Springheel@Posted: Sun Sep 17, 2006 3:43 pm Post subject: Using Inverse Kinematics with Custom AI: We're not looking to do anything fancy, but we'd like to be able to use the IK system to make our AI climb stairs correctly like the default D3 models do. Our AI 'bounce' up quite rigidly as they climb, probably because we have no idea what to do with the IK stuff in the def file.

We basically copied over the IK info from the id humanoids:

Quote:

"ik_numLegs" "2"
"ik_footSize" "4"
"ik_waist" "Body"
"ik_hip1" "Lupleg"
"ik_hip2" "Rupleg"
"ik_knee1" "Lloleg"
"ik_knee2" "Rloleg"
"ik_ankle1" "Lankle_r"
"ik_ankle2" "Rankle_r"
"ik_dir1" "Lknee"
"ik_dir2" "Rknee"
"ik_foot1" "Lball_r"
"ik_foot2" "Rball_r"

But we have no idea what to do with it. Anyone know what has to be done to get the IK variables working properly?

But there is a small amount on www.iddevnet.com...
