Ok just drop the Hydra/Tentacle obssesion, ive played with both and they always suck, the hydra does the same movement animation over and over and attacks only from the left, its entertaining to put it with NPCs, but not in against a player. The tentacle is just boring.
if you want to see the hgrunt then do this with SV_cheats set to 1:
give monster_hgrunt --- it may be wrong, im kinda tired right now.

Here's a thought... would it be possible to code it so the new vehicle can pick up players as passengers and not just NPCs? I understand that is no easy task but think of the interesting gameplay it could offer...
Looking too far into the future here.. How big will that "Hunter" npc be? Small like a scanner or big like a gunship?
Valve have strider buster code in the sdk. But right now its just an object that sticks to the strider or walls. Would be easy to have it blow the strider up if shot at.
And the Hydra doesnt use animations, its bones are moved with uber Valve Math

This is Valve mathematics we're talking about. The actual answer is -5.

Nonono, the awnser is:
Code: Select all
void CNPC_Hydra::CalcGoalForces( )
{
int i;
int iFirst = 2;
int iLast = m_body.Count() - 1;
// keep head segment straight
m_body[iLast].vecGoalPos = m_vecHeadGoal; // + m_vecHeadDir * m_body[iLast-1].flActualLength;
m_body[iLast].flGoalInfluence = m_flHeadGoalInfluence;
m_body[iLast-1].vecGoalPos = m_vecHeadGoal - m_vecHeadDir * m_idealSegmentLength;
m_body[iLast-1].flGoalInfluence = 1.0; // m_flHeadGoalInfluence;
// momentum?
for (i = iFirst; i <= iLast; i++)
{
m_body[i].vecDelta = m_body[i].vecDelta * sv_hydraMomentum.GetFloat();
}
//Vector right, up;
//VectorVectors( m_vecHeadDir, right, up );
float flGoalSegmentLength = m_idealSegmentLength * ( m_idealLength / m_flCurrentLength);
(Theres more to it, but im not posting it all :X)

I actually agree with fragged on this one
GTFO NEWB!
the xbox version of Half Life 2 is terrible. So much longer loading times.
