:Hey Geyser
[[TestToo]]
:I sent you an email last week, perhaps you didn't get it.
:I was wondering if you have time to take a look at the key binding issue with the OSX version of Oni where the RETURN and ENTER keys are disabled.
:I've tried looking for the lookup table, but with no success.
:Hope you are well,

No idea which part of the page to leave new messages in, but I guess this will do. You wrote [[Special:PermaLink/9550|HERE]], "All 3 guns have been modeled by 17secs and are available as low-poly OBJ." Do you know where they are? I've attempted to browse your FTP directories, but it's difficult with that placeholder image at the top of your subdomain blocking a top-level perusal of available directories. Thanks. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] ([[User talk:Iritscen|talk]]) 22:08, 13 April 2019 (CEST)
:I've just turned twenty-f##king-six, and I'm in deep s##t.
:I don't think I ever uploaded those guns on my FTP, and I lost all my Oni files from the time when I wrote that comment. If no one else backed up the models, then there's no way but to remodel them (except the SPAS, for which there are plenty of models available already).

:Your mail got lost in a heap of spam :
:::Now that I think of it, 17secs may have sent me the models through email, in that case I might be able to recover them. He also may have shared them through OCF, in which case they might have been lost during the move. Looking through 17secs's emails could take a while. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 20:22, 6 January 2020 (CET)
::I may discontine the email address @oni2.net altogether in the near future.
::::Actually, no, that was fast. No trace of attached model files in my emails. And if he gave me URLs, they're probably dead by now. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 20:27, 6 January 2020 (CET)
:::There's still the other one I may have told you of.
:I've checked out the last version of KP :
::definitely a kick-ass proof of concept already,
:::but there's still much room for improvement.
:Converters between FBX, SE3 and Oni are mostly planned out,
::I just need to find myself with a free week or something
:::to actively code and debug it (easy to wish for, hard to get)
:Dunno what Ky4yM is up for with his Java-based model/anim exporter
::(like, what formats he'll interface with, when and if...)
:I'll just try and document the way everything is stored
::(basically just writing up Pierre's extracting code
:::in a human-readable way (thanks Pierre, BTW! ))
:That would be my 2 cents for now,
::active Oni 2 development will have to wait.
:As for the key binding that OMNI screwed up and won't fix :
::it's motivating to fix it up, but I can only succeed
:::if the table looks very much like the one on PC.
::(I may even have to read up on Mac hardware a bit...)
:If I come around to fix it, you'll be the first to know.

I can see you have your hands full, lots of projects and things to do.
:22:52, 23 August 2018 (CEST) Started filling in tips and tricks about [[MakeHuman]] and [[Fuse]]. The current focus is on Fuse because it's user-friendlier. MakeHuman has potential, but it's on a bit of a standby.  
I'm finding out more Mac Users are playing around with the Dev Mode and that's cool.
:18:40, 20 June 2018 (CEST) Making a [[User_talk:Geyser/IonEyes|new page]] for bookmarks related to the iOnEyEs project (will probably be creating Oni2:Ion_Eyes soon)

Regarding the keybinding issue, can you make a screenshot of the PC lookup table, perhaps that could give me a clue.
Something for me to try, until you have the time.


I know the "Mac version of Oni sucks" :-)


In the meantime, I've been having fun at the Oni Central Forums with the "Going places you are not supposed to" and "Trivia" threads.
: 13:50, 22 May 2018 (CEST) need to clean up old stuff, or at least make sure it's not misinterpreted as current stuff
: 13:50, 22 May 2018 (CEST) backing up [[User talk:Geyser/DoxProjectImagoTalkBackup|a talk page about modding from 'Dox's personal space]]


Take care, don't let your age get you down. (This coming from a guy much older than you!)

