAmmoVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_transport      NeedPickupVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_backup      NeedBackupVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_clear_area      AttackPositionVO"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_defend     DefendPositionVO"

VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_hostile_inVehicle      SpottedVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_bacta_inVehicle      NeedMedicVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_mechanic_inVehicle      NeedRepairVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_ammo_inVehicle      NeedAmmoVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_transport_inVehicle      NeedPickupVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_backup_inVehicle      NeedBackupVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_clear_area_inVehicle      AttackPositionVO +InVehicle"
VOSound = "cis1_inf_pc_com_defend_inVehicle     DefendPositionVO +InVehicle"
I would like the vader skeleton if the anime don't work but it still doesn't work.

Other ODF

Code: Select all

[GameObjectClass]
ClassParent     	= "cis_inf_default_rifleman"


[Properties]
UnitType            	= "trooper"

GeometryName        	= "cis_inf_sbdroid"
GeometryLowRes      	= "cis_inf_sbdroid_low1"
SkeletonName      	= "vader"
SkeletonLowRes      	= "vaderlz"

FirstPerson         	= "CIS\cissbdrd;cis_1st_sbdroid"

CollisionHeadOffset = "0.0 -0.2 0.0"
So how can I do this?

Thanks

Need to munge a completely new animation set.

Look for a topic posted by Rends in the Modding section about fixing Aayla's tentacles. Saitek posted a tutorial about munging an animation set, if that is what -_- is referring to. ;)

If you get this working, I should very much like to obtain a copy of the anims.

Actually to give a dark trooper vader's anim doesn't require a new munged anim, just give him vader's like any other unit.

This is a quick step-by-step that Saitek wrote about letting characters with abnormal skeletons use other animations. I used this to give Aayla doublesaber animations, but you should be able to use this to give SBD Vader's animations. You may have to do a little fiddling around to get it to work, but I know eventually it worked for me.

If I did get it working would it have the wrist blaster anime too?

There is a chance it might not. The wrist blaster odf doesnt specify any special anims and has the com_weap_inf_rifle as its class parent, so I think the game subs the anims for those found in the Unit ODF, so long as they exist in the Unit's specified animation. So since the SBD's skeleton is "sbdroid" and the sbdroid anims contains its own rifle animations, they get used in place of the standard rifle anims. The basepose.msh found in each anim set is the skeleton the unit uses. The SBD has a special skeleton to give it huge shoulders and no neck.

Best bet is to use the SBD base pose, and Vaders Walk anims, and all the rifle anims (except the walking ones) from the SBD set.

Prove me wrong though :). I'd much like to see a SBD walk like it really should.
