Saiyajinzoningen Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 UPDATE: modified [Combat fly] to [Fly_forward_pose_2] also located Air superiority animation names [2Hsmash] modified [dragons_tail] successfully 1 Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?

Eidolor Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Would you post a pic of your directory so I can check my path? Are you extracting folders from the pigg viewer then dragging the replacement .anim into your directory location and renaming them the file to be replaced?

Saiyajinzoningen Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Sure the path for me is C:\ City of heroes \ Data \ Player_Library \ Animations \ Male The city of heroes folder is where the game is installed You can see the 5 animations i've changed. Here's an example: The [Fly.anim] file is really [flyforward_alt4.anim] This changes my default non combat fly into flypose#4 Ideally i'd also like to change [storm_kick] into [gut_punch] but the changes wont take. If you figure out the trick plz let me know. 1 Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidolor Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Sure as shit that’s it, I can reproduce! Cross punch is brawling_sweep_cross Provoke is combat_comehere Storm kick wasn’t roundhouse, windmill, launch or any of the leap/jump/spin/kicks I tried. Maybe it’s broken into parts for the jump and an air for the attack but something should’ve shown some kinda change if any of them were right Edited February 16, 2020 by Eidolor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spctr Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hey hey! I was testing stuff out again, i managed to change normal running animations to ninja run (i havent touched jumping yet) but there's a problem As you can see, it looks very very weird It does get better though if you have higher move speed (i turned on sprint in this one) Here's the filenames for the run animations Currently trying to find a way to change run animation while holding a weapon (it changes back to default run if I have my weap out) if you guys find anything about it lemme know too T.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 UPDATE: These changes are only visible from the players side however all other players/npc's that use the powers that you have adjusted will appear to have the changes as well. 1 Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?

Eidolor Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 I did see ninja runs with generic _weapon and specific _dualpistol etc but I don’t know if normal sprints have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 i also tried adjusting the ninja runs however its a little more complex due to positioning of the animations. For example Ninja run backwards imo looks way better than ninja run forward but when i switch em up i get all kinds of weird hijinks Also [storm_kick] is listed as itself and oddly enough i can make other powers use the storm kick animation using that file but i cant change the original storm kick to something else.

Eidolor Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 (edited) I’m grateful for the list even with gaps, still looking through sounds on and off for provoke, cross punch and 6 shot burst and a couple of them might share names with animations that prove difficult to pin down. Tacked it onto the op in resources for others starting. Was a real slap to the taint to learn I’d tried dozens under my botched pathing, then got all the anims I needed within 10m soon as sai cleared me up. Still kinda butthurt Trying to crack spawning objects in hand and locate hench models now (afraid they and their appearances are scattered all around in chunks) Edited February 17, 2020 by Eidolor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 UPDATE: due to character positioning modifying [fly_up] is doable but looks wrong on every level. still no luck with [storm_kick] Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative?

Troo Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 have any of you come across non player character or AV versions of the same powers yet? diving into the back-end could make one appreciate the expanse of CoX and how what seem like small asks/requests can actually be major tasks.

Eidolor Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Yeah I saw them enemies and since beginning this have a newfound respect for the volunteer devs and mods, the coding in coh is wild so all their recent work is just breathtaking. Either way either we or they will crack these, but making a ui is way beyond me Edited February 18, 2020 by Eidolor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlufflyBall Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I went through all the discussion. I was wondering if just changing the tornado FX into waterspout would be a hard task? Never tried anything like that, but I will when I have time soon. Thank you for all the infos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidolor Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 I think the hardest part is finding them, but after that’s done it could be as easy as copy, paste, rename. Lemme know how it goes, I’ll start messing with fx too soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiyajinzoningen Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hey guys/gals/folks its been awhile since i posted in this thread. I'm really happy with the melee animation customization's i have set for my main char. However id like to try my hand at the ranged attacks. I have a basic idea on how to change the animation your character performs but i have no idea how to change the particle effects. So heres an example of something id like to do to: Blaster > Energy Blast > Explosive blast = Targeted aoe with a 1.67s cast time. replaced with Blaster > Radiation Blast > Neutron Bomb = Targeted aoe with a 1.67 cast time. On paper should be a no brainer but. Id need to change the char animation as well at the fired projectile and maybe its effect when it lands? I honestly have no idea which is why i'm resurrecting this thread. If u have some experience, or ideas or leads that can help plz let me know. Its easy to criticize a suggestion but can you suggest an alternative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
