Assets Renegade Project [DriverN Shooter system]

experimenting with something similar to IK


to be used for hit reaction

 

probably will call it fixerLookAt


changing the percentage of upperarm

 

also integrating community ocean
but it is 4 times the unity standard scale
and seems it doesn't work right with other scales

so had to make Renegade resizeable


little adjusted values and could raise boat mass to 20
and it could carry objects with low mass
in fact the boat doesn't like kinematic

 

exported a new demo out
http://www.mediafire.com/file/q0cl7hen8t1cicb/RGScene01.ZIP/file

 

adding ikccd


because spine ik effects hand ik
so had to make separate script
and in script execution order
make sure hands ik come after spine

also works without animation

 

experimental drifting (with wheelcollider)



drifting demo
upscaled 4 times (to be compatible with ocean)
it's actually better than regular scale, physics are different
http://www.mediafire.com/file/2l98kss9st1cnn2/RGScene02b.ZIP/file
with botos andrás made model

 

tried to achieve this with ik, but was problematic
then thought I can simply set to same rotation
and weight it with slerp

copying ragdoll
while using animator

 

ragdoll copy contd

not yet integrated, just test demo

 

and addin this trajectory prediction by Konstantinos Benos

with a bit of modif could predict realtime rigidbody trajectory
plan to use it for avoid and futureanimstate

 

after a lot of trials and errors
still there's more test to use IK for upperbody

 

now the anchor point is left shoulder (not the hip)
so can play animation on it
the hand is ccd by James B of Unity
looking for other ik solution for proper rotation


(this is rollin animation)

 

adding force to ragdoll

 

Awesome work. Nice job on the animations!

 

thanks.

again missed the most obvious solution
I can just copy the ragdoll rotations, don't need IK for that

using JamesB's ccd
also was able to achieve this
for localSpace rotations


here's the link to the package
https://forum.unity.com/threads/an-introduction-to-ccd-ik-and-how-to-use-it.537172/

 

added a behaviour-tree decision engine

it has nodes which are true or false
and the end node is the result sent to bhvControl
every data is converted to float (which can be equal, less, greater)

it is flexible and extendable
and the best thing, it can have more results

 

This is awesome. Good stuff. Keep it going

 

finalizing raycast control


there's at least 3 more missing yet for heights

 

the story goes like this: he had a friend who was part of a gang and got clipped. he goes on to revenge him and after a rampage he causes on the rival gang, he realizes, it's his life (which he avenges).

the Renegade series
: Seaside Nights (the ways of the hero)
: Cruisin the Town before Dawn (the birth of a legend)
: Racer Heists
: the Stunts

the gang he attacks works with money machines, the gang of "his friend" is a local gang of marines. some from the legiones, some from the secret police, but all they do is harass businessmen out of money. this money ends up in gambling sites. the gambling sites get pressured of of money... things escalate. get into a turmoil when Renegade meets with his destiny

he's the younger one, his friend is the older. he's a good card player, but sometimes looses. his co-players don't like if he runs into debts. because he's a big talker too, he likes to exxagarate, especially when he's drunk. so he gets notices, and his boys in the gang also are on edge, so things escalate and the young quiet boy realizes, his friend was a mean kill machine like he

this big talker hustler once ridin around his car, at four after all shops closed, sees the rival gang gettin ready to retaliate. this big talker gets curious, rings up his boys sleepy and hazy to end up video gaming and get the gears up, the rides up and the guards up, and do the first move before things escalate...

while killing off the vice executive of a money firm, the gang gets a note, that the gambling site is about to be raided next day. the wind got out of the police hq, and it all adds up. like fuel to flames in a case of money dealer's call from the office, that his supervisor is being killed off. so what looked like a good idea to go to the guy that owes him from the card party, which was not...


Alec, I love that Pivotal Moment theme!
it reminds me of Hakuryu's movies. japanese v-cinema, the best pictures.

 

Can I just ask is this system meant to help you make something like gta? Sorry for the noob question but I’m really interested in purchasing

 

Hey, i just saw this post and as a fellow developer trying to make assets, i think you should work a bit more on how your post looks, text and all! But cool work on the asset itself!

 

thanks.
Bonzotaz1, yeah that's what the objective is more less.
the scripting is simple and there's no editor scripting, virtual voids and things like that, so I guess it's easy to extend and modify,
but depending on what you want, there's quite a lot of things in wip stage yet.

