Missing animation

[Sunndae]

Hello all.


I am soon setting up a race event for vanilla 42. I am taking vehicles from mods and put them into my map. This is working all fine but there is one thing that i cant figure out.


I took vehicles (cars but also planes) and they work. But for motorbikes like this one (but also others) I have a missing animation(or atleast i think this is a missing animation). I cannot find a file for this anywhere. Should also be in the expansion packs since Secret Weapons has Motorbikes too.

See the picture this is what i mean. He aint holding the steering wheel.



Has anyone any idea that can help me further?. I dont know where to look for this.

I have not found the animation file yet ether but I will keep looking for it for you. I did notice something though when adding the scout bike to your map did you add the AI Object, physic and the regular object files to your map? If you look in those files you will see code for where the arms hands and feet go while on the bike for both the driver and passenger. From the looks of the picture that is what is missing and the character is positioned as if it is in a different type of vehicle. Look in the Object.con file of SW of WWII folder for those files I mentioned.

this isn't a predefined animation. it is a dummy steering wheel. you need to create this so the hands move with the steering.

LodSelectorTemplate.create DistanceSelector WheelChairSteeringSelector

the "AnimatedBundle" is addtemplated to the LOD. the hands should move with the steering properly after.

you'll have to tweak...

Code: Select all

ObjectTemplate.addSkeletonIK Bip01_R_Hand 0.4/.5/0 -80/60/50
ObjectTemplate.addSkeletonIK Bip01_L_Hand -0.4/.5/0 -80/-60/50
...
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation 0/0/-60
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 0/0/60

for your vehicle.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes i think I have all files. I have alos looked up custom maps made by others that have a motorbike and they dont have this fixed either.
I wonder why it is good in secret weapons for example, but not in a custom map. Is there a file elsewhere that need to be changed?.

Thanks this is something where I see possibilitys. However when I tweaked these numbers nothing had changed.

This is the code of my objects.con and where I try to change it:

When I add your code nothing changes either. Am I doing something wrong?.
