yeah they got the things walking and a very good job they did of it. However if you have seen any of there prieview videos of the walking unit you will see that there always walking. As of yet there is no way to overcom it. Maybe there will be a script developed to overcome this if its possible.

Yes killa, You make the animation in renx, but the issue is it will repeat the animation, never stopping. There has been some posts that havoc asked about walking... but it can't be stopped, you will end up with a Mech that walks in place. But it still looks so cool! ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)

If Set_Animation and Set_Animation_Frame worked in MP, it might be possible. But they dont ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Well if Set_Animation and Set_Animation_Frame worked in MP, I would do just that (make a script for walkers, mechs etc)

ooh.
By the way johnathan, did you read that post I made in the other thread? I was wondering if someone has/could make a script where object patrols waypath and moves to collide with target, untill either target is destroyed or moves to far from waypath.
Is that described well?

What about a vehicle? The wheels stop spinning when you stop.. why can't the legs of a mech stop?

cant you script the animation to start when player gets in (or presses forward?) and then stop when he gets out (or hits crouch or something?)

I just record it to my VCR, then play it back into my computer and edit it there. It will cost you 70 dollars my way.

Yeah you need a graphics card with VIVO (Video In - Video Out) then a VCR to record it. This is not the best quality though. Alternativly you need 2 PC's one with a grahics card supporting Video out (runs renegade) and the second one to have a video input to record it.

Snag It will do the job you need a fairly fast computer to do this tough with Snag It you record everything that happens on the screen and contary to popular beleif you can record sound. You can get it here at Techsmith. I would recommend asking djlaptop he has made some goos movies over at Beacon Pedestal ...
