Animation
Oni has a very complex animation system (500 anims per character on the average). Without a little bit of organization, it would have been an awful mess (I mean, even more awful than it is now).
Animation
Body
The great majority of animations define the relative orientations of the 19 bones at keyframes (keyframes for different bones are not simultaneous).
Overlay
A few animations define orientations in "another way". Instead of 6 bytes (3 quantized Euler angles), 16 bytes are used (a quaternion).
State
Transitions
Type
A few anim types are not used in Oni.
There are much more types than states : they define transitions at a finer level.
Collections
A lot of animations (basic movement) is shared between many characters. To avoid duplicating anim links, anims are organized in collections called TRAC (Totoro Animation Collection). For information about the binary storage of a TRAC, see HERE
- A TRAC does two things
- it can inherit another TRAC
- it can specify new anims (either replacing anims of the parent TRAC, or complementing it)
Inheritance
Oni's TRACs are organized along the following trees :
- Notes
- append _animations.TRAC to everything to get the filename
- click on the collection name to see an overview of the animations
- (I'll be updating those with states and types etc)
