Hi, I know question is asked several times yet..but since I have a lot of .x Characters with animations I really need to know if is there is a workflow I can do to make them working in gameguru

I have bought animer for gameguru and have fragmotion too

In the past I acheived to convert some old fpsc characeter models to work into gameguru..but now I want to know if I can import my third party purchased characters and use them with theri own animations

thanks in advance

Essentially, you just have to look up their animation frames, and replace the ones in the scripts with the ones your character has.
The rest should be standart mesh importing. Make sure to have security copies.

must I use his GenRun animation frames (2690,2711) and put it into

and must maintain the list as I have in a generic character .fpe file



and simply put the animation frame intervail into the appropriate position??

Yes that is what is needed next. Transfer your animation sequences to match the animation sequences of the GameGuru animation numbers and then use the same script that was assigned that character.

Bear in mind you have the animations that should work with waypoints.

Take a look at all of the scripts. the ones for the zombies are for free roaming characters which do not follow way points.

If you want a character that can use most weapons, and follow waypoints, then look at the Uber soldier and its scripts.

Hope that helps out more.

In Mender save all frames of animation!
You need save from 0 to 1 frames only if you want to import animations in Animer.
If you want to use existing animations in your character - save all frames in Mender.

If you don't like the speed or witch anim is played you can put
In your scriptfile. something like SetAnimationSpeed(e,50);
You can also set the exact animation you want with Set Animation(0)
In the fpe file then there has to be someting like


Or SetAnimationFrames(0,100) in the .lua code

I dont'know exactly wat you want to change.
But Smallg knows much more of it then i.

these are for the script, so for in the game.
I see in your previous post that the charge is
Charge,2668,2689

So in the code you put somehing like



or you use something like SetAnimationFrames (2668,2689)
