Revision as of 20:53, 31 August 2009
Upon import, I saw, as promised, that it's pivot points were all at scene origin. The solution I have in mind is to create spheres where the pivots should be, delete the sphere meshes, and attach the respective ID parts. I also observed object groupings which I think don't utilize the 19-part limit very well. I have in mind another arrangement which would allow animated recoil, and a retractable chin gun pod.
I've re-structured it. fused arm parts ('upper' and 'lower' arm segs, and hose), with one axis in mind (minimal up/down rotation). Arm shield above it will be bouncy. Seperated barrels for recoil animation. Fused rear bumper to the main body), which necessitates some re-texturing. I'm attempting this now
Questions:
Can the mesh parts be renamed? It's not necessary, but it'd be nice
Can the hierarchy be changed? I think I've been told it can, but I'm not sure, so I'd like confirmation before committing too much time.
is that '99 youtube video (above) the only Iron Demon reference? I thought I saw it firing it's cannons somewhere. Perhaps it was just a pic. I'm hoping to get an idea of where the pivot points are supposed to be, so im hoping what i saw was another video. i dont recall
I see, in the Second Oni Trailer, @1:25, the Iron Demon has a weapon variant on it's right arm. How do we do this?
