Yeah, I thought that too at first glance

i would suggest changing the name to something like "Antlion Inverse Kinematics" or "Reenabled IK for antlions" because someone could mistake this for a '1K' reskin.

According to my master, it seems like it's probably some weird long lost issue with Source when EP2 was being developed. They even disabled turning animations because of this and still haven't re-enabled it.
The file has this comment "FIXME: IK disabled until bugs corrected - jdw"

why was this disabled in the first place?

@MuhNamesGreen

It has come to my attention that THG cannot claim any credit for this mod anyway. Everything was already there, but FNAF wasn't enabled so go ahead!

are you ok with my using this for a mod im working on? i'll credit you, or if youre not ok with it ill remove it

Yes. You'll need the modelsrc files from the HL2 Repo with the episodes merged.
Copy "AntLion_XSI_ik.qc" into another file and replace "AntLion_reference.smd" and the LODs with your own models.

Would there be a way to implement this for remodels manually?

@whirrring Haven't tried it myself but you could potentially enable FNAF in the debug console, once enabled go to Settings > Minge > Set "SKRINGE" to 3.5

Alright, thanks.

No. The feature has to be added manually by the mod author since the timing data for foot placements would be different. I'm not sure if that mod already does this or not.

Is this compatible with the HL:A Antlion animations mod?

You should probably change the title name so people subscribed the mod won't mistaken this as a 1K reskin mod rather than a remodel mod

what other creatures should have inverse kinematics

Strider already has that iirc.

wonder if you can do the striders

Yes, I have a large pack of improvements for human npcs in the works.

Looks nice, are you going to do animation improve/fixes for all npcs?

@ƒlechette Yeah dw it'll be fixed in the next update

Yes and yes. Thanks for finding that out

Is antlion_gib_large_1 (the wing) showing skin 3 in place of skin 4 a bug? If so, will it be fixed?

oh this is amazing

can you put ik on headcrabs aswell?

Either it's another mod or you have too many mods installed and the game can't deal with that

I don't know why, but this kept crashing my game, and broke subtitles. Maybe it was conflicts with other mods I have, I don't know.

oh my peak

I brought back the animation "digout" so antlions can either walk out of burrows as usual or play this animation where they jump out. Usually unused animations are cut because they are to be level scripted or the code for them was removed. I still need to look more into which animations are unused across the entire game's models though.

also can you bring back some unused animations for the antlion guards and the normal antlions

what's next after this?

Oh shit peak

Anlion
