collisionjoints physbox collapsing in the center of model.

[Darth_Biomech]

Weird bug. In modelviever physbox is correct:


In game its not.


QC is following

Code: Select all

$cd ".\"

Model inserted in game via prop_dynamic.

weird but cant you just do another trick disable the collision on the model and use a player clip textured brush to fake the collision mesh?? and how much convex parts does your collision model have??

[joe_dirt976]

so if it uses collisionjoints it's animated. Make sure you use a logic_auto to set the prop_dynamic to the animation you wish to use.
IE:
onmapspawn
prop_dynamic_name_here
setanimation
ganador_landed

Woops, wrong thread.

Nah, it doesent work. Even if I set active takeoff animation, physchunks is still in the center and not moving.

[joe_dirt976]

would you mind pm'ing a link? I would like to take a look at it and see if there is anything i can do to help you.

[Darth_Biomech]

I sent you PM, but you dont answer...

Isn't there usually more variables in a collisionjoints string? Can you set the bones hierarchy manually in the .qc? Have you rigged both the ref and the phys meshes with the same armature? Are all the bones parented properly in your modeling program? Perhaps you should make it a ragdoll and limit all the bones at 0 deformation? Are there any redundant commands you can get rid of? Like $hboxset, $cd .\, (dunno what they are) $opaque, $surfaceprop (you can set those in the .vmt).

None of those will probably solve your dilemma, its a complicated model and is bound to have errors, but perhaps they'll serve as food for thought? Nice model, btw.

Yes, but arent they for model with physic interact with world?

I think, I have ben seen strings like that long ago, but Im not sure...

Yes.

Of cource.

Perhaps you should make it a ragdoll and limit all the bones at 0 deformation?

Maybe i try it, but other model that i tried set to have non-convex phys almost same way, caused crush of the game. ^^"

$cd is required to tell QC where are all the stuff, and $opague is required for correct model rendering, AFAIK.

None of those will probably solve your dilemma, its a complicated model and is bound to have errors, but perhaps they'll serve as food for thought? Nice model, btw.

Thanks) (I have more complicated models, characters... They are work just fine. =( )
