How to make the hand stay still when shooting? (FIXED)

[Barakuda]

Hello :3

I'm just making a sniper rifle, but it looks kinda funny because the blockhead gets his hand up, so we can't clearly see the animation :/
I'm using the gun script for the start.
The thing I was wondering was, how to make the arm hold still when shooting.

Thanks for your help :)

Bump :(

You have to remove a script part

[Barakuda]

You have to remove a script part

I know that, but I need to know waht part.

[julius]

one sec...
Remove this(?):

Code: [Select]

function <YOURWEAPONNAME>Image::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
if(%obj.getDamagePercent() < 1.0)
%obj.playThread(2, shiftAway);
Parent::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot);
}

[yndaaa]

Code: [Select]

//melee particles shoot from eye node for consistancy
   melee = false;
   //raise your arm up or not
   armReady = true;
i think this is what your looking for

[Barakuda]

I removed all that, so now the bottom part looks like this: (There isn't only sequence 4, It's just the bottomeest part of the .cs.

Code: [Select]

stateName[4] = "Reload";
stateSequence[4]                = "Reload";
stateTransitionOnTriggerUp[4]     = "Ready";
stateSequence[4] = "Ready";
}
But now, the weapon wont show ingame!

umm did you delete the //melee particles shoot from eye node for consistancy or did you edit it? If you deleted it then its bad :D

I don't know, I just deleted the thing you said.

Anyway, here is the whole script.

Since it all worked untill I deleted that part, I suggest you concentrate on that.

Bump.

[HellsHero]

The last } on the script needs a ; so, };

[Dante77]

I think you don't have to remove anything. You just have to replace this:

Code: [Select]

   //raise your arm up or not
   armReady = true;

For this:

Code: [Select]

   //raise your arm up or not
   armReady = false;

No that would make it so that the blockman wont be holding the weapon... It will just float in the air

Well, let's hope that the }; works!

EDIT: It works! Locking the topic now..
