body parts

in the beta i think it would be cool if you could blow off peoples body parts like (arms,legs,ect...) and the nameks could reginerate there missing lims. but that might take a while to do all of that coding so i dont know. o well it is just a thought

hl cant support multi limb models very easly...

This was also suggested before....

sierra when did u become the person who states the obvouse and already known things?

I was telling him....

Oh and I learned from the spam master

well knock it off ...your just annoying...

DMZ did that and it wasn't nice..

You'd need to switch to the ghoul engine . . . never going to happen.

*Moves from ESF Chat to suggestions.

im sure with enough work, it'd be possible to make limbs fly off, i mean, they already are pushin the hl engine to the max

that would stink if both your arms got blown off... u couldnt do anything

Why not? Half-Life Mod 2338 has it, ur model doesnt have legs off, and it just switches to a model with 1 leg, 1 arm etc...
and on ur hud with ur body... Say u got ur right arm shot with the laser 9mm, it would cut ur arm off, so your right arm would be shown on ur green body (in ur hud) and the right arm would be pure red to show injury.
You Lose aim, and your model is changed to one with no right arm... Easy as pie for experienced coders like the ESF team, I mean the 2338 2.5 version is only 2mb download!!!
Or something like that, u gotta admit a 2mb download with a far more advanced model situation than ESF, a 40mb download?
The coder who did this was a kid. And most of the ESF team have a experience coding/degree and are 20+!
Just my little bit!
Peace!

Yeah the ghoul engine would be best suited for this feature (SOF II) its possible with the HL engine only thats alot of modeling work!

esf is not changing engines

end of story... topic should be closed...

Do you realize exactly how many models you are talking about? The mod would be hundreds of megs . . . yes, a model for every combination of lost limbs. The ghoul engine removes limbs on the fly, however, the models will suffer higher poly counts (just as if you had animated mouths). That would slow gameplay. Adding limb damage correctly is something that is probably never going to happen.

This idea blows, I'm with Hibiki 100% close this!!!!!!!!!!!
