Is this idea possible? - Russ Money - 06-15-2011
I always wanted to include some more realism to my mod. So I'll keep this short.
Is it possible to make the player's view weave back and forth from left to right when running? Kind of like, leaning left to right when holding Shift+W?

Of course, you just need to have the Source code for the engine.

Should be possible with timers.. No idea xD

You'd have to have a function get a constant GetPlayerSpeed, and then make it so if it's true, have MovePlayerHeadPos move left to right and keep repeating.

Will be buggy. Forget it. That stuff is done via the engine itself, doing it other way is not efficient and terribly buggy.

I don't see why it'd be buggy if you keep tweaking it until it works right. You can include head rotation as well, and some blur effects.

Yeah, I could see that working. Just need to figure out the numbers for max speed vs. walking speed.

You'd have to do do
Code:
bool weave = (GetPlayerSpeed() - abs(GetPlayerYSpeed()) > runspeed);
.I think in this case runspeed would be about 4 ish. Just check the "player info" option in debug mode and run; one of the pieces of info it gives will be all the different movement speeds.

IIRC it's about 2 for crawling forward.

Otherwise his head would do stuff if you jumped / went down stairsCode:bool weave = (GetPlayerSpeed() - abs(GetPlayerYSpeed()) > runspeed);

Good luck on executing the idea though
