Bipd conversion weapon placement.

Post by Rockymods »

I searched this and couldn't find anything.

Bipd conversions are now the most simple of things to do. But the part that is not simple is fixing it. For one most conversions will have a weapon placement problem which is what I am having trouble with. I made the flood_elite into a map but it holds its weapon in its stomach. Any possible help is greatly appreciated!

-Offtopic, since my signature was to big it got taken off, can I take out the text saying that it was to big and put a correct sig in?

the problem is real simple to fix. It has to do with teh fact that you are placing the hlmt over the elite and and a few markers dont match up. Get the latest bipd plugin for entity and go the elite_mp bipd and scroll down till you see strings that have to deal with hands, things like right_hand_elite. All you have to do is get rid of the elite part of the string and the hands should fix itself.

Would I change it to nothing or is there a flood_right_hand tag in there. (I would check but I can't since I have no xbox nor modding materials at this house, tomorrow I will have those at my disposal though.
