Couldn't you just change the standpath?


Unfortunately the idlepath is only set for one leg and then copied for both, so the foreground/background legs have to be in the same place. I tried to work out a way of doing that a long time ago but it's just not possible at the moment. Maybe in build 21 :)

Yep, I tried to do that myself. I tried both setting some position variables different in each leg, and also just spriting the legs to make them look like they're apart. The issues arose in the placement of the feet, which like to follow the same path no matter what the legs look like, and the fact that the legs would move really weird when walking/running. So, I gave up.

I also wish I could make the arms move around too, when the actor isn't firing, or not holding a weapon. They would have to move independently too though.

Finally, the Darklones look as sexy as the CRobos. Poor AAL, it's become the ugliest faction, and it has brilliant sprites!

top work, can't wait for release!!



Note to self: Fix ugly.

They look like a blue shadow the hedgehog.
But still looking awesome and sleek.

@Numgun: I don't think they're ugly.

My only complaint with your stuff is that your actors tend to have arms and legs that don't really bend much, if at all. The MPAM and the Marine both look kinda akward when they walk, because their legs stay perfectly straight and just rotate around the hips.

The sprites themselves seem fine though, last time I checked.

Not sure about the MPAM part, but the marine has the legs like that because I seriously hate spriting stuff thats supposed to bend, I thank No_0ne for his awesome straight leg concept since thats where I took my inspiration from. Also do note that the marine is in a metallic mobile armor suit so dont expect those legs to bend too much and the same goes for MPAM in this case.

Although my sprites are good, I could still update the shading and possible detail. Atleast I will make the shoulders on the marine seperate attachables.

hey Numgun, that was worded poorly, your sprites are great, but you need to improve them more so to compete with Darlos, let alone capnbubs!

Grr... I WILL be considered equal to bubs! Just wait till the next build. I plan to make my stuff fudgewin through excellent animation (cool looking stances, arms that move with legs, intricate reloading, etc).

Looking forward to it.
Will the new Dklones be released before next build or are you holding them back to have them perfect.

Why try to be equal with anyone if you could be... better? >: 3
Btw I like your challenge-thirsty mind, lets see if I will beat all of you at once!

Looks like I better step it up a notch before I get overtaken! :grin:
