i just noticed a small issue with the end of draw it freezes for like 1.5 seconds and then plays the idle in blender it doesn't do this watch this 5 second video to see exactly what's going on http://puu.sh/wzQFG/2f3f180402.mp4

ok thanks for helping me fix that other issue though

http://puu.sh/wua6m/ddee3b44ee.jpg trying to get the right side to be the same as left i can guess the left until it matches right but if there's a way to get it to be the same that would be good last question here's my finished 3rd person swing

https://gyazo.com/ee9bbd3a290051aff19c36fa2b071da2 as u can see there's some leg movement for realistic purposes but i think this will conflict when he walks and swings is there a seperate walk swing animation i couldn't find it this guy uses the medic bones how does the swing work exactly for walking it makes sense atm if he just stands still and swings but when he walks and does this how will it go exactly?

thanks most of my questions have been answered but what about the proper camera view for tf2 settings do know that?

OMG ITS FIXED HOW DID U DO THAT DUDE THANKS I LOVE YOU THAT CODE DID THE TRICK thats amazing umm few more questions if i may if u looked at the video u may notice the view is different from the blender screenshot the camera settings in blender are set up with field of view 60 which is my tf2 settings but it doesn't look the same what other setting am i missing to match the tf2 view and blender camera view to be the same

30 frames default draw animation my custom 1 is also 30 frames
here's the qc part for draw also i don't know how to play 1st person animations in the model viewer so i just test in game it would be good to know how to view it in model viewer though

$Sequence "bs_draw" {
"anims/draw_fixed.smd"
activity "ACT_MELEE_VM_DRAW" 1
{ event 5004 1 "Weapon_Machete.Draw" }
fadein 0.2
fadeout 0.2
node "raised"
fps 30
}

shall i post entire qc for you

ok so i made a custom draw out weapon animation and it works fine in blender but in game it plays it completely different not even close to my animation take a look here's my custom draw animation that i exported and put in the qc https://gyazo.com/0a0f492dadc055e2ecc4466729040f59 then in game it plays this http://puu.sh/wz63f/e6ca9b5f91.mp4 as you can see it's not even close to my custom 1 where is this animation comming from when i compile in the qc there was no errors meaning its using my animation but in game it's not the sword is already in the air which isn't realistic where as mine he pulls it out from his left holster whatever why is this happening i'm sick of these weird random unexplained issues if this helps you guys this animation uses Invserse kinematics which shouldn't be a problem since i used inverse kinematics before and it worked maybe 1st person is different someone please explain thanks


Edit: idle and swing work fine and both of those are custom why is it only draw that acts so weird

ok so i added a camera with the field of view 60 just like my team fortress settings viewmodel_fov 60 but it still doesn't match take a look at this http://puu.sh/wua6m/ddee3b44ee.jpg what else am i missing?

The easiest way is to create a Camera object at the right location. That way you can switch to the viewpoint easily. Change the Camera's field of view settings until they match the game's.

you mean put a camera here http://puu.sh/w1Yfo/c19e129c9a.jpg but how do we know it will be looking that direction in game what's the best way to get the perfect view for 1st person could u send me a gif on how it's done i'd appreciate that also when this is done how do i actually test it in game this is my 1st time working with 1st person animations i already know 3rd person what do i do in qc what do i compile what directory it goes all of this please explain all of this thanks all i know for sure it goes into the tf\custom\my_custom_stuff folder but i need to know the rest thanks

Hello there i got my 3rd person animation working and everything but 1st person is a bit tricky so 1st of all how do i figure out how the camera views the arms in 1st person view in blender i don't think there's a way to see how it will show up in game other then guessing the view from 1st person point of view default view for medic is http://puu.sh/w1bxp/ffd4efc642.jpg how do i check my custom 1 for eg i would like for it to look something like this http://puu.sh/w1bOH/9072e10acf.jpg but i manually moved it
to this position through blender in game it could be anywhere in actual game is there a way to know exactly how its going to look in game or you would have to test in game and go back in blender back and fourth trial and error if thats the case how do i even test my 1st person animation in game please reply with full details thanks
