animation problems Created 12 years ago2011-09-05 11:55:27 UTC by platoon

hello again,

I'm wondered about animations, so i did a new animation test
i did new 3 animation for gman,
the scene is about gordon freeman finally catch gman and kill him

animation 1 (endmove): gman see freeman and run to survive, but he cant escape and fall down to the floor
animation 2 (endstay): look and wait
scenex1: 2 grunts try rescue the gman
animation 3 (enddie): gman dies with .357mm bullet
scenex2: freeman kill everyone (LOL)

this is fun to play with models but i cant make it work with valve hammer editor

the problem is changing animations,
when gman start animation 2 or animation 3, he is standing idle for 1 second but i want him to do it instantly
you will understand what i mean if you try it;..

(note: im included backup file of gman)

if anybody can help me it will be appreciated.

You might have to settle for combining all of the animations into one and just use one scripted_sequence for the whole thing.
A new scripted_sequence forces any prior animations to stop, causing a short pause IIRC.

What how will you assign more animations than 1 with only 1 scripted_sequence that sounds impossible. Is there really another way? If yes I don't know it yet how does it work?

soup miner
but i want him go to die animation when i shoot him,
is there any way for that?

maybe i can use another gman, over there and use env_render entity to hide him
but i think first gman will be stay idle whatever i do..

23-down
he is talking about compiling model with 3 animations together

Ah ok..

And yes when the Gman falls out of the window and the player looses eye contact with him simply replace with with a clone. Probably the best thing to do.

i did it,
after all of that hours i did it
you can check changes, worked for make it looks good much

used 3 gman with lots of scripts but its work fine now

Good that you figured it out...I've tested it and it's nicely done.. Just pity that it is a SD Gman model but who cares.

well i am always use original half-life files (expect self-made files)