:Gee, how "much older" can ''you'' be? ^^
And, we're back! More stuff here and elsewhere Soon(TM), mostly from me and GTO.
:It's not my age that's getting me down,
:Mostly? Will there be few works by others (a third/fourth person) too? - 'dox
::but my lousy survival skills (sorta).
::Not sure about "works", but our "thing" is a work-in-progress, and it will be open to anybody's contributions. If I have enough time for 3D modeling, we may see something from Ltemplar, if he hasn't given up on me or Oni. That guy has some serious skills. [[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 18:00, 17 October 2014 (CEST)
:I'm having big trouble concentrating
:Haven't seen Ltemplar in a while on OCF. My impression is that he is frustated about the engine's limitations which in turn eats his motivation. I guess we all have a taste of that. But you are the one in contact with him so I probably miss some pieces of that picture. - 'dox
::on my professional life, even when
::We'll see about Ltemplar (maybe I'm the one who disappointed him the most, by failing to keep up with him, and I have yet to get back in touch). As for the graphical/storytelling thing, I'm calling it a "thing" because that's what it is. Basically we're trying our hand at a sequel, but the key word here is "trying", and it's quite rudimentary so far. Calling it anything special at this point, even giving it a working title, would be bad luck ^_^ which doesn't mean we're not enthusiastic and a little bit proud [[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 22:36, 17 October 2014 (CEST)

Got back in contact with Ltemplar. He's willing and available (as much as anybody, i.e., with his own RL stuff to take care of). The direction and focus will need to be managed very carefully this time around, but apart from that we're good to go. Will probably upload some art/sketches next. [[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 19:31, 23 October 2014 (CEST)

::my last post (two months ago? more?)
::They're two different thingies. GTO and I are exploring the idea of a sequel (with detailed character design, some scenes, etc - essentially like what Guido and Seventeen Seconds did); the collaboration with Ltemplar is focused on more or less immediate Oni modification (extra levels, BGi faction, etc). In both cases we'll try and deliver on a (very) small scale first. [[User:Geyser|geyser]] ([[User talk:Geyser|talk]]) 11:13, 5 November 2014 (CET)

How old am I?  Have you seen my avatar?  :-) Well maybe not that old...
 
Professional life... balancing it with hobbies can be hard.
The solution is to have a 30 hour day, then you'll have enough time for everything. :-)
 
When you need to have the new OTA core tested on the Mac, let me know.
 
I got the email from the Mac OTA fan, he was trying to run the manplant script.  I never got around to fixing it.
So I just pointed him to the scripts on my site and that's the last I heard from him.
 
On OCF, we're doing silly but fun things, I just started a thread to find hidden rooms in the various levels and post screenshots of them.
As you know some of those rooms where used for cutscenes, but othere are just there.
 
So Oni never gets old, there's always something new to do.
 
What! you mean at work they won't let you play????
 
I really appreciate your willingness to help with the Mac key binding issue.
 
EdT
 
P.S. how do you get the date stamp on your entries?
----

:Hm, I sorta assumed you were one of the younger Oni fans ^^
:Clean slate again. If you need to look something up, just use the history.
::Didn't expect anyone much older than myself, anyway.
:An exception has been made for the latest discussion. I've put it [[User:Geyser/STFUn00b|HERE]].
:(I know of a few exceptions, like Pierre, but I think they're rather rare)
:Because I can, and because it really holds a special place in my heart.
:I'm afraid I'll have to make an all different OTA core for you rebels, ^^
::because my kick-ass functionality uses '''chr_focus''' a lot.
:(basically, you focus to a remote "meta-character" every time you call up the menu)
:Another limitation is that on PC we can watch '''show_performance''' and on Mac, we can't.
::(calling up the menu with that built-in hotkey feels really good)
:The '''show_performance'''-toggled menu is aimed at those who won't use the DevMode.
::For those who will... we'll have to decide on what dev-mode variable we'll watch.
:We should have a look at the few variables that are registered on the Mac (e.g., [[OSL:Preset#Variables|HERE]])
::and see which ones we can toggle with a dev-mode hotkey (hopefully '''ai2_showlocalmelee''').
::(you have to be careful about how you check on the state of a preset variable, though)
::(on PC, at least, I got quite a headache before I got '''show_performance''' to work)
:BTW, the functions are still underdocumented: [[Sandbox|HERE]] ^^
:Oni never gets old: that's good to hear
::(even if I don't think any of the hidden rooms would be much news to me ^^ )
:As for the messed-up ENTER key, I'll really have to figure out ''just what to look for'', first.

Oh well, I guess I can't enjoy the new OTA core until I get a new computer, probably sometime early next year.

