I like have tried times to set alterable values, i have set it to always set alterable value I random (2) and it doesnt work. I got three different deaths i need to get fixed. they either all play the same death when i kill them close together in time and they wont play a certain animation now. You guys know the best way to set this up to make it pretty random like in metal slug games where they got multiple death sounds and animations. Thanks! Is it really worth it to go onto the battlefield? I GOT A CUSTOM RATING SEE??? http://www.freewebs.com/tiredfreakedoutproductions/ http://www.weirdogamez.com

Which will give you a random death animation. You can also set up what sounds play during those deaths along with the animation. Or you can make them random even to the animation by setting up a new Alterable value called "Death sound effects" or something like that and do the same thing as the death animation. Hope that makes sense and if not I'm more than happy to help out some more. http://www.invincibletime.com/ Devlog for HD MMF Game Omulus.

Trooper_959 The Stupid Rebel Registered 02/11/2007 Points 213	28th April, 2009 at 01:56:34 - lol yea but the sound and animations all go on the same value and stuff. youll see what i mean once i give out a beta of my game Is it really worth it to go onto the battlefield? I GOT A CUSTOM RATING SEE??? http://www.freewebs.com/tiredfreakedoutproductions/ http://www.weirdogamez.com
0ko Registered 11/01/2009 Points 318	28th April, 2009 at 01:58:26 - why not just use my method for animations then apply the sounds for specific animations? w/e both ways are good Mine might just be 25% quicker,that's all. Edited by 0ko n/a
Trooper_959 The Stupid Rebel Registered 02/11/2007 Points 213	28th April, 2009 at 02:06:36 - it works perfectly its a little to late to change but i think ours are about the same lol but then again this has to work for a metal slug game Is it really worth it to go onto the battlefield?
