Shaddex Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Dont quote me on this but I think they are coded into the client so I would say No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarSeekerVDS Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 It would be necessary to make new animations for the character ones, so that's likely impossible... as for the ship ones, it's just a set of maneuvers. It might be a client thing but it isn't necessary for them to be; there could be a simple file somewhere that just creates the list of maneuvers that the client then reads off, if so that file might be editable. But I don't know either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghent96 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Character animations are a *.w3d file and each is referenced to words in chat in an .ini file. Possible to create new ones. Ship emotes _i think_ are opcodes sent by the client. Unless there is a way to make some server scripts for movement respond to new slash commands from chat, these may be impossible to create :/ It may be possible, though, since /roll, /spin, /wave, etc all work as chat commands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tienbau Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Ghent has more of a handle on the avatar emotes than me but as far as ship emotes go - they are hardcoded ... BUT it could be possible to script some forced ship emotes by sending packet sequences. Although it's really difficult to hard control the ships smoothly from the server. Maybe some proxy-side movement scripts could be used - with a simple interface it might be possible for player made emote ship scripts for sharing, although you'd need to trigger them through '/' commands. And we got a whole queen-mary-2 load of stuff to do before we'd even think about things like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
