As you can guess I'm new to the forums, but I have been playing CC for a while. about 3 months.

Anyone willing to help a new guy out? I have a couple of questions and I need someone experienced to give me a tour of some kind.

*And just some quick facts:

I sprite fairly good,
I program computer games decently as well.
I'm into action and puzzle games.
I could probably take sprite/requests if you would like.

Ask away.

Thanks,

Anyawys I am trying to make my first character mod, and long story short,

Is there a way I can remove arms and legs, and just leave the feet?

Or atleast change the collision detection? because my character floats in the air and it kind of bothers me.

Try making the sprites for them one pixel in size, that might work. (note - untested)

Uh, make the legs have Base.rte/Null.bmp instead of the old sprite?
Are you trying to make invisible legs, or really really short legs so you have a waddling character? The suggestion will do the first one, and you have to modify the walkpaths to do the second one.

I wanted short legs. And as I said I'm new so I don't know how to modify walking paths.

And I already made the legs invisible, just so you know.

Ah, I see. Walkpaths are crafty beasts. I think if you want to shorten them you can simply halve or quarter the y values of the WalkLimbPath segments.
As a quick example, here is what I'm talking about.

Those who actually know these things, please correct me.

Sorry but that Didn't do anything at all. :[

welcome mrbird i too am working on my first mod (with a lot of help)
if you check out the mod making forum there is a lua sub-forum for programming
the people there maybe able to help you out and if you like i have a project in mod making where your help would be greatly appreciated

The best of modders have trouble with offsets and walkpaths, don't feel bad: just keep trying...
Good knowledge of maths tends to help...

I'm not exactly a mathematical wizard..


Also, some topics have cool looking mods but I can't find any download link, even though they say it should be up for download, heres an example -

April 1st incident. Follow rules as described in this thread.

Whew, thanks for the warning. I was fairly close to posting in one of those topics D:


Darn hackers..

zalo notwithstanding.

Walkpaths are easy when you know how they work, reading the tutorial should help with that.
