Title: Free Fall Animation
Post by: strike277 on 22 Nov 2007, 18:18:25

I've been looking for the free fall animation used by sincover in his "Blood of my Brother" trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jIZhi3qzM8
But I'm unable to find any info on it. Could some one please point me in the right direction?

thanks
Strike

That animation is for when the chute is open. The one I'm looking for looks like a free fall.

I don't know where they found this position with a large angle of open arms.

Try first this one:

_unit switchmove "AmovPpneMstpSnonWnonDnon"

If you're really unsatisfied or if you want to keep the "para_pilot" position, you'll have to change vectorUp. Using a vertical position like "para_pilot" and changing the vectorUp gives a best 1st person view during the fall so try to insert this to your script:

Code: [Select]

_inclin = -10;// change this to get different inclinations
_dir = direction _unit;
_InitUp = vectorUp _unit;
_InitUpA = _InitUp Select 1;
_InitUpB = ((Sin _inclin)*(_InitUp Select 0))+((Cos _inclin)*(_InitUp Select 2));
_InitUpC = ((Cos _inclin)*(_InitUp Select 0))-((Sin _inclin)*(_InitUp Select 2));
_unit setVectorUp [((Cos _dir)*(_InitUpA))+((Sin _dir)*(_InitUpB)),-((Sin _dir)*(_InitUpA))+((Cos _dir)*(_InitUpB)),(_InitUpC)];
Be carefull "// comments" will return error if copy/paste to a .sqs file !

Enjoy !