Loser posted his melee patch on OCF, right now its for the striker_easy, but he intends to do more.  
===Reply to "Recent changes" comments===
Thanks for deleting the spam. Could I suggest https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/ for human verification, it looks quite good and I think it has a mediawiki module. As for multiplayer, my computer was out of action in the past week and I had exams and schoolwork in the weeks before, so not much progress has been made. I do have the framework for a multithreaded server though and I heard Sfeli was doing something C-Daodan related but he hasn't been online for a while.
:[[User:RossyMiles|rossy]] 09:20, 27 November 2008 (CET)


What's nice is that the patch works fine on the Mac.
Sorry, not sure where to put this question.  Regarding the Hex Hound, how would you animate it within Oni?  EdT


[[User:EdT|EdT]] 04:56, 30 November 2006 (CET)
:*It should be relative easy for you guys to split him to 19 bones.
----
:*A field of little practical experience is the TRIA stuff. However, from an [[TRIA#Investigation|experiment]] we know that TRIA has really an effect on how TRAM files are played. All TRBS have their own TRIA instance and with Onisplit v0.9.41.0 you can still access it as plain text. Looks like there is a fair chance for a playable hex hound. =)
:OMG, people are so spoiled... Did I have the console to help me do Oni Menu? ^^
::[[User:Paradox-01|Paradox-01]] 13:52, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
:RETURN doesn't work, but other dev mode hotkeys do, and that's all you need...
:In order to actually know if they're detectable, you still have to actually script
::load-time logic by hand : variable-watching forks, for one thing.
:So the console doesn't really enter into it.
:Unfortunately, I've done a bit of testing, and it looks like Ctrl+B
::doesn't correspond to any script variable (I hoped for '''ai2_showlocalmelee''')
:That leaves cheatcode watching as the only alternative to direct hotkeys
::(and autocompletion-powered console entries if we can fix RETURN)
:Everyone should play Oni on PC, anyway.

:Like, I sat down and wrote a Rail Gun mode last night, that will only work on PC.
::(crouching with a rifle makes you zoom in till you see the other end of the map)
:It really rocks, but right now the plasma rifle is a lot more enjoyable than the MB
::(I should add a long-range laser sight to the MB, and that means patched ONWC...)
:It rocks so much it ''really'' makes me want to make a few squad missions.
::(every member of the squad has special weapons and faculties : X-ray vision, sniper sight, reflex time, etc)
:You can have none of that on Mac, because '''chr_focus''' is not registered.
::(the Rail Gun mode relies on camera parameters ('''cm_...''') and '''gs_fov_set''')
::[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 17:55, 30 November 2006 (CET)
:Loser's patch is good news (of course it works fine...).

:Rail Gun mode sounds cool!
:Hopefully early next year, I'll get an Intel Mac with XP, then I'll be able to enjoy Oni fully.
:In the meantime, there's enough to do to keep me busy.
:So keep coming up with new ways to play Oni!!!
::[[User:EdT|EdT]] 00:05, 1 December 2006 (CET)


:The Hound is one of those things that I'd definitely ''not'' implement into Oni's engine, the main reason being stairs. Congratulations to Dox on the proof-of-concept though.
:However, I guess it would be OK if the Hounds, like the Iron Demon, were only encountered in stair-less environments, with curbs or nearly horizontal ramps if anything.
:I am not up-to-date on OniSplit's handling of animation. Seeing as Totoro was intended for bipeds, all workarounds would be somewhat hackish. I'd say do the Demon first.

:Thanks for the flag URL.  I missed the update :-)
:Once I get an IntelMac, hopefully early next year, I'll be able to play the PC version.
:I plan on getting XP loaded through Bootcamp, so I can use it without any emulation.
:I appreciate your effort to solve the keybinding issue, I guess the only hope is that either Take2 or Feral will decide to update Oni for the Intel Mac and fix the bugs.
:The Mac does not have the quote glitch that you mentioned. (Hey finally something the Mac got right!!!)
:When you have a chance, can you post a movie of the Rail Gun mode?
[[User:EdT|EdT]] 04:33, 14 December 2006 (CET)
 
:The advantage of emulated environments is that you don't need to buy/borrow/steal Windows at all.
:Alloc plays Oni under Linux, with wine, and it works OK. So does OUP.
:As Feral said, Take 2 are the exclusive owners of the Oni franchise (Rockstar and Feral are just borrowing it ^^).
::Therefore, it's up to Take2 to decide (financially) whether, e.g., Oni's source should be distributed or not.
:::However, what we've seen of Take 2 so far doesn't leave much hope in that matter.
::I'm sure they have their reasons (actually, rather a lack thereof).
 
