Custom 3D Player Model - crouch sequence?

Post by PixelWAD »

How to implement crouch sequence with MD3 models?
I have few frames of animation that I want to use for crouching but I do not see an easy way to do it.

https://zdoom.org/wiki/Crouching

https://zdoom.org/wiki/Actor_properties ... ouchSprite

Is not much much help as it does not mention anything about use of 3D models.

I know more or less how to use these models, I have made a custom monster before. However the crouchsprite only accepts for characters (so I can't specify which frame, for example MOD2 F), and it's also not an actor so the model is not linked to it anyway..

I have looked into Quake 2 stuff pk3 and they are using:

Code: Select all

Actor IsCrouching : InvBoolean {}
Actor IsNOTCrouching : InvBoolean {}
but I'm not even sure how to apply it here..

I know that I did it in my Gene-Tech mod (quite possibly borrowing code from the Q2 mod) but I don't remember how I did it. It might just be as simple as using the crouch sprite names in MODELDEF. Feel free to poke around inside the mod to see if it helps anyway.
