Did you know? There are several hidden animations in Cyblob that never made it to the final release of X10. Well, now with v1.09 of FPSC, you can unlock his hidden abilities!

Cyblob has a hunger for brains, and now you can unlock his melee animations. He will lumber towards you, and depending on his mood, will either slap you with his fat hand, or grab you and chomp your brains!

VIDEO CLIP OF BRAIN CHOMPING: http://www.hyrumark.com/cyblobmelee_video.wmv

What you need:
1. The cyblob.X file from X10. Yes, you must be an owner of X10 to get this file.
2. You need to have upgraded to v1.09 of FPSC
3. This zip file, which includes a special script and fpe file for use in X9, as well as an X9 texture for Cyblob. Extract this zip to your X9 directory, keeping the folder structure intact. You will also need to place the cyblob.X file into the "entitybank/cyblob_MELEE" folder. http://www.hyrumark.com/cyblob_melee_X9.zip

That's it! X10 owners can now enjoy a brain chomping Cyblob in X9.

This is awesome!

I'll have to use him on my next zombie epic.
He is too sci-fi for the one I am working on now.

Thanks for sharing that with us Bond.

Very nice. Out of curiosity, how does player movement affect the zombie when he pulls himself in? If you move will, you avoid him, or does he actually "cling" to you?

Funny you should ask.....at the moment you can still back away and avoid the attack. But in the next beta of v109 Lee is adding a FREEZE PLAYER command so that the enemy will actually "cling" to you for the bite. It's awesome, you really feel like you are being "pulled in" by the character.

Stay tuned for a new script!

wow thats cool, nice work.

opens up a whole lot of possibilities, which only need to be animated.

i sure hope the new freeze player command will keep the player pointing directly towards the enemy, would be weird to be walking away from him, then just randomly stop as you get bitten from behind

Wait...so you're saying so long as we own both X10 AND X9, we can use the materials from X10 in the X9 engine?

Suddenly getting a Vista computer doesn't sound like a bad idea!

That's what I thought at first, but then realized it would be much better if the player is frozen in their current direction. It's awkward and disorienting to be constantly snapping around to face the character, especially if more than one are attacking, or you are just a few degrees off center.

99% of the time enemies are in your 180 degree field of view, so this isn't a problem. And the other times you are running away, and in most cases will avoid the attack.

For this character, for example, you are only frozen for about 25 frames, less than a second. But that very small amount of time really creates a powerful illusion. The freeze kicks in the moment his arms are in the grab pose.

Wait, you can't adjust the amount of time that you are frozen??

I'm looking forward to more effects like screen shake, and different overlays pending on characters and triggers.

Yes, you can adjust the time you are frozen. In this particular case, the bite animation lasts 25 frames, which is the amount of time you are frozen, which is specified in the script.

For example, say an enemy has a STUN GUN (oh HELL yeah!), then you could make the player frozen for as long as you like!

Exactly how is the time calculated for freezing a player?

It's an on or off function. PLRFREEZE=1 PLRFREEZE=0

So you can use a timer to specify the amount of time, and add it to a trigger zone like for an electricized floor region. Or in the case of this particular script, I'm specifying a frame range so that the player is only frozen during a specific frame sequence AND the player is within a certain range of the character.

So there is a lot of flexibility there.
