Type 6 looks promising so far. What a horror it was to get it to work.

Re: Resident Evil animations
New version that will probably export ALL biped animations, including some biped things I've seen today. Never played this game btw. Its now hardcoded to make IK toe bones from tracks number 13 and 17. Which seems to be same for all bi-peds. The tool failed before because of some bones not remapped to the model. Strange.
It still lacks support for many unknown bone types.

Any luck with that?rubening wrote:im gona try to find someone who can help me to do that attaching those bones. with chain length 3.

Re: Resident Evil animations
Brilliant work. It's amazing to see so much progress in a few days after years.
Thanks also PredatorCZ for posting some structures, animations are new to me and I find them fascinating to research.
Could you share your new findings? Probably I can't contribute much new research, but I certainly want to understand the format and be able to export animations back to the game.

Re: Resident Evil animations
I second the motion! I would also like to know your new findings since I got stuck while trying to import this format myself, I'm still puzzled.

Re: Resident Evil animations
Ok today I plan to add root rotation and static positions/rotations, this should fix the remaining problems and then I can explain you the "new findings".

Re: Resident Evil animations
Making some final tests. This pack is now fully working. Some animations include only upper or lower body half, or only fingers (like in the end). I had to include the initial pose before each motion to make it all export correctly.

Re: Resident Evil animations
Ok, except some rare problems that sometimes happen with high heels, looks like everything's exporting fine. These are some examples of package em84. Probably cutscenes:

Some movements:

And some more actions:

I'm going to publish the new version soon. Need to make some final checks. I found that some anims have hands IK, these will NOT work correctly, but I've only seen this is static poses, so I hope this is not needed, at least for now.

Re: Resident Evil animations
Tool published at first post. Now its REALLY exports most animations properly.
Re: Resident Evil animations
Thanks a lot! I would just like to mention that em84 is a boss and that the animations inside em84evt are animations that actually play on the player when you interact with the boss.

So since I don't exactly know about "old findings" I'm not sure what "new findings" you'd like to know. As I said, rotations are saved as quats, 4 x 14 bits, signed integers. Divide each number by 4096, you get quat components.
From all bones, only toes are not normal bones, but actually IK targets for toes.
Bone -1 is root bone.
Bone -2 I'm not sure, maybe related to weapon or something, has many tracks, up to 8 or 9. I didn't try exporting it.

Can't speak for Bastien but that is all I wanted to know really, I was thinking that rotations were stored in some weird half-float format...daemon1 wrote:Oh, you never know.