:The release of patches is a different story. It depends on what exactly the patch is supposed to "fix".
::The network and dev mode were left out ''intentionally'', so one shouldn't expect an official patch for those.
:Actual bugs such as [[Troubleshooting/Blam|Blam]] we somehow think "ought to be fixed".
::We know, however, that Ian suggested to de-Blam Oni ''way'' back in 2000 (not sure about the year).
:::And got no reply.
 
:As for erroneous key mapping, mousebutton3 mismapped to SHIFT, or a non-mapped mouse wheel are one thing.
::Getting those right allows one to customise one's controls and to enhance one's "normal" Oni experience.
:The ENTER key screwed up by OMNI is a completely different thing.
::No one will bind ENTER to a normal-gameplay event. It will only serve for the Developer Mode.
:::And that's where it might hurt...
 
:Politically, I fear that releasing a patch at this stage would mean to acknowledge the die-hard community,
::''along with what that community has been doing'' (hacking, reverse-engineering, resource extracting...).
:That sounds like a pretty good reason for the bureaucrats involved not to do ''anything''. Just to be on the safe side.
::I think those considerations ought to be kept in mind when contacting Take2 or whoever: we're licence violators.
 
:I might release the script for the Rail Gun Mode some time soon. And a little video just for you Mac-haxxors ^^.
::You can view WMVs, can't you?
:As for '''Storming the Rooftops''', make it 1:50 to Mukade with the original scripts, bar the cutscenes.
:(I played Loser's script, and Mukade is ''way'' slow, especially on SP1, where you can outrun him by miles)
 
:Here's something worth a thread on {{OCF}} (and maybe another video by you, hmm?)
::[http://forums.bungie.org/story/?noframes;read=49733 ONI IN SE7EN MINUTES]

:Geyser: Lots of things to talk about.
:For "Storming the Rooftops", how about using ssg's nocutscene script and adding a 2:00 minute countdown timer?
:Of course, if I use the jetpack mode, I should have no problem finishing it under that time limit! :-)
 
:Stamina Rose video, sounds like a cool idea. 
:Youtube wants the video in 320x240 format.
 
:Regarding Feral, :I asked about the possibility of making a special edition of Oni with the missing levels and multiplayer feature. And making it compatible with the Intel Macs and fixing the known issues, such as the RETURN key. Here is part of their reply to me
:''if the opportunity arises that we can make an Intel patch we would, however if we added in all of those features I think it would be a pay for patch although the cost would be a lot lower than for a traditional full game. Don't hold your breath waiting for a patch but as I said if we can get all the potential issues out the way and it makes sense to do so we will make a patch.''
 
:There is no free version of Wine for the Mac, only a commerical version called Crossover. Anyways, since I need some Windows programs for work, it makes sense for me to get XP.
 
: The 1 minute Oni was funny, I'll post the link on OCF.
 
:Did you mean another video like Oni Universe except make the cutscenes shorter?  If so, I am working on another version, it has more cutscenes added, but its hard to match the scenes with the beat of the music. I found the actual music video for Inner Universe http://youtube.com/watch?v=svWHGTMyWt8
 
:That's all for now.

:The mail from Feral sounds nice. Looks like nagging pays off after all... We shall see.
 
:You should check out [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwine Darwine] rather than CrossOver. There are issues, but it's definitely not commercial...
 
:I've timed the thing yesterday. SP1 to SP4 is ''just'' feasible in 2:45, all cutscenes included.
:So I'd leave the original zipline sounds for the intro, and start the music at SP1.
 
:If you're serious about "Storming the Rooftops" on a regular basis (that's awesome movement training, sure)...
:I'd take Loser's script as a basis, rather than ssg's, because setting up Mukade is more work than bypassing cutscenes...
:As for the timer: time limits are frustrating (''Loser's script is frustrating''), so I won't be doing this.
:What I have right now is a nice trainer script with the time (minutes, seconds, tenths) '''dmsg'''ed in a column.
:The difference with the timer is that it's not a countdown: just the time since you started the SP.
:I can pause the counter during cutscenes (whereas the built-in timer can't be paused).
:I can reset the counter (and call '''restore_game''') with certain animations. Flailing resets, too.
:Apart from that, I'm invincible, and there are no AI. So I can train for speed with a 100% clear path.
:It would be exactly the same with the level logic on: no time limit; time ''bonuses'', maybe (hypos?).
 
:My best times right now are 0:40 from SP1 to the 1st elevator, 0:50 from SP2 to the zipline, and 0:20 from SP3 to the 2nd elevator.
:That fits perfectly with '''Stamina Rose''' (with all the musical movements of the track, strong beats etc).
 
