I ripped the energy sword from xXx-Headlong, because it was too awesome. I made all the folders, put an item collection in sapien, and it turned out fine for players:http://screenshot.xfire.com/s/113859206-3.jpg

So I tried to put it on a biped, and here's what happened:


Is there a fix for this?

Usually this has to do with the bipeds animations. Go to that elite's animations to see if it has the sword animations and sword IK points. Compare its animation file with the H1 sword elite animation tag, and you'll see what needs editing.

This same thing will happen with MC tags because his original animations don't include the same IK points and weapon ref. in the animation tag, as elites do to hold a sword.

Just to be sure... the animations is in guerrilla and is the animations graph?

Yes the animations in guerilla, the tags.

if you are using cmt or average elites model animation you are lost because if you want that the MC or other spartan to pick it up you should make it as Es in $$$ weapon $$$ label but if you want a elite to be able of pick it up or have it you should make it as fb in which case a spartan couldnt pick it up so if you want a elite biped to pick it up and make the espartan able to pick it up to you should use the elite_mp mp model animation which are the only ones who allowed a elite use energy sword without change the label to fb the thing is that the animation when the elite dies is horrible the head get inside the body one leg twist itself and the other one seems to be fine so... i would say that you use those animations if you want to make the sword for both spartan an elites ... its your choice

o.k. I'm completely lost now. I looked into the animations of the two elites, (yes I am using CMT's elites) and they had different animations, but I tried and had a hard time with them.
^^ That was pretty confusing, and yeah, I don't think I'm up for fixing this. Anyone have the elites that could make V2 with sword animations?
