HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

This is just a the same ragdoll thing as in my zanzibar. this time around though in addition to the self ragging pistol i made it so the sentinal beam will ragdoll other people and so will plasma grenades. im mostly releasing this becuase i need testers of how well the sentinal beam works against people and how well it works online. I would have a vid with this but due to my dial up i cant.

Edit: here is a vid thanks to T Beezie. It shows off what the mod does for people who dont know what ragdoll is.

what does ragdoll mean

I'll just give you an example. After you die and your body is like a ragdoll, where if it hits something, that body party will move. Like when you throw a real ragdoll against something.

oh and does that seem fun....? i mean it might be but it doesnt sound that fun

I'm confused as to what exactly this does.. And what it is used for.

What it sounds like to me, is almost like a Gmod for Half-Life 2 sort of thing, where you can produce a ragdoll and perhaps pose it or play with it somehow.. but I'm not sure.

Can someone please clarify?

found on wikipedia


Inverse kinematics post-processing: used in Halo, this technique relies on playing a pre-set death animation and then using inverse kinematics to force the character into a possible position after the animation has completed. This means that, during an animation, a character could wind up clipping through world geometry, but after he has come to rest, all of his bones will be in valid space.

^ that's a specific type...

In computer game engines, ragdoll physics are a type of procedural animation that is often used as a replacement for traditional static death animations.

^ literal definition.

so basically sending you into ragdoll would be the same as, say throwing yourself against a wall and the generic reaction of you hitting wall without you interferring physically.

Sounds cool Turk.

if this works well, then it will make juggernaut that much more interesting. also on a side note, going into ragdoll before you get into a vehicle isnt the best idea. it glitches and it froze once on me. The mod is also inteded for pointless fun because it is funny watching yourself plumit from a tall building in ragdoll, or forcing your friend to do so by shooting him the whole way down.

Me and my friends had a glitch on XBC... when my friend hosted with a 1.0 trainer and 1 shot sniper kills dont kill you... he'd shoot me... and id be a ragdoll that jumps around and it looks like your doing a worm..... So im guessing this is like it..

Someone should get pics.

i still say a vid is better, because a pic would just make it look like a dead guy

wait i dont know what a ragdoll is

haha, ok guys. Somebody needs to get a video because some people are clueless to what your talking about. And aparently just telling them isnt enough.

But other then that, good work!
