Someone Help me animate these

ninja, stop it. your making me faint. man ur good!
btw, i tried the alien drone skin on the queen, it doesnt look bad.

Well ... If they need my work they will contact me for sure... I dont want to find someone to make a map with I want them to ask me ^_^
Oh I have made 2 new models il post them later

What I meant is you can share models, like "if you've done a facehugger and I've a chestburster, why don't we make an exchange?", you could save time and work that way.

Hmm... Good point

I have done face hugger and chestburster tought ^_^

My new models for you to animate if you like ^_^
And... If you like my models so much maby you can help me animate them
And Il make a map with special thanks to you...
And if you want, you can ofcourse go to the Avp mod forum and tell them about my models ?

Oh and armel... I dont want to model them as straigth its easier to do in some position as I drawed them first...
And I own it all to my brother who challenged me to make an alien queen model ^_^
And ofcourse Sierra for making an exelent game!

armel, what are matrix and ices? i looked in the forums but i couldnt find the answer.

ninja, your models are very good, but high poly. the queen is 1900 polys and the runner is 1400. thats alot, you mind want to reduce it.

Oh, I must have done a mistake: there are neither "matrix" or "ices", but only "matrices". There is such a section at the end of each geoset, the section itself is named "Groups" and is a list of "Matrices". And just for you to know, a matrix (matrices is the plural form) is a vector containing a few bones, and there is a little before in the geoset a section named "Vertexgroups" that says for each vertex (point) to which matrix it is linked, that is, which bones will make this point move (the matrices are refered to using their Id number in the vertexgroups section, the first one is number 0).
I won't have an internet connection before monday evening, you'll have to do without me until then, sorry.

Well, in fact I'm only interested because Aliens are sooo cool, I really lack time. I'm taking the time to teach Windrunner however because I believe though it can be longer than making it myself it is better to help someone understand how to do it himself than to make five requests.
As for these models, they are really cool, but same as for the other alien they really would need to be placed in another position, because else it will be hell to animate them from scratch (a thing that I can't do) and impossible to transfer anims to them with good results (since wc3 anims are supposed to apply to symetric models). It could be fixed of course, but that would mean a lot of editing, so I really advise you meke them symetrical if you want to stand a chance of seeing someone here ever animate them.
BTW never been to the AvP forums (never ever played it, to my great shame), I'm only in wc3.

so, should i skip the matrix part?
and with the part of geosetid and geosetanimid. geosetid is 1 and geosetanimid is none. it isnt 0 so should i still edit these parts?

Well I will not continue to make models based on Alien Versus Predator ...
Until these are animated :god_help_us:
What do you mean about symmetric ?
Maby Il go look the warcraft III models to figure it our or something

Well First I started from the face hugger but then I got addicted to it and I made The face hugger on head... Then I made the Egg and then the predator and then the predalien and then the Queen and last the runner...
Thanks for your compliments I think too that they are good...
Well my milkshape expired now
But...
I adjusted my computers date to yesterday and then back to today and it started to work again
Im making my last model now...
Il post it when its ready ^_^
And Armel too bad you cant connect to internet and help Windrunner...
I cant help him cause I dont Know a Sh*t about the animating on milkshape and its the only modeling program I have

yuo can also download gmax. its a stripped down version of 3ds max. but it can do almost everything 3ds max can do. and it doesnt expire! you can download it here: www.dicreet.com

EDIT: oh btw, semetric is that the model is the same at all sides. you made the alien like hes crawling. you can better make the tail straight and the rest of the body the same. so it is the same at both sides.

OK, I've corrected the mistake: I had written "matrix, or ices" as an abreviation for "matrix, or matrices" (i.e. one matrix or several matrices), sorry for not being clear.
Don't skip the matrix part: I've just taken a look at the alien model, and his first geoset (the one you'll get rid of) uses only one matrix with one bone (2), and since this matrix is not present in the second geoset's matrices list, what you can do is just add 1 to the two numbers before "Groups" in the second geoset (which is now the first one, since you should have deleted the first one) and add this line:
to its matrices list.

ok, i have added 1 to groups, and matrices { 2 },. did i do it the right way?
