Custom enemy. - MGermundsson - 11-13-2011
Hi, i'm currently developing a custom story.
And i can't figure out how to make a custom enemy attack:
This is how it works, i have a armour. (armour_nice_complete.ent)
I have copied it and changed it's properties to a monster. (enemy_grunt (in the model editor))
It act's just like a monster, it for example chases me when it sees me but!
When it get's close to me, it wont attack me.
I have changed the properties to match a grunt's.
Do i need animations to make it work?
If so, can i change it to a watermonster but still see the model?
Please reply, i'm kinda stuck...
Oh, by the way.
If i touch the armour, by moving towards it or it moving towards me.
It manages to become stuck, is this because the helmet or should all objects on the model be "static"?
If so, how do i fix it?

He's not attacking because you have no animations set in the model's folder. He also needs bones and joints to match the grunts, which you would have to do in Maya or Blender (I recommend Maya)... So I'm guessing the reason he gets stuck is because he is supposed to do an attack animation, but since there IS NONE, he just freezes up.
Your first step is to get Maya and try to rig him up with joints and bones.

I'm not a skilled modeler but i guess putting in a skeleton and animating it should not be so hard...
I have animated in 3D before, using cinema 4D if that would hepl.
Again, thank you!
