Awesome! I hoped so much for a jellyfish! I was too shy to ask, because animating a jelly must be really strange and unique.

An OT question: Do you know if it´s possible to place objects at the seaground without editing the map? Thought about some underwater scenario, like corals, stone formations and plants. The trick would be to place them. Maybe you have a hint for me.

[Sealife 22]

hmm setposASL - whatever number i think there is a new one called SetposASLW or something check BIKI i know there is a way because i put a cave on the ground under sea justcant remember what it was , but even if you set below seabed the land contact should still set it on top of it

[Baraka 10]

AH! The whale is even more epic! Stop it please, this massive attack of awesomness. When you go on, the next DLC is an empty water world. With

Kevin Costner and the Man from Atlantis as Chars.

Thromp you rock, you know that , right?

[HorbeySpector 164]

awesome!

[Woodpeckersam 18]

Hey how is the mod going? =)

Just a thought, this would be great to go alongside Stratis-RP

[bad benson 1733]

this is so refreshing. i hope you release an early test version soon so we can have some fun with it.

one suggestion. slow down the whale animations to half the speed. he's huge. make him move slow and gently.

it should look more like slow motion

keep it up. awesome stuff!

Hi , I am currently learning animation via youtube in blender , I am very happy I have learned FSM to create neural network for mamals and fish for feeding and hunting , I am happy I have models and license to release , now just creating skeleton , rigging and skinning in blender I hope then a relwase 6-8 weeks

Thanks for interest

[froggyluv 2130]

Sounds great -can't wait but take your time!

[soolie 189]

Thanks Thromp, cant wait for this release!

[weedman 10]

take your time mate as this is a learning experience for you no doubt. Maybe you could think about adding other objects like jellyfish,octopus etc.. (just a suggestion), looking real good btw

[-KH-Matt 10]

Everything is possible in Armas long as you have imagination and belief :)

So Thromp, how are you going from Blender to O2 with your animations? Are you rigging in blender and then doing the animations in ofp anim?

[Sealife 22]

Ones in video are ofp anim

The ones I working on now are blender to bvh hacker to 02 , im waiting for full release though , I switched to Dev version and had a torrid time keeping up , altho it got me closer to a more in tune config , I decided ill wait till full release now so I dont have to keep updating inheritannce and some FSM changes .

Forgot to mention weighting final is done in o2

Thromp now Sealife

Good to hear that... Big fan of your project. Any plans of making scary shark atack animation combined with player's struggle animation - something like in Far Cry 3?. It would be great if, when shark grab you for the first time you have this animation of struggling with him (let's say that it is bitting your hand), then he let go (if it isn't extra hard, some "key control to press" implemantation to free yourself would be nice). If shark grab you for the second time you are dead :)

Can you add dolphins based on the real life dolphins which live in the real world waters off of Lemnos and Agios Efstratios?

And have predatory behavior like one animal eating another?

[mistyronin 1181]

Any military uses for them? Like detecting enemy divers or mines? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_dolphin

One word. MEGALODON.

[topas 1]

I'm genuinely pleased and happy to see someone is taking care of this aspect.

The new engine, lighting and environments in general are extremely appealing in visual terms. The most time I spend in the new A3 world is observing sunrises, diving or just being a passenger in a car traveling from one corner of the map to the opposite one. Yesterday I was using the inbuilt camera tool to photograph bees and butterflies. maybe it's not the most proper way to be playing a mil-sim per se... but one just can't resist the sheer beauty of the game. This world just screams for being filled with life and I'm happy to see some nice specimens on the horizon. Please do keep this up! Thromp [now Sealife] :)

PS: Oh, and +1 vote on the request above /\ :P