I'd advise waiting two more updates, maybe at version 0.97-0.98 things will settle. (now is 0.94)

 

wip cover system (it doesn't use tags, detects multiple cover spots)

yellow ray : closest detected enemy
green : closest cover
white spheres : high and low cover
white eggs : cover spots
purple ring : closest spot


when going for cover, aiWalker takes over and goes for the closest spot
because there's more possible spots, might select another (based on enemy positions, or some other logic)

 

Alright cool thanks! Just wanted to ask maybe it’s just me but why does the demos have like different cameras and also maybe me but button inputs to play are weird? But I presume there is a reason behind why you have it like that

 

what do you mean? which one?

they are usually in the Keys class (here Ins in Renegade.cs)


the cameras are the same I guess with different settings

 

...

 

first tests of the ragCopy feature integration in Renegade

continuous ray target + hand adjustment offset

angular velocity transfer on ragdoll switched off
+ ragCopy (w delay)

 

fingers can be set and play set poses

 

ragCopy can do partial ragdoll

now two handed jump, grab and animated left leg
the last uploaded version had some issues w ragCopy
I'll upload fixed soon

 

used the same method for upBody as the Fingers
can record and play poses

it's a nice way to have another anim system to switch on when needed
to go into defense, reach etc...

 

your asset is the bomb, gta for android or gangster,top stuff

 

thanks

if you have questions, want to know how some things work, ask

 

added sequencing to upperbody moves

it can filter which limb is being used

I'm redoing the fightMechanics so it knows which limb does what
since the leftHand can be in defense while the rightHand is attacking
(it was universal before like: left punch [attack type and side])
plan to do it with animation events
and for this upBody player this complicates things (since it's not an anim clip)

 

I seriously would not had thought this will work
not using capsule on character, but on feet
at half timescale

will make it selectable caps/fullbody colliders
it has a different feel

this needed a bit of extra setup (w capsule meshes)

 

moving all jump from Renegade to JumpMechanics
moving input code from Renegade to Input4WayBlend
probably on separate script Fingers and Feet

to make it all more organized and cleaner

____________
update: there's no going back, Renegade is now going through refactor

 

the jumps got new mechanics

double jump
this needed a bit of hack (duplicate animstates) since self-transition was not working well


what you see here:
first jump: actor falls as it should
second jump: the full jump animation (with steps)
third jump: animation starts from jumping (no steps)


I really like how it's shaping up

still there's a margin of error

update: this was probablly because I forgot about animation event placed too soon

 

the jumps need 3 events: cantFall, canFall, canJumpAgain()
the ground heights are measured from the hip, and the two heels + on the foottips
can use any number of anims

Renegade Lite preview demo
http://www.mediafire.com/file/luc561zw63boqkw/RenegadeLite.zip/file


plan to release it for 15 USD
and later come out with
Renegade Soccer
Renegade Fighter

 

for Renegade will include truck driving control for next update
planned features: bows and arrows, horse riding, minimap
story element features: carjacking, keys, objInfo, messXChange (knowledge, development, tactics), eventAction (timed, actor evokes a future event), actionChain (predefined sequence of actions' effects chain)


FinalIK's new baker function makes it easy to create new animation variations


and cut up CMU's 1401 punch animations to clips
this is 5a b c in blend

 

punch direction by blend

 

issues on the path to grab'n'throw mechanic
yea, very suspicious that that is a gymbal lock

 

think I got this sorted out

 

and the end result

 

got this idea of mixing in irregular steps in


for this we need to know
which foot is on ground
which foot the next move starts with

the main difference is with what we had previously
that it was starting new move from a looped forward run and transition back to it,
now it can start a new move and keep starting again (depending on foot on the ground)

here is how it looks in third-person control

 

added left and right side
and modified blend tree for that



but probably animator doesn't update parameters if crossFade transitions are going on
so the side (PosX) doesn't change sometimes
update: no, parameter updates fine
(forgot to add the left/right anims to the other blend tree)



in the inspector:
jumps.style

starts on 2: means 2 feet
blendx is the animSelect parameter (posY of blendtree)
twoSides means there is left/right anim set

so this setting is for 90_080 in the blendree

 

slow progress (of transitioning to the new version of Renegade)

just realized you can copy-paste gameobjects between scenes


also because of a bodyPosition bug in mecanim, will have to redo part of the animator and code
multi-level blend trees like these probably exaggarate the problem

 

made a drift configurator
http://www.mediafire.com/file/s5wjxv8px4lhim4/drift1.zip/file


and a demo
http://www.mediafire.com/file/75ppakj0wkiafu4/drift2.zip/file

using digitalArtisan's model

 

Very interesting. Keep up the good work!

 

Thanks!

notes on rigging and re-targeting
some scans or models have a bit bad pose for legs.
a good T-pose have the legs a bit bent

see re-rigged version on the left
