haha... sometimes only, but yesterday the constellations were all in alignment

please let me know which part you do not get. If you read my tutorial and you don't get it, I consider it to be failure on my behalf

may that be a grammar fail. he meant, he was messing around with wpoints but didn't realise what it together with ik8 could do.

or i just fail at understanding him D:

either way, i assure that the tutorial is understandable, assuming one has basic knowledge of ik8 (in other words, location detection)

[Magnamancy]

Oh no, I meant that previously I had trouble coming to terms with the
nature of Itr: Kind 8, but this tutorial has helped a lot. ^^

Sorry for the miss communication. ^^;

Forgetlatios is right too, I have been playing around with w-points, but I
hadn't realized previously how applicable they were.

Doesn't work for me.

Code:

Short explanation of what's going on in the .gif:
The character summons a ball which will be active on the field for a short period of time. The character will not be able to spawn a second ball during that time, and must wait until the first has disappeared before he'll be allowed to spawn a new ball.

[Marshall]

That code is for your type.3 object? Where's the opoint and wpoint?

[forgetlatios]

i think action: 1220 doesn't work... it has to be a next.

DC-Code: <frame> 80 hide_one_limit pic: 99 state: 3005 wait: 0 next: 81 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 centerx: 0 centery: 40 hit_a: 0 hit_d: 0 hit_j: 47 <frame_end>   <frame> 81 hide_one_limit pic: 99 state: 3005 wait: 0 next: 82 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 centerx: 0 centery: 40 hit_a: 0 hit_d: 0 hit_j: 47 opoint: kind: 2 x: -42 y: 40 action: 1220 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 oid: 344 facing: 0 opoint_end: wpoint: kind: 1 x: -42 y: 40 weaponact: 290 attacking: 0 cover: 0 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 wpoint_end: <frame_end>   <frame> 82 hide_one_limit pic: 99 state: 3005 wait: 2 next: 83 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 550 centerx: 0 centery: 40 hit_a: 0 hit_d: 0 hit_j: 0 wpoint: kind: 1 x: -42 y: 40 weaponact: 290 attacking: 0 cover: 0 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 wpoint_end: <frame_end>   <frame> 83 hide_one_limit pic: 99 state: 3005 wait: 1 next: 1000 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 centerx: 0 centery: 40 hit_a: 0 hit_d: 0 hit_j: 0 wpoint: kind: 1 x: -42 y: 40 weaponact: 1000 attacking: 0 cover: 0 dvx: 0 dvy: 0 dvz: 0 wpoint_end: <frame_end>

code=dc works better...

@Jossua
Sorry, using mobile browser so I didn't see the code properly. If you don't have any reasons in particular, try action 1200. You control the disappearance of type 0 by wpoint with wait.

@Az
Action works.

I'll upload my dat files soon for reference

[sharkdragon]

I don't know where i have to enter that code, I think in a type 3, and I am trying to join this two codes:
- The temporary Trasformation: http://www.lf-empire.de/en/lf2-empire/da...sformation
- The code from this page.
I want to do a character with a temporary transformation but when I do it, a com appears and I want to put the invisibility of rudolf like in this post but I can't.

[Marshall]

example for those who wants a reference is now added in the first post. hope this will help everyone.

[Sinow Rappy]

Pretty cool! I'm kinda surprised that action: 1200 works in wpoint.

lol, I was able to achieve the same effect fairly well in another method, but from the looks of it, this way is much more beautiful! Very nice!
