FL Animations

might need some finetunning… ;D
I hope you didnt use CShip::open_bay because thats too easy and you lose the normal cargo bay animation
-

I just saw the videos and did some testing, Mindhunter felt the need to post ^^ Out of simplicity I used open_bay() and to make it even worse I did a quick offset hack in common.dll via hex editor to prevent the shield dropping
When I have some spare time (which I have not much atm because of university exams) I will try to call the animations directly (I have isolated the asm part), we will see where that leads -
That sounds awesome. I look forward to see what you can do!

That’s what I was tlking about. Thanks for showing me that. I will try to have that done.

The problem I have so far is, that
namespace DALib{ IMPORT struct IAnimation2* Anim; };seems to be wrong, since the linker searches then for__imp_?Anim@DALib@@3PAUIAnimation2@1@Awhereas it should be```
_imp?Anim@DALib@@3PAUIAnimation2@@AEdit: Corrected typo... -
Yes that’s right, I retraced my attempts (via undo) and it occured before the 2 last so it basicly is only wrong in my quote
-
Ok got it
struct IMPORT IAnimation2{ }; namespace DALib { IMPORT IAnimation2* Anim; }; ```works and leads to the right ASM code, even if it looks stupid :D -
Latest progress report:
It is still not finished, needs some finetuning etc. but at least it works -
Thx!
It’s done completely via clienthooking, even the commands I enter are interpreted from the client. As soon as I have completely implemented everything (like animation object deletion etc.) I will change it so the server can start animations. I still have to test whether others see the animation played… -
Well sadly it is not synced (gotta change that :D). In the meantime I got a modified puddlejumper from our modeller and used it to test how it would look. I really like the result!
-
Oh wow, that is awesome
It looks like a have a whole bunch of models to do at FW:ToW now!! -
Yes it really looks cool
I hope there is no showstopper burried somewhere, I am not completeley finished with the reverse engineering stuff…I noticed the video links do not work right now so here is my profile just klick on the v5 test

Well thanks for all your effort in this area, mate. I believe many mods will have use for the work you’re doing now. It’s not easy, and damn right frustrating sometimes, I can imagine, but you’re doing it for a great cause, so GO YOU!!
