Can you downscale a biped that is already animated? I'm trying to downscale the cyborg biped by -5.00 units.

Create a dummy object, and parent the biped's root node to it (usually bip01 pelvis); Then scale the actual dummy object. Courtesy of teh-lag for one day popping into a thread when i asked how the cmt hunters were scaled up. Things to note however: You can only uniformly scale the object, scaling by seperate axis' will skew the model during the animation passes. The dummy object isn't recognized by the animation pass as a node, but still accepts the scaling of the bones under its hierarchy. (basically, halo doesn't recognize the object but says screw it anyway and scales the bones.) You can test it out before you export by using the bluestreak animation importer in max. Thanks this is perfect. |
