BINA/ONIE: impact effects

Visual guides: weapon, melee, environment

Note about philosophy in here:

These visual guides don't claim be hundred percent right in technical way. I can't look into engine. But they should give a good hint which files are worth to care about and how to debug a mistake: going through all important files, e.g. Could it be that my new texture not registered in TMBD?
However, if you think you should add information or shape this in a more accurate way then do it. =)


overview of involved files when modding ONIE in relation to weapons
if weapon shall have impact effect on environment if weapon shall have impact effect on characters

ONWC-ONIE-AKEV_preview.png

  • weapon fires a particle
  • particle creates a sound and hits textured environment
  • texture’s material name is looked up in TMBD (decals do not work)
  • material file is looked up (can hold parent material)
  • effect is chosen from ONIE by weapon and material
  • if parent material* exists then it is possible that a second effect is lunched
  • ONIE effect leads to a particle and sound file which means the effect (however, sound can be also played from released particle)

* Loser’s material “Explosive” has “Glass” as parent material which shatters objects when hit; this can destroy any object - not just the "glassworld".

ONWC-ONIE-ONCC_preview.png

  • weapon fires a particle
  • particle creates a sound and hits character part
  • character part has an Id (probably through TRIA), Id is sent to CBPM
  • material file is looked up (can hold parent material)
  • effect is chosen from ONIE by weapon and material
  • ONIE effect leads to a particle and sound file which means the effect (however, sound can be also played from released particle)
  • it seems that effects on characters cannot be created through TMBD (still you can see a not working test there called "Character")
  • custom materials can be used for characters in case they are registered in ONIE


overview of involved files when modding ONIE in relation to animations
special attack normal attack

ONCC-ONIE-ONCC_sp-a_TN.png

  • Character performs special attack and shouts attack's name (registered in ONCC).
  • TRAM holds link to ONIA, for example: Eliflash1
  • ONIA holds impact type, for example: <Type>Eli_Super_Kick</Type>
  • Impact file is looked up, data is sent to ONIE.
  • Okay, back to TRAM which hits enemy.
  • Enemy's bone is hit, TRIA is looked up and data sent to CBPM.
  • CBPM checks material, data is sent to ONIE.
  • So, final effect is chosen from impact type and material.
  • Particle and sound becomes released.

ONCC(ONIA) holds special attack modifier information (Any/Light/Medium/Heavy) for ONIE.

Main difference is that ONIA is not used here but CBPI.

Hurt sounds:

So far, I'm not sure how hurt sounds (Light/Medium/Heavy) are chosen to be played.


overview of involved files when modding ONIE in relation to characters
if character hits ground something left ?

ONCC-ONIE-AKEV_preview.png

  • Character hits textured environment.
  • Texture is registered in TMBD and leads to material for ONIE.
  • The bone Id is used for the character's impact.
  • Now actual impact file (Impt) is looked up.
  • Effect (particle and sound) is chosen from impact and the material: trough ONIE.

For example, this is used when running around. Every step will trigger a step sound, different to ground's material: dirt, snow, metal, etc..

ONCC holds impact modifier information (Any/Light/Medium/Heavy) for ONIE.