:As for the "1 minute Oni" video, I meant exactly the "filmlets" suggested by Mango. Sorta like [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_vs._Blue Red VS Blue]...
:As for your "shorter" storyline video, I might have a few suggestions about syncing.
::(make Konoko dive into the acid and land in front of Griffin's office, all in one movement)
:Point is, if such a collaboration is OK with you, perhaps it would makes sense to
::lay out the timeline of a Hi-Q video here on the wiki, and open it to suggestions on {{OCF}}...
:Another ass-kicking video I had in mind (it's itching, it's itching...) would be set to Rob Zombie's Superbeast.
::A little bit in-your-face, but well-fit to illustrate the more badass side of Oni: boss fights.
:Barabas, Mukade, Mutant Muro, and more generally, the violent side of the Daodan
:"Yeah-hey, I'm the one that you wanted, yeah-hey, I'm your super beast" (Konoko disarming Griffin)

:Thanks for the the tip about Konoko diving in acid/landing at office, it looks great!
:I think it would be fun to make a collaboration of Stamina Rose.
:Can you post the Rooftops Trainer script.
:Regarding Darwine, a known flaw is ''Darwine doesn't have working sound at this time'', that would spoil the fun of Oni :-)
:Care to share who Mukade is?  Or you could post that question on OCF "Who is Mukade?"

==This is getting long...==
;May comment out or delete some of the older stuff...
:About Darwine: the lack of sound is a well-known flaw indeed... But.
:I thought you were beyond that: I frequently "play" Oni with no sound ^^
 
:About Mukade: the Mukade=Hasegawa theory is controversial but pretty obvious.
:I've elaborated that theory in great detail on the ASFO2 thread.
:My more recent revelation was somewhat more cynical :
::He'd be Marathon's Security Officer AKA Halo's Master Chief ^^

:"Take 2", eh? Nice one... ^^
:I can't make any specific suggestions if I can't see anything specific.
:For one thing, I don't know if you mean to keep the order chronological.
:More dynamic splicing of the cutscenes is a general request: you have that covered.
:Another "tip" would be to fit some scenes to the English/Russian lyrics.
:(but that basically supposes a largely non-chronological reshuffle)
:More generally, telling Oni's story in a linear way, to some soundtrack or another, is rather limited.
:Even if you shuffle them. Watching the same cutscenes over and over... the déjà vu is inevitable.
 
:Massively scripted and hacked videos... that's something different.
:I'm willing to provide scripts and binaries for "revolutionary" videos.
:So revolutionary they'll look like Oni 2 trailers ^^. Your call.
 
:If you don't care about the tenth-of-a-second precision,
:the trainer script can be modified as follows:
var float time=0.;
func main {
    invincible=1
    fork TickTockReset
    fork TickTock
}
func TickTockReset {
    restore_game(); ai2_kill(); time= 0;
    chr_wait_animation 0 KONOKOjump_flail KONOKOrun_bk_1stepa KONCOMrun_bk_1stepa
    sleep 13; fork TickTockReset
}
func TickTock {
    dmsg " "
    sleep 6
    time= time + 0.1;
    if(time > 3600.) time= 0.
    timer_start(time);
    fork TickTock
}
:The advantage is that when you pause the game, the (frozen) timer will remain visible.
 
:Concerning Mukade, suitable actors would make the list too long if I added them.
:Motoko is already there, sorta. "askaninja" sounds weird.

TestToo

No idea which part of the page to leave new messages in, but I guess this will do. You wrote HERE, "All 3 guns have been modeled by 17secs and are available as low-poly OBJ." Do you know where they are? I've attempted to browse your FTP directories, but it's difficult with that placeholder image at the top of your subdomain blocking a top-level perusal of available directories. Thanks. --Iritscen (talk) 22:08, 13 April 2019 (CEST)

I don't think I ever uploaded those guns on my FTP, and I lost all my Oni files from the time when I wrote that comment. If no one else backed up the models, then there's no way but to remodel them (except the SPAS, for which there are plenty of models available already). geyser (talk) 17:54, 6 January 2020 (CET)
Ah, oh well. We have similar enough models to these three, available as part of the "New Weapons Collection" mod. --Iritscen (talk) 18:01, 6 January 2020 (CET)
Now that I think of it, 17secs may have sent me the models through email, in that case I might be able to recover them. He also may have shared them through OCF, in which case they might have been lost during the move. Looking through 17secs's emails could take a while. --geyser (talk) 20:22, 6 January 2020 (CET)
Actually, no, that was fast. No trace of attached model files in my emails. And if he gave me URLs, they're probably dead by now. --geyser (talk) 20:27, 6 January 2020 (CET)

