bandits a17

[Hexster]

Do any of the mods have any bandits working in a17? Ive managed to get them all but working the only thing I cant get them to do is wander or move at all they will attack anything that gets close.

 

[KhaineGB]

No.

Apparently there's no animations tied to the controller for UMA Survivors/Bandits.

UMA zombies still work.

 

[stallionsden]

Yeh bandits are dead Caput lol removed the uma for them when they updated the ai

 

[SlicksGirl]

AND MODDERS EVERYWHERE WEPT IN HORRER... THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE SADDEST CHANGE..

Bring back our npc's..

 

[Hexster]

So did they just remove the walk animation cause it has idle,attack,swing animations still working?

 

[Hexster]

Really the only animations that there not doing is walking and death

 

[Darkstardragon]

Yea, im not doing anything this alpha cause they took out the movement code for npcs. Was the only part of modding that interested me. Myself, khaine, beatkidz and others have looked at it and its just not happening unless someone codes it back into the dll.

This will get them to move around, but I got other errors im working on afterwards though. Play with it maybe we can combine testing

<property name="AvatarController" value="AvatarLocalPlayerController"/>

I will try using that with my one see if it works as I have no errors in my bandits other then they dont move lol or attack

 

[stallionsden]

They move but dont carry weapons all they do is run at ya lol

 

[Hexster]

I have a melee bandit walking and attacking killing zombies now but I got some errors to work out

Can you upload your code at all please

 

[stallionsden]

Got the bandits attacking the zs but no weapons

 

[Taylorsd]

Same problem im trying to get around, in initial Alpha 17 they carried weapons, but B208 made them lose them

 

[Hexster]

ya im at the same point I got ranged bandits roaming , shooting and killing zombies with a invisable gun if I can get the gun look to show up

the gun entity has to be armed to score damage one would think

Custom entities configured as bandits work well in A17.

Yea, we know this but we want uma npcs, not custom ones.

Use the range guy for a test the issues are a error from the controllers and invisable weapon which is caused by the player controller but he will roam ,kill , ect alittle to good

note this is a test model

The error from the controller only seems to happen when coming into range but gose away if ur right beside the bandit

The zombie01 controller has way better reaction time then the uma in this setup

If I had to guess the playercontroller is setting a handitem by default and its blocking or not letting the weapon mesh load in cause if u kill him the weapon appears
