Is there a way to make a ragdoll like character. If so, would you need separate entities and then attach them. or use another method? And if you use constraints how do you make it so the model is able to move? ~(anchor point stop movement)

This has been asked many times, please use the search button

..yes, you can make ragdoll physics in 3DGS

I have used the search feature but most of the posts are out dated or lack information so i created a specific thread on ragdoll. Plus, when i said is there a way i was asking for an example for the code. sorry if this wasn't seen in that way.

well, what part of code interests you?

The section to attach physics objects to a bone ready model which moves segments accordingly. any code will surely help.

If someone can tell me how to place a bone on a modelsposition I´m done with my (hopefully easy to use) ragdollsystem...
It would be great if someone could help me
Thanks,

well, last time i've done it i had no probems. i'll post code if i'll have time

I really badly need that code

ENTITY* create_bone(ENTITY* ent, STRING* parent, STRING* child)
{
VECTOR parent_pos;
VECTOR child_pos;
ANGLE bone_ang;
ENTITY* temp_bone;

vec_for_bone(parent_pos,ent,parent);
vec_for_bone(child_pos,ent,child);

vec_sub(child_pos,parent_pos);
vec_to_angle(bone_ang,child_pos);

temp_bone = ent_create("crate.mdl",parent_pos,0);
vec_set(temp_bone.pan,bone_ang);
temp_bone.scale_x = 0.1;
temp_bone.scale_y = 0.1;
temp_bone.scale_z = 0.1;
return(temp_bone);
}

use it like this

create_bone(doll,"ValveBiped.Bip01~17","ValveBiped.Bip01~18");
you = create_bone(doll,"ValveBiped.Bip01~30","ValveBiped.Bip01~31");
create_bone(doll,"ValveBiped.Bip01~11","ValveBiped.Bip01~12");
wait(-7);
ent_remove(you);//remove 2nd bone in 7 seconds for testing

Thanks for that code. I have modified it so it can work with my game. I do have another question. How do you update the bones position and angle according to where the new models position is?

I have enabled physics on each of the new models (at each bone parent) but I cant figure out the code to update the bone position on the model according to the parent position models.

Each parent model has its own action.
