Cool model.

That's one ugly dude....

[edit] I wonder if the black square has something to do with the "cast shadow" bit in your fpe file?

It's a weird problem.

instinct is more valuable than intelligence.....

Even if you have the mocap files you still have to rig it. What makes him so difficult to rig? He looks like a standard humanoid/biped type character to me.

i think he means animate...

rigging is easy, its just making it look real when it moves thats hard.

and i dont care what anybody says, you cant make a realistic walking animation by hand, you may get close, but never exactly. thats where mocap comes in.
-best invention ever...

what i mean is i want him to move like hes a mutant not a conker i am currently on the lookout for a suitable bvh motion file to apply to the biped so he moves cool because at the moment he looks silly when he attacks

when i have sorted this out i let this guy loose so you guys can use him your games until then ill remain hard at it

Yeah, keyframing a walk cycle is hard, even the walk cycle generated by character studio looks stiff and unnatural.

Go check out e-motek's stock moves (google). There's a ton of free mocap that can be converted to BVH. It covers many types of walk and run cycles, and a bunch of other stuff too. The great thing about them if you're using character studio is that they can be easily blended to create entirely new animations.

I think you should be able to find something suitable for this guy

Ahh,so this model is from Natural Selection, good ole Half-Life mod...

I took a look at your max file, and I'm kind of puzzled on the way you rigged this. First the, the biped head is nowhere near the head on the model. Also the legs are kinda funky too, the toes are pointing straight up. I see you're using my modified zombie biped.

So I deleted the physique modifier to see the original model. It looks totally different. I would start over and rig this again. Also, I would add a tail link and ponytail link to the biped.



Here is what it SHOULD look like once its rigged properly. I'm not sure the default FPSC biped will work properly with this model. I think character studio has a "reverse knee" option, although I've never used it yet, it would be appropriate for this model. And it looks like you should add another leg link while you're at it.

crow34,

This character is "bird legged", it has reverse knees. Look in max's help file for reverse knees to see how this works. Also this character needs an extra leg link, which you can add in the biped structure rollout.

Then you can import mocap data and it will retain the reverse knees. I've attached a video clip showing the reverse knees applied to a simple walk cycle, pretty cool huh?

Nice gun by the way...
