Make guns not clip into the ground

Post by cinos » Sun Jun 12, 2022 6:11 pm

See, a very obvious remnant from the HH-Eliatopia prototype days of the game is the way gunmen hold their guns, something especially noticeable with huge two handed rifles like the pellet spitter. First, here is how a gunman looks in Helmet Heroes, to remind you all where this default pose came from:

Notice how the gun is going straight down and it looks fine.
Now, here is how this pose looks in Eliatopia:
Image
Notice how the gun legit just clips into the ground. This is pretty obviously because the pose is a remnant from when it was used in a two dimensional environment. Now, it clashes heavily with the z-axis, and is clipping into the ground. For a long time, I never thought there was a viable fix to this, until transparency got added and I realized that you can make specific parts of a character transparent, leading into things like this:

I dunno the techno garble involved, but if we could have this instead of the gun clipping into the ground...well, that'd be swell.

Support, it makes holding two handed guns not look silly. Maybe he could hold the gun with his other hand instead of putting it down?

naw that'd be disorienting, it's why I recommended to add transparency and not just change the pose.

Speaking of making weapons actually look nice while holding them, whats the deal with Whips not being coiled up when holding it? It just does a 90 degree angle turn when you hold it

Pretty sure the odd shape the held whips are in is due to the uncurl animation being easier to implement that way.

I mean it's also easier to just let the gun clip into the floor...

It looks silly to me to be running around with a long, heavy gun when he's holding it in one hand and waving it hard. How strong is he lol.