13:50, 22 May 2018 (CEST) need to clean up old stuff, or at least make sure it's not misinterpreted as current stuff
13:50, 22 May 2018 (CEST) backing up a talk page about modding from 'Dox's personal space

And, we're back! More stuff here and elsewhere Soon(TM), mostly from me and GTO.

Mostly? Will there be few works by others (a third/fourth person) too? - 'dox
Not sure about "works", but our "thing" is a work-in-progress, and it will be open to anybody's contributions. If I have enough time for 3D modeling, we may see something from Ltemplar, if he hasn't given up on me or Oni. That guy has some serious skills. geyser (talk) 18:00, 17 October 2014 (CEST)
Haven't seen Ltemplar in a while on OCF. My impression is that he is frustated about the engine's limitations which in turn eats his motivation. I guess we all have a taste of that. But you are the one in contact with him so I probably miss some pieces of that picture. - 'dox
We'll see about Ltemplar (maybe I'm the one who disappointed him the most, by failing to keep up with him, and I have yet to get back in touch). As for the graphical/storytelling thing, I'm calling it a "thing" because that's what it is. Basically we're trying our hand at a sequel, but the key word here is "trying", and it's quite rudimentary so far. Calling it anything special at this point, even giving it a working title, would be bad luck ^_^ which doesn't mean we're not enthusiastic and a little bit proud geyser (talk) 22:36, 17 October 2014 (CEST)
Oh, you're still alive :) You were even more retired than me for a while there. Gumby (talk) 00:44, 18 October 2014 (CEST)

Got back in contact with Ltemplar. He's willing and available (as much as anybody, i.e., with his own RL stuff to take care of). The direction and focus will need to be managed very carefully this time around, but apart from that we're good to go. Will probably upload some art/sketches next. geyser (talk) 19:31, 23 October 2014 (CEST)

Just to be clear. Is Ltemplar participating your/GTOs thing. Or are you talking about two different things? --paradox-01 (talk) 10:29, 26 October 2014 (CET)
They're two different thingies. GTO and I are exploring the idea of a sequel (with detailed character design, some scenes, etc - essentially like what Guido and Seventeen Seconds did); the collaboration with Ltemplar is focused on more or less immediate Oni modification (extra levels, BGi faction, etc). In both cases we'll try and deliver on a (very) small scale first. geyser (talk) 11:13, 5 November 2014 (CET)
Clean slate again. If you need to look something up, just use the history.
An exception has been made for the latest discussion. I've put it HERE.
Because I can, and because it really holds a special place in my heart.
Until further notice, this is no longer a "talk" page. But you can still leave messages.

As in "Dr. Crane isn't here right now, but if you would like to make an appointment..."

Thanks for deleting the spam. Could I suggest https://www.google.com/recaptcha/about/ for human verification, it looks quite good and I think it has a mediawiki module. As for multiplayer, my computer was out of action in the past week and I had exams and schoolwork in the weeks before, so not much progress has been made. I do have the framework for a multithreaded server though and I heard Sfeli was doing something C-Daodan related but he hasn't been online for a while.

Sorry, not sure where to put this question. Regarding the Hex Hound, how would you animate it within Oni? EdT

  • It should be relative easy for you guys to split him to 19 bones.
  • A field of little practical experience is the TRIA stuff. However, from an experiment we know that TRIA has really an effect on how TRAM files are played. All TRBS have their own TRIA instance and with Onisplit v0.9.41.0 you can still access it as plain text. Looks like there is a fair chance for a playable hex hound. =)
Paradox-01 13:52, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
The Hound is one of those things that I'd definitely not implement into Oni's engine, the main reason being stairs. Congratulations to Dox on the proof-of-concept though.
However, I guess it would be OK if the Hounds, like the Iron Demon, were only encountered in stair-less environments, with curbs or nearly horizontal ramps if anything.
I am not up-to-date on OniSplit's handling of animation. Seeing as Totoro was intended for bipeds, all workarounds would be somewhat hackish. I'd say do the Demon first.
