Plugins + Scripts Movement

[ParticlePinnacle]

ParticlePinnacle submitted a new resource:

Movement - Move models by following atoms or controller clicks

The entire goal of this plugin is that you can have an atom move, align precisely to not screw up interaction animations, and exit from the animations in a walking segment, without messing up nodes. If you aren't moving the models, you can play whatever animations you want without the plugin triggering other animations.

Things you can accomplish:

To Use:
Have a single timeline added to a model and add the movement plugin to a person atom...

Wait...... We will FINALLY have the ability to have person atoms walk for animations/recording????? Is it finally real this time?

 

[ParticlePinnacle]

gotta derp in a basic walk cycle and idle thing with the person centered at the root, but yes

Just ran your demo scene and this plug-in is slick! This opens a lot of doors - or catwalks, alleys, strip stages, ... woot!

Heya, this thing is pretty awesome!

I have a couple questions, though; let me start with the "refresh" of the animations; short version is "what is the recommended way to 'rebake' once I've, for instance, changed my *on stop 1* anim?"

It seems very "sticky" on the settings if I do anything at all while playing, and unchecking Following doesn't 'rebake'. I've taken to actually CLEARING the plugin and re-adding it (because Reloading it does nothing!), but I have some of the parameters tweaked so it's a little annoying.

I have a little issue with balancing Alignment Distance, Time, Follow distance, but I'm getting it closer.

Segments. I haven't tried yet, but I'm going to presume that your plugin only looks at the first? segment or Segment 1? I want to be able to trigger different Segments in my scene, just have Segment 1 cover "Movement"

Under Animation Set, what does this mean?

And last for now, I haven't hooked up a controller or anything: do Left & Right only work with controllers?

(I had some problems running your demo scene, but I was able to figure out SOME of what was going on )

Thanks for the plugin! It is integral to the scene idea I have; I'll shoot you a preview if you want to keep chatting on my testing.
