HDT weapons - Suggestion

[Hentai-chan]

Is it possible to make weapons with HDT physics? Weapons like flails, 'snake' sword and such. Just really curious.

Cant see the "making" the weapon would be terribly difficult compared to the likes of some of the hair projects that have been achieved, however the collision detection for actually using such a weapon may get a little hairy.

I'd love to have HDT for sheathed weapons Would look great having your onehanded sword actually hanging at your hip and starting to move as you run, jump, etc.

It really shouldn't be overly hard.

 

Just have a preset distance the weapon hits at and then have the dangling object.

 

When you swing you hit the target with the "preset" hit box and then the dangling object is just there for looks.

 

Similar to the castlevania mod that's out there...you're actually hitting them with an invisable object and there's an animation that goes along with it that makes it appear as if it is being hit with a visable object.

 

also, you wouldn't really NEED the collison effect of the object cuz it would/should be moving fast enough that you wouldn't notice it that much anyways, it would be nice to see it bounce off people's heads but if it just goes through them, eh, better than nothing.

 

illusions! lol

This has been asked a few time's now.

 

yes, it is possible.

no-one has done it yet.

someone kinda/might have/slightly dabbled with it, no results shared yet tho.

ppl get hugn up on making the ball hit the target. There's no such thing in the game as it is. you can beat the hell out of a guy and never make animated contact.

 

just attach the ball n chain to the stick, call it a 2h weap, and swing away. Let the physics take care of the rest... it'll flail around and look cool and it won't matter if it bounces off the intended target.

exactly, this isn't Gary's mod... I just want it too look cool.
