Made a new thread because no one was responding.... Bobble: So, the issue with the Plasma Launcher at this point is one of animations. 314 made a charging animation, that works using the plasma pistols tagging, but when trying to combine it with the effect in the video, it doesn't seem to be possible. Does anyone know if it would be possible to link an overcharge animation with the tagging seen here? http://www.xfire.com/video/526009/ http://www.xfire.com/video/5260b4/ ^Extra info.

SFloyd's model is better :D ( Sorry if i sound insulting ) Well, Why didn't you just ask your buddy ( Me ). I already starting with the plasma launcher. Well i don't have HEK i can't do it but i can tell you how. Including the projectile. I will be on xfire on friday. Try to be online so i can teach you, Or just ask LMT_Heretic, He already made a plasma launcher weapon tag but the model is just a plain H1 Fuel rod gun. How does this help Spartan with his launcher? And I bet his model is better than the one I stated. and if floyd's is better, you better prove me wrong.But seriously alt, start being more mature. What the heck? Did I just tell a TROLL to be mature? HAHAHA like that'll ever happen.And spartan, My uvw unwrapping skills are decent. It's killing me to not say something, and I havent because I have my own projects going on. If your absolutely desprate, give me a PM on xfire.

http://www.modacity.net/forums/showthread.php?24220-Plasma-Launcher Hey guys, I posted a thread on Modacity, and here's what Donut said: Quote: i have a feeling the 4 shot burst is whats tripping you up. from what ive seen, the 3 shot burst on the h2 battle rifle was accomplished using a very fast charge effect, and if you guys are using the same tag trick for your 4 shot burst, thats probably why your animation isnt working. thats probably why you get the animation issue around 2% battery too

(er, I forgot how this works, %1 and %2 i think... so, firstperson charge%1, firstperson charge%2 and so on) But there's no way to get it to fire the way it works in reach. Hmm, Ill consult with 314 about the animation sequences, I really don't know anything about animations :P I already know that you cant get it to fire the way it works in Reach, that is not my goal at the moment. My only goal is to get the charging animation working while the weapon is actually charging. P.S. Dennis, if you get the chance to look at this thread, would it be possible to ban Altheros from posting in it? Just curious :P Edited by Bobblehob on Jan 5, 2012 at 02:24 PM

Altheros has done nothing wrong in this thread until you started a fight with him. All he did was offer to help.

Just a nudge that this hasn't died. I'm still trying to get this work, but it keeps being stubborn. I'm pretty sure it's an animation that's not working correctly, but I just can't seem to figure out what is wrong.. If anyone that has the time and skill willing to find out what exactly is going on here please contact me on xfire or PM me. I'll send you the map and tags.
