Hello,i just maked a spider that uses Grunt ai. I used insans_vision spider because the critter one`s was bugged. Maybe im gonna fix it.

im gonna released it a mod or in one of my custom stories.

still deals no damage and all animations are using idle anim,but is working great. i will be also converting spider eggs.

Look here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRRfBlOrI3I&feature=youtu.be

i may release it on frictional games or other`s like mediafire....etc.....

I hope you enjoyed it,i worked on it really long time until i realized what to do.i breaked it many times but i repaired it.

Made*

It's really interesting and this should be in the Development Resources section instead.
It has no use at all for my CS probably because unless it was like way bigger it won't be threatening that much.

I really appreciate this, but could you perhaps make this spider bigger? Like three times bigger or so? It aint that freaky when its that small. You would do me a great favour.

Did you delete the .msh and try again? You might need to open the model in Blender or Maya, re-size it and re-export it.

Oh,mudbil,i seen u on yt.I mostly had help from ur videos about scripts.
How can i open them? Maya 2013 shows errors. It doesn`t even have plug-ins folder. The .dae file opened shows only skeleton.No model

Maya isn't the easiest to use, but you can get used to it.

Maya 2013 isn't supported for Amnesia yet though. The beta patch should help, but it's not officially released yet. Use Maya 2011 if you can. Once imported, enable mesh and textures with '6' on the keyboard. For me, the size is always 100 times more than it should be for some reason, so I have to scale the models to 0.01 to be correct. If you have ColladaMaya installed, export it as .dae with these settings:

Hmmmm thanks.I will uninstall the 2013 ver and install the 2011.Let`s see if i can do it.

hmmmm i installed collada,i opened the models and they worked.They were 100 times bigger.But when i try to import spiders or hunter or roach,they just show as skeleton or just they dont even load in Maya.Can u tell me which software is easier to do these things?

**Mudbill** · 03-13-2014, 05:17 PM

I don't know if there are any other softwares that are "easier" to use, because very few are supported. You MIGHT be able to use Blender, but personally I find it much more difficult than Maya. Also 3ds Max should work, but only with the beta patch. Otherwise I think you have to use Maya for animations no matter what. Does hitting 6 on the keyboard not do anything? It's a shortcut for one of the buttons above the viewport to enable the faces and textures on them.
