Maybe I should try this Spring animation exporter for Blender, it surely looks promising.

Here, have a version without the disturbing avatar then.

Please stop using that map to make bar vids. The map's lighting is terrible and washes out any possible contrast, so it all ends up looking like reddish tinted blobs.

Is there a version without the spray tan lighting?

Journeyman Energystorage .. for lack of a better word "building"

Is that a point you are trying to make? NullEnergiePunkt is reached.

Nice! I like it a lot

Smoth, Cubex is still at production-start and this units could really use your material system..

I've decided to post some stuff i was making previous month as an excuse to defrost it and resume.

This is the blender render of my full-body-walk animation, which will be used when the unit uses walk gait and is otherwise idle (i.e, it's not walking and chopping at the same time).

It's also kinda the first walkcycle i've ever made, not counting previous iterations of the same and pixel stuffs.

Run gait will only have special attacks ((with animstates that fully assume control of unit; you can't MAEK_FATALITY and walk somewhere at the same time) and won't have separate full/partial cycles.

Dunno if also having any crouch/stealth gait makes sense. Maybe it will only cloak when using stealth gait.

I'll do a vid of the same anim in spring (where it'll lose the bezier ipo) today-tomorrow for comparison.

How will you do walk & shoot then? Any way of using animation blending?

Walk+Attack will use a toned down version of this animation that only affects leg and pelvis, attack moves for walk stance will use animations that only affect anything above torso. Blender keyframes are stored per-object, and export script is smart enough to only use what's necessary in most cases.

Needless to say they will be rather simplistic, and anything more out of the ordinary will still fallback to full-control state (forcing the unit to stop).

I have no idea how (else) to make blending work using LUS and i'm not delving into implementing an assimp animation handler anytime soon.

Looks good!

The same stuff getting ingame:

Remember that bug about how sometimes the previous unfinished animation won't end?

Looks good!

FWIW don't have any such problems in MCL walkscripts... whats your motion control 'framework' like?

Though tbf MCL has a huge advantage in that torso/arm/aiming anims are 100% independent of leg anims, still I believe any 'doesn't finish the previous anim when I want it to' issues can be fixed

spline based ? Also will you grow them out of the ground?
