New zombies

I don't understand why the fuck when I change sprites of the zombies they don't attack anymore here's my modifications :

The problem is the frames (this is not he original frames from zombie, I changed them to adapt it to ZombieArm), when I change them the zombie don't attack anymore even if the frames looks beautiful, in return when I switch the frames to the original ones (from zombie) it works but it's really ugly, help please !
Same with zombie chicken.

 

Download and replace you modified .cfg file with the one attached in my post. Should fix it.

 

I don't want to make it looks like a standard zombie I already have the original files, I want to change sprites without it bugs...
Thanks anyway

 

Your grammar is really hard to understand, which is why I misunderstood you. I dont know bleep about KAG's .cfg files - perhaps one of the devs could help you out?

EDIT:

This thread should be under Modding.

 

I want to make a new zombie with differents sprites, here I want to make the ZombieArm which you can find in Entities/Actor/Sprites.
The problem is that when I change the sprite's frames the new zombie is not able to attack anymore, I would like to know how I can make him attack changing sprites, understand ?
Sorry I'm not english you know

 

As i recall Rayne has tryed that with byzons but has failed. So probebly not possible :S

 

THAT'S A PITY !

 

Try copying the original file (e.g.: ZombieKnight.png) and rename the new copy (e.g.: ZombieKnight Copy.png to MyNewZombie.png)
Then modify the sprite (draw someting new over it keeping the transparency).

I believe that depending on the zombie factory that the game uses, it expects a number of frames and a particular size for each frame to work correctly. For example, ZombieKnight (ZK) has 14 frames of 32x32 pixels each. ZombieArm (ZA) has 5 frames of 16x16 pixels each, so if you would try to replace the ZK sprite with the ZA one, you would get some weird shit moving around.

 

If I modify it people wont be able to see it like me in multiplayer (I want to add zombie to my server)

 

-wait- I MANAGED TO DO IT xD
Here:

Code:

# Skeleton config file
# $ string
# @ array
 
# sprite
 
$sprite_factory = zombie_sprite
 
$sprite_texture = Entities/Actors/Sprites/ZombieArm.png
s32_sprite_frame_width = 16

    f32_offset_x = 0.0
    f32_offset_y = -5.0
   
    $gib_type = predefined
    $gib_style = bone
    u8_gib_count = 1                    #number of gibs
    @u8_gib_frame = 1; 2; 3;

  u16_sprite_animation_walk_time = 5
  u8_sprite_animation_walk_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_walk_frames = 0; 1; 2; 3;
 
  # attack
  $sprite_animation_attack_name = attack
  u16_sprite_animation_attack_time = 3
  u8_sprite_animation_attack_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_attack_frames = 0; 1; 2; 3;
 
  # dead - should always gib
  $sprite_animation_dead_name = dead
  u16_sprite_animation_dead_time = 4

  @u16_sprite_animation_dead_frames = 3; 4; 4; 4;

  u16_sprite_animation_revive_time = 4
  u8_sprite_animation_revive_loop = 0
  @u16_sprite_animation_revive_frames = 0; 1; 2; 3;
 
  # climb
  $sprite_animation_climb_name = climb
  u16_sprite_animation_climb_time = 4
  u8_sprite_animation_climb_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_climb_frames = 0; 1; 2; 3;
 
  $sprite_animation_end = *end*
 
u16_attack_hit_frame = 3
$sprite_sound_attack =
$sprite_sound_spot = Entities/Actors/Sounds/SkeletonSayDuh.ogg
$sprite_bloodsquirt_file =
$sprite_bloodsmall_file = 

It works for me in single player. The only thing that changed apparently was the u16_attack_hit_frame = 3 variable, since frame 6 didn't have a sprite. I tested in SP and the arm attacks and moves as if it were a skeleton. Let me know if it worked for you :)

 

I want screen shots because I'm too lazy to download it myself.

Thanks it worked but I got the same problem with chicken how did u managed ?
I spent hours and hours and nothing lol

 

Same solution, make sure that the attack frame corresponds to an actual frame in the image (If the sprite has 10 frames, then attack frame has to be <= 9)

 

My chicken is good I guess but it don't works , look

Code:

  $sprite_animation_start = *start*

  # stand
  $sprite_animation_stand_name = stand
  u16_sprite_animation_stand_time = 4
  u8_sprite_animation_stand_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_stand_frames = 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 0; 9;

  # walk
  $sprite_animation_walk_name = walk
  u16_sprite_animation_walk_time = 5
  u8_sprite_animation_walk_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_walk_frames = 0; 1; 2; 3;

  # attack
  $sprite_animation_attack_name = attack
  u16_sprite_animation_attack_time = 3
  u8_sprite_animation_attack_loop = 1
  @u16_sprite_animation_attack_frames = 4; 4; 4; 4; 5; 5; 8; 9;

  # dead - should always gib
  $sprite_animation_dead_name = dead
  u16_sprite_animation_dead_time = 4
  u8_sprite_animation_dead_loop = 0
  @u16_sprite_animation_dead_frames = 6; 7;

  # revive
  $sprite_animation_revive_name = revive
  u16_sprite_animation_revive_time = 4
  u8_sprite_animation_revive_loop = 0
  @u16_sprite_animation_revive_frames = 10; 11;

  $sprite_animation_end = *end*

so what's wrong

 

Lol, dude, I'm not a script compiler xD Anyways, I've uploaded my chicken so that you could use it. You can then see what was the problem and hopefully post it here to help anyone else having the same problem :)

 

Thanks ! I will try to see

 

JackD, I used this code to add Zombie Arms and Chickens to BC Zombie CTF. Thanks a ton, Zombie Arms are so funny!
