A while ago I finished the model for the Arm Peewee, but found it hard getting the Renegade engine to accept the custom skeleton and bones. I am now succeeded in getting the Peewee setup as an infantry unit, and working in game.

So far I have only created a running animation for the Peewee, I still need to do all the other animations (strafe, walking, crouching etc etc etc), but it's working in-game, and that's the important thing!

Still needs texturing, but I stuck a few blue patches on the UVW map to give an idea of what it should look like.

He used Fraps and Windows Movie Maker.

I used to play Total Annihilation all the time when I was young. Good game.

Would you be able to create custom animation for cyborgs or jumpjet infantry on Renegade? IF YES, we are interested. Very Happy

Yep, not the best video editing tools out there but quick and easy to use.

Well tbh with the animations I simply loaded the default running animation from always.dat into W3D Viewer and went through frame by frame approximating the movements with the peewee, adjusting for the short upper leg and large feet.

By no means am I an expert in animation, but if you want I will give it a shot. Took me about an hour and a half to do that running animation, but with practice I am sure I could work faster.

We have some gods of animation cnc reborn staff so if you work with them, we could have something perfect...

(I am also thinking about that for Red Alert APB, imagine a jacket not static when running... Possibilities are huge.)

ah, so what you really want to know is how to get a custom skeleton working in-game with infantry units. Well I would be happy to share that information, and yes, things such as moving jackets and such would certainly be possible, as you can have any number of bones. Using W3D Skin on a jacket would make for some really nice movement I think Thumbs Up
