PC Darksiders II: Death Lives maxscript

Hmm, I guess, this could correct, that all bone weights are set to 1.0 it's a some sort of a golem. So, I'm sure each part of mesh weighted to some bone with 1.0 (all weights are red) it's doesnt require to have miltiple weights at all, I think. Though, if there's no bone-id's this is weird. And if all mesh parts are on the 0,0,0 coordinates (lying on the "floor" in 3ds max) I guess, those parts should be referensed to specific bones (their possition), I've seen something like that in many games, for example Armored Core series

According to situation, additional bones in .o3d are reference transformation of model object.
Same "thing" also have static objects used in maps.

to tell the truth is not so. there is a model in which the mesh are in the right position to form the model in the position t mode!


anyway, I thought maybe we can see in the animation files then see if you can find skinning! if you want, I can be passed all the models that have the same problem, although there is a model that has the normal bone weights, but the right arm is like constructs, fragmented.

This model is integrated, If you ever saw construct in game you can notice when they're spawning they are multiple objects that are assembled into final pose. Also if you destroy them, those exact parts will break and fall away like normal physics object. Thats why they are "laying on ground".

[zaramot]

And this T-posed model doesn't have bones, right? Can you send me this one? Maybe it doesn't have skeleton, but weights are there.

[dibe91]

of course! I leave you a folder with all the models that have the same problem: http://www.mediafire.com/download/v1538 ... models.rar

[dibe91]

(If you happen to find the boneids/weights I could think of building a skeleton manually, 50 bones are not too many. )

I also had thought about this solution, but since I also wanted to use the original animations!

[shakotay2]

well, I had a look at construct_meleeb_gibsdeathpile.o3d, for the first bone CG_Melee_ShoulderPad_R_GIB they claim to be Position and Rotation included but I'm not shure about the 4 words before those strings.

So i just logged the floats - maybe you find it worth to build a skeleton from?
But I'm not sure - as always - because it's a dead pile? Does it even move?

that kind of model should be when the model is a mecchio of inanimate pieces which then make up together. are not also gladly that you can get something from them!

[shakotay2]

I've tried it with the hulk and it's not very promissing.
(I feel a waste of time and life... )

It is already progress I would say, compared to the fact that there was nothing. try to see the "construct_championa"

[shakotay2]

yeah, about 153 bones - would have to cut off up to 100 of them (a shitload of work) - also that reduced skeleton would not work with anims

[dibe91]

there are still strange things with these models.

[dibe91]

I think ver found the solution to my problem I found file called "construct_base.o3d" and I think I found the solution to the problem. in the file I found the word "Skeleton":

I leave the file:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ldrkr ... t_base.rar

[dibe91]

ok, according zaramot, it is possible to solve the problem, but I first have to upload the files .o3d (the skeleton) and then the .dcm file (meshes). Now I'm trying to create one script that can only rot the .o3d file.
