Marccom 0 Posted October 27, 2008 Hi guys, is someone out there who can give me a tip how it is possible to change the driver position of the driver of bikes and motorbikes? On TT650 and M1030 the driver has the arms in a short angle...i wanna change his arms reaching a bit longer. And the legs little more forward and the angle of knees closer to 90degrees. Thanks a lot Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poweruser 10 Posted October 27, 2008 You need to edit the driver animations of those bikes. \wheeled3\TT650\DATA\ANIM\TT650_Driver.rtm \wheeled3\M1030\DATA\ANIM\M1030_Driver.rtm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marccom 0 Posted October 27, 2008 ok, thanks...found that files and download the rtmtoolbox. I am sorry, but i cant right find the way how to use it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poweruser 10 Posted October 27, 2008 You can do that in Oxygen2PE as well. 1) Open a any soldier/civilian model (from the sample models) 2) Make sure the window "Animations" is displayed 3) Right click in the Animations window, select "From Matrices", choose the .rtm file you want to edit 4) You'll see 3 keyframes listed (in this example; could be way more) in the Animation Window, double click the one of phase 1 or 2 and the animation, defined by the .rtm, will be applied to the model in the View window 5) Now edit the driver position like you would edit any other model (moving/rotating/...) 6) When you're done, save it by right-clicking in the Animations window, select "Export Matrices" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marccom 0 Posted October 29, 2008 Hi, have a problem again: when i updated the sitting positions and try to export the matrices O2 shows failure messages "coordinates for "..." not found" ("..." = f.e. NVG, proxies,...) though all parts are there. After showing all failure messages O2 is crashing and all work is for the wastecan. Tried it three times now. What is the problem?

Marccom 0 Posted October 29, 2008 Hi, ok...cant reach a progress on this problem. tried several more times but cant export the animations to a rtm-file. O2 is crashing everytime. Cant find the failure. Nobody an idea? Greets Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marccom 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Hi, ok...animations in O2 are not working. two possibilities: 1. O2 crashes wihle exporting the matrices 2. O2 saves and exports the matrices but shows fully disformed p3d after reopening. Someone another idea to make working anims for bike sitting?

Mateck 0 Posted October 31, 2008 I'm having the same problem with O2. Currently I'm using RtmToolBox to edit and save animation and O2 to view the changes. In RtmToolBox You need to open *.rtm file. Under Component linking select part of the body that You want to translate or rotate and click on it with right mouse button to display actions. Edit, save and load it with O2 to see what happened Maybe this is not best way to create new animations but for editing static animations is enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marccom 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Ok, thanks...will try it. Greets Marc Edit: That will not work. I have to see the changes while editting. Other wise I had to start 2 programs after every little change. So it woeld take years till i had finished necessary changes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mateck 0 Posted October 31, 2008 Ok,Other wise I had to start 2 programs after every little change. Just don't close them . If You enable autosave option in RtmToolBox only thing You need to do is to load animation in O2 (3 clicks, 2 seconds). You can also check Maya RTM animation kit by teaCup, but this requires Autodesk Maya. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marccom 0 Posted November 1, 2008 Hi, I just downloades Maya PLE (free Learning Edition) and will try if the animation kit is working with it. If not i will try your suggested way with Toolbox. Will tell here what is working Greets Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marccom 0 Posted November 1, 2008 Hi again, ok the MayartmPack dont work with MayaPLE because the pack needs *.ma and the PLE version works with *.mp But the way Mateck described with RTMToolbox is not so unfine as i originally thought. Most important: Its working! Some more work and a bit long winded...but working. I will do it further this way. Thanks Mateck! Greets Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
