Military parade Created 20 years ago2004-01-29 09:47:52 UTC by Vassy

I'm making an opfor map pack, and it starts off with a big parade (With Blackadder Goes Forth music!). However, I was just wondering, how would I get three rows of fgrunts/recruits/blackops etc. to walk forward at the same time? I was thinking of scripted sequences, but wouldn't the front row get in the way? Would the front row march forward, then the second row, then the third? I want them all to leave at the same time and stop at the same time. Also, there will be a person in front of each section, so they might get in the way as well...

BTW, does anyone know if the recruits and drill instructors have the same skeletons? I want to give the drill instructor a saluting animation. And does gman have the same skeleton? That would be even more convenient...

for the skeletons, chek hlmv(halflife model viewer)

and for the parade, give everygrunt a own scripted sequence, so you would have a lot of ss(scripted sequence) to make em move and don use to much grunts, high r_speeds

A scripted sequence should work! Just tick the override AI flag! I'm not sure about the skeletons though!

No, I know a script will work, but will the people performing the scripts in front get in the way of the people behind?

Try it with one rank (column for you civvies).

But the whole point is that there are three ranks...plus a major at the front and a captain behind him.

It just won't be the same without 3 ranks.

I mean just an experiment!

Like this:

c

g
g
g

m

instead of

c
ggg
ggg
ggg

m

It'll look odd. Maybe the rows WILL work though. I was just asking if they might get in the way. The formation is:

m

c

ggggggg
ggggggg
ggggggg

This conversation is getting very confused.

I was suggesting that you only did one column as a test in order to see whether the one in front would get in the way of the one behind.

give them all the same sequence shared and give them the walk animation

Ah, I get it, seventh! Thanks.
