I started on (basically) the same thing yesterday. I wanted to give ragdoll physics a go, so I'm trying to create a system that can automatically create the bone structure for you.


I realised that about two months ago, it is very easy and comfortable. So I`ll have to change the constraints from ph_ball to ph_hinge to get better looking physiks. My only problem is the movement of the bones with the physikentities.
I`m quite shure that you will come to the same point I am at... If you find a solution it would be awsome if you could share it. At least I will if I get something good looking working .

Helghast, your ragdoll looks as I may already told you some weeks ago very realistic and good.
It is very slow on the computer I`m actually at, but this one is full off viruses and stuff and very outdated. As I see, you haven`t found a better solution for your ent_next problem yet?
I`m looking forward to a final version and hope that you get many sales, though I`m not going to buy it

yeah, im at that point as well.
though i figured out how it all SHOULD work, the rotation of the bones never matches up XD but basically the rest is build in
(spawn actor around ragdoll, update position and pan, get bonestructure, etc etc).
uses a LOT of handles though, and im not sure about FPS impact for a full skeleton in a full game with shaders etc etc.
we'll find out when my demo is done ^_^

and yeah, the ent_next problem is still there with the wait.
but i think i know how to resolve that, just was too busy on other parts (and maybe even lazy:P).
