heavy weapon characters
#1
???
I was bathing and the I started running through the DC stuff that various ppl had said. I suddenly rmbred abt DL's heavy weapon character theory. But then I immediately asked myself, how could I get it to work with all those default falling and on ground frames to emulate the standing and walking frames (etc) of type 0 data?

Hmm... Well, one problem with the heavy weapon method is that characters automatically drop the weapon as soon as they are hit, even if they have state: 7, so I dunno if it'd be possible to emulate falling frames at all. However, you can emulate jumping, rowing, and dashing. A while back, I posted a bandit edit that I made that could do this stuff, but the link is down.

can u plz upload it again? I'd like to see how it works... because I want to try sth with it smilie

sorry for the delay, here it is:

Don't expect much, i was just messing around

Pretty simple actually, just editing the heavy weapon frames in character to let the character do different stuff. Like transforming without using another data file.

I do not quite understand what you are talking about... Can you link me to the place where he said that?

Sinow
Where who said what? I quoted you from this very thread.

DL posted about it in the official forums, but the theory is what I described.

Its basically changing the heavy weapon frames so you can use them for something other than holding heavy weapons, thats basically it.

The One
I meant 'where did DL write it?' because I don't know who is he and I do not visit the officials a lot... so I would be happy if you'd post a link...

Can you give an example to the use of the function? (Like posting a dat file which has this method)

I'm sorry if I'm annoying, please don't be mad at me... because I feel that I ask WAY too much...

it was funny how he thought that MH wouldn be able to answer it :9

edit: too bad i wasn there at that time - to be honest it never really sounded like darklord actually made it work - if i read his posts it looks more like a theory lol

and tomywcs solution to the actual problem there is a lot better - on top of that he made a thing with heavy weapons in robotical lf2 before that - and that was a lot neater - not the same tho

edit2: btw im thinking on trying that "heavyweaponchar" thingy out for another sprite challenge when the 40 frames one is finished

The One
Wow that's very advanced... but also very intersting...
I still need to read it again so I'll make sure I understand...

EDIT: I hope someone still reads this-
I think I saw it in there but I'm not sure anymore, so I wanna know:
Will this method ruin the normal heavy weapons for that character?
