- Para_A has a PVA (vertex assignment) value of 6000 instead of the usual -2
- Para_A has no vertex assignments in its bones/joints
- None of them uses NumDoubleJoints
- Only raptors use interpolated joints, on bone 20 and with these values:
Code: Select all
Anim00 = 22 Anim01 = 16 Ratio = 0.500000 RotationRatio = 0.500000
- Only raptors have a NumJoints value of 23, all other bipeds have 21
- All quadrupeds have a NumJoints value of 29, in the retail they have different values
- In the retail, raptors have:
Code: Select all
int NumJoints = 21 int NumDoubleJoints = 6
- Interpolated raptor joints are 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26
- The para has 21 joints, no double/interpolated ones
- The albertasaur and rexes have 21 joints and 1 double, interpolated one is 22
- The brachi has 29 joints, no double/interpolated ones
- The steg has 30 joints and 2 double joints, interpolated ones are 30 and 31
- The trike has 31 joints and 4 double joints, interpolated ones are 31, 32, 33 and 34
- there are some predefined vertex assignments for certain meshes (for example, 6000 for the "old" Para), new ones use a value of -2 and t-scripts for vertex assignment instead
- the base biped skeleton (indicated by string Type = "Raptor" or "TRex", which are synonyms) has 21 bones/joints
- the base quadruped one (indicated by string Type = "Trike") has 29 bones/joints
- additional bones/joints can be added (yes, I'm being redundant)
- some of the new bones/joints can become double/interpolated, but they don't need to; I guess non-interpolated ones remain "static" relative to the "hip" bone and interpolated ones instead move together with the ones between which they're interpolated (Ratio and RotationRatio determining how much the Anim00 bone/joint influences the position and rotation over the Anim01 one)
Oh, and BTW... anybody attempting to discuss this outside this forum without my authorization will be tracked down, killed and skinned (and not necessarily in that order), his/her head will become a trophy on my wall, his/her skin a rug on my living room, and his/her bones chewing toys for my dogs. Trust me, I'll find out.
Have a nice day!
