i saw someone asking about how to throw objects and while exploring i found this command: SetEntityRagdollForce(e,limb,x,y,z,v)
it can in a way allow you to throw objects but i decided it was more fun just to punch stuff out the way... enjoy

@smallg how would I go about this by making the 3rd person use melee without the throwing?

I have the third person hidden and am using the new TransportToFrozen commands and a script to control the movement & animations from there.
(I don't like the default third person animations much and this way I get to control more of what happens)
It works OK but I couldn't make the mouse work for adjusting the y rotation so I had to use A and D for turning (maybe with a bit more time spent looking at it but I wasn't too worried)

Keep up the greatness!!

That is so incredibly awesome! I tried to do something similar in the past but had no idea how to make any force like that (failed attempt):




With that Dante beast you could make an entire game about city rampage

The script is custom for the enemies as I wanted to show them flying in the air as a group and I wouldn't be able to do that if they're running all over the place

Running over zombies, everyone's favourite post apocalypse activity :p
To use the command SetEntityRagdollForce(e,limb,x,y,z,v) you need to set the direction of the hit in the x,y,z (this should be a low value as the higher the value the more force is applied, but 0,0,0 will cause everything to disappear), I used g_Entity[e]['x'] - g_PlayerPositionX etc (or maybe the other way) and a value of about 10 and 30 in y to make them go up depending on the attack used.
The limb I just put "head" but any that exist should work.
And finally the force to also adjust how powerful the reaction is just a number you feel works.

I always get a kick when I see the ragdoll physics code I developed in action.
The code I gave Lee also included the ability to shoot a ray at the model and get a hit on
the ragdoll limb and apply a force to just that ragdoll limb. Also Lee had suggested that he would
add a spike gun to FPSCR so I developed that as well. Just get Lee to expose this in LUA.
This is the video I made to show Lee how the 2 techniques worked, this should be possible
since this is the code he is using.

The coffee is lovely dark and deep,and I have code to write before I sleep.

I think when the request for a Spike Gun comes through the community as a priority, I can add the extra ragdoll mechanism as a LUA command. Physics is so cool

@Stab cool video and nice code
any form of raycast in GG would be a bonus to be honest.
@teabone
here is how it looks for running down those zombies that didn't read the highway code


for anyone interested the code looks like this.
Quote: "SetEntityHealth(e,0)
SetEntityRagdollForce(e,"head",(g_Entity[e]['x']-g_PlayerPosX),1,(g_Entity[e]['z']-g_PlayerPosZ),11500)"

you just need a condition like
Quote: "if GetPlayerDistance(e) < 100 then"

or
Quote: "if g_Entity[e]['limbhit'] ~= "" then"

to tell it when to trigger

Nice demo smallg

Talking of new commands, as a quick aside, did you guys notice that you can place text over the top of sprites now? Opens up better possibilities for HUDs and notes on letters etc. (PasteSprite & PasteSpritePosition)

Cheers.

Oh is that how were supposed to do it? Seems an odd solution, surely a set text depth would have been easier to work with? I normally associate pasting sprites as a way to make and grab new graphics on the fly.
