Mouth animations....
 

Hi,
in which file can I find the mouth animation code for a model. (the code that makes the models in single player cutscenes moving their mouths when they speak)?

Re: Mouth animations....
 

Uhh... It's not scripting which is responsible for that but just re-weighting the model.

Re: Mouth animations....
 

Why would you need to re-weight a model to get mouth animations..?

Re: Mouth animations....
 

Well if the mouth doesn't move during taunts and such, obviously the face isn't weighted properly.

Re: Mouth animations....
 

Surely the actual animations arent anything to do with weighting are they?

Re: Mouth animations....
 

The actual animation data is in the _humanoid.gla but I don't believe that is what is being asked for. Do you mean where in the code does it talk about the FACE_TALK1 animations and such like?

If a model is not weighted properly it can't play the animations from the _humanoid.gla so in that sense yes. Some weighters don't bother to weight the face which means, of course, no facial animations are displayed.

Oh i see, but what i was impying was you dont need to weigh the model again if it has already been weighed properly to play mouth talking animations?

Re: Mouth animations....
 

Without weighting the model wouldn't move at all it will just slide along the map with the arms at the side.

Re: Mouth animations....
 

If it already plays them then no, why would it :confused: ?

I was curious if the person asking was talking about default models.
