Ragdoll has no gravity

The Ragdoll worked good till I added (mystymoon).
Now it still works but there is no more gravity, I used for the grafity;
"ph_setgravity(vector(0, 0, -1500));"

"http://dl8.rapidshare.de/files/48696949/682793447/shot_0.jpg"

(Post me for more information)
And wenn the grafity works, everybody can copy it in his own projeckt, the die function is called "die_soldier()"

And I will post here the ragdollscript, when it`s ok?;

you need a hollow block around the level... also, this aint your code, it's mine, dont claim it's yours.

I didn`t saw that this code is from me, I sayèd "that code" not my code.

And is it realey from you? I got it out of the aum then I writen it alittlebit to an function (I think it was aum 83).

And why du I need a hollow block around the level to let the gravity work?

still thanks

Yes, it's really mine, but dont worry

Anyway, it's a common made user-error that people dont have a huge hollow block around their level. I quote from the manual:



and also:



Hope that helps, good luck
regards,

I works!
Thanks, thats very nice, just wright me if I can avenge

I have just one more questin.
So action ragdoll worked;
________________________________________________________________________________
ENTITY* actor;

action ragdoll()
{
actor = me;
wait (1);
my.event = die_soldier();
}
________________________________________________________________________________

But why does this don`t work?;

________________________________________________________________________________

function collision();
VECTOR speed;

action free_camera()
{
player = my;
my.skill1 = 1;
my.emask |= (ENABLE_IMPACT | ENABLE_ENTITY | ENABLE_BLOCK);
c_setminmax(me);
my.event = collision;
while (my.skill1 == 1)
{
c_move (my, vector(10 * (key_w - key_s) * time_step, 6 * (key_a - key_d) * time_step, 0), nullvector, GLIDE);
camera.genius = me;
camera.pan -= 15 * mouse_force.x * time_step;
camera.tilt += 15 * mouse_force.y * time_step;
camera.x = player.x - 200;
camera.y = player.y;

}
}

function collision()

Whats wronge here?
thanks
greads

I cant really see what you're trying to do?
can you explain that first I'll try to help you through this then.

regards,

I just want that my action free_camera turns into an ragdoll wenn it touthes somthing.
Then when it works here I can use it everyware

you're setting an even to another event, that wont work in this case
change the my.event = collision; in free_camera function to my.event = die_soldier;

(also dont add () behind that die_soldier function, it will not work properly otherwise).

regards,

Oh... (up`s)
Thank, again

hmm...
Do you think it is passable to make ragdolls only with bones?

....this is the same thing really. You can combine 3DGS functions to find the length of a bone, and then scale the model to fit before adding it to the physics system. Then you can create all your skeletons automatically.

The trick is to only create your skeleton of physics one you need them. Just animate the model as normal, then once you need them, call your function to create the skeleton, rotate it to match the current bones angles, then cancel your models animation function, and have it switch to a "matching the hinge angles" function. Then when your done with them, destroy the physics models, and have the bones do a blend into a "getting up" animation.

Yes, I tryed it, it works.
Were can I upload fotos?
