Anyone found the Sexy Walk emote in that long list of  MOV?

I forget the exact name but look for one called something like "walk cycle". It will animate even while you're standing still, but while moving the motions will match themselves to your speed. It's a bit of a brisk pace, like one of those power walkers that do laps around the food court in the mall, but overall it looks pretty smooth.

My God...I wanna cry!!!!!! I get to recreate my characters (mostly) and zoom around all the zones. I almost can't believe it!! This community really is the very best!   

[pmoyer]

It is very nice being able to use emotes with /mov.  Anyone found the Sexy Walk emote in that long list of  MOV? Hoping powers are coming soon - they work in Character Creator, I hope they can soon work in Icon.  Seeing all these maps again makes me want to give a pile of Council some Street Justice.

The "PLAYER_WALK_*" MOVs seem to be the "sexy walk" that you get with female models, but I haven't had any luck getting it to trigger while moving the character.

Codewalker, OMG I cannot thank you enough for what you and others have done. I just ran across a post by accident about ICON and came here to sign up to say thanks. I was just telling someone a few days ago about the game and the 7 years I played and how I was making several videos using the demo editor and never got to finish them because I didn't feel like wading through demo files to find costume pieces to try to create what I wanted so now I can start work on finishing them!

Thank you!!!!!!

[DarthDelicious]

First.... *MAJOR SQUEEZING HUG* for the one(s) making the Icon stuff happening. It's so freaking awesome!

Now I have a question.
Is it possible to set a stance to both the character you log on to and all the NPC's you put in there? So they will stop the cycling through several and stick with the one you want?
And how do I do this, if it is possible?

*waves*

I just wasted the last four hours recreating 13 of my most played characters who's costumes I didn't have saved already, then assembling them into a group shot that I never would have found the time to demo edit together otherwise, all the while during time I should have spent being productive...



On the plus side, I enjoyed every minute of it...

Side note: Yeah, I know the typical tribute everyone does is suppose to have them all holding torches, but I couldn't get Cookie Thief to stop eating her cookies... She does love her some cookies...

That is awesome. What command do you use for this?

I had a 1 in a ten-trillion chance encounter with Freakshow one. Was fighting a group, killed one, got a purple. He rezzed. Killed him again, got a 2nd purple. Never happened again, but damn was that a shocker.

[Shenku]

That is awesome. What command do you use for this?

A combination of "/spawnnpc MiscNPCModelNameHere MyCharacterNameHere" then targeted them and followed up with "/load_costume CharacterCostumeFileNameHere" to replace their model with my character's costumes, and I just went through and spawned/replaced the NPCs with my characters one at a time, moved to the next spot and repeated. Took maybe twenty minutes to place them all, mostly cause I was trying to decide who was standing where. The most time conssuming part was trying to reverse engineer costumes from screenshots for most of those characters...

At some point, I'm going to do the other fourty some characters of mine from Victory Server, and get them all into a mass group shot, but the above characters were the more influential ones that I had made over my many years in Paragon, so I wanted to at least have a picture with all of them... Cowbell Hero (Don't ask...) and Captain Flapjack (Pancake Pirate themed Thugs/Traps MM, and I created him before the cartoon, dagnabbit!) and most of my other goofy non-serious characters can wait until then.

Codewalker and/or other associated entities: any chance of getting a program out there that can extract costume data from SentinelPlus files?

[The Fifth Horseman]

Sentinel records use XML format... open the file in Notepad and see what you get.

Something that will not import directly into the game client.  Hence my question.

[Arachnion]

Yeah, I just had a quick look at a Sentinel XML and a standard costume file.

It would require a bit of editing by hand, just to get one costume.

I am seeing lines which show up in regular costume files, that don't seem to show up in Sentinel XML costume blocks, however.

[Tacitala]

Yeah, I just had a quick look at a Sentinel XML and a standard costume file.

*pokes head in* I just did as well.  The notation Sentinel uses is the same as with demo files (which is why Demolition can directly use a Sentinel file to make a basic demo, I think) if that would help get things worked out.

It would require a bit of editing by hand, just to get one costume.

I saved off my costume files, but if I could work out how to translate by hand I'd be willing to do that for a friend who lost all of his costume files (but not his Sentinel files thankfully).  That would at least get him to be able to play in Icon, without having to try to work out the scales on his characters just from screenshots and demos.

Also, having just looked over her data again, I miss my namesake even more.

Found some old demo file format FAQ guide, had some costume format info, may still be useful.

Gonna make a new thread in Multimedia and stop clogging up this one.

Now to see which of the big monsters can do /em popdance...

Finally! Someone who has their priorities straight!

Oh, Ghu... This reminded me of the first time I was playing my Bots/Dark MM and had him set all his bots to doing the popdance... I lost it giggling; that animation on the bots -- doing it in a group, too -- just looked so wrong it was hilarious.

[Super Firebug]

Codewalker, from the bottom of my homesick heart, THANK YOU!

Found some more places - if you use no_clip and fly under the zones, sometimes you will see doors floating down there.  This lead to inside scenes like the hospital interior, the Atlas Vanguard lobby with the Rikti guy in it, etc.

The Arenas and the enhancement shops are under the map as well.  Usually they are slightly offset from their above ground actuals.  Now I understand why when I used to target friends when playing they would show up under the map.  "And the circle has closed..."

AH-HA!  Yep. Was finally able to walk around inside each of the Icon Shops (for some reason, you have to go further down in the Atlas shop than you do in Steel, IP, or FF).  Haven't tried the University in Steel...wonder if you can do that and see Monty?   (Sigh...now I want to go to the Midnighter arc LOL)
