All right, here's an interesting question. I'm attempting to modify the unarmed biped animations for filming purposes so that when the player runs forward, the biped instead walks using the calm, unarmed animation. My guess is that it would be switching a setting in the characters\cyborg\cyborg.model_animations tag, but I've messed with it and it doesn't seem to do much. Any suggestions?

Change the move-front animation reference under stand > unarmed to "alert unarmed move-front".

Thanks. It worked almost perfectly, though they are still moving forward at the same running speed, so it looks like they're sliding on ice. :P My next question would be, is there a way to slow down the actual biped movement?

Alternatively, if you're not into changing the player's move speed, you can rename the "alert" block (thing at the top) to "crouch", and make "crouch" "crouch1" or something in the animation tag.

I think I'm good with the first concept- I have it working ingame. However, I'm not sure I understand the second idea you mentioned, with the "crouch" renaming. It might be good to know multiple ways of achieving the correct speed. Any chance you could explain a little more? Thanks!

Rename the original "crouch" block to something else and rename the "alert" block to crouch. This will swap the two states and make pressing the crouch button switch to the alert anims instead of the crouch ones.

Be more specific. Just asking for help tells us nothing. What part do you need help with?

Change the move-front animation reference under stand > unarmed to "alert unarmed move-front".

I cant find this part in guerilla

I don't know why you'd want to use that, given that in the thread a more easy and reliable method was found. Just do the block renaming.

Unless you can be more specific, it's going to be hard to help you. Siliconmaster had no problems with the renaming method, so it obviously works. Maybe you should become more familiar with the HEK before trying something like this if it's giving you all this trouble?
