Ok, so I was lucky enough to get hold of the Thunderguns knockdown anims

i set them up in zombiemode with this ( found this in the BO1 scripts ) :

Code Snippet

Plaintext

// ====================== THUNDERGUN ============================================
	if( !isDefined( level._zombie_knockdowns ) )
	{
		level._zombie_knockdowns = [];
	}
	level._zombie_knockdowns["zombie"] = [];
	level._zombie_knockdowns["zombie"]["front"] = [];
	level._zombie_knockdowns["zombie"]["front"]["no_legs"] = [];

	level._zombie_getups["zombie"]["belly"]["late"][1] = %ai_zombie_thundergun_getup_quick_a;
	// ====================== THUNDERGUN ============================================

whcih i placed just under the tesla stuff

then in zombie spawner, in the zombie_spawn_init( animname_set ) i added :

Code Snippet

Plaintext

self.thundergun_knockdown_func = ::zombie_knockdown;

and at the bottom i added :

Code Snippet

Plaintext

// ======================= THUNDERGUN ===========================================
zombie_knockdown( player, gib )
{
	if ( gib && !self.gibbed )
	{
		self.a.gib_ref = random( level.thundergun_gib_refs );
		self thread animscripts\death::do_gib();
	}
	self.thundergun_handle_pain_notetracks = maps\_zombiemode_weap_thundergun::handle_thundergun_pain_notetracks;
	self DoDamage( level.zombie_vars["thundergun_knockdown_damage"], player.origin, player );
}
// ======================= THUNDERGUN ===========================================

now, ive set the thundergun to literally only knock them down, im seeing the prints, but its making no difference to what anim they are playing

but i did noticed it "can" knock them over, just only when they are attacking a window and then they freeze?

Code Snippet

Plaintext

thundergun_knockdown_zombie( player, gib )
{
	self endon( "death" );
	playsoundatposition ("vox_thundergun_forcehit", self.origin);
	playsoundatposition ("wpn_thundergun_proj_impact", self.origin);


	if( !IsDefined( self ) || !IsAlive( self ) )
	{
		// guy died on us 
		return;
	}

	if ( IsDefined( self.thundergun_knockdown_func ) )
	{
		self [[ self.thundergun_knockdown_func ]]( player, gib );
	}
	else
	{
 
		self DoDamage( level.zombie_vars["thundergun_knockdown_damage"], player.origin, player );
 

 
	}
 
	if ( gib )
	{
		self.a.gib_ref = random( level.thundergun_gib_refs );
		self thread animscripts\zombie_death::do_gib();
	}

//	self playsound( "thundergun_impact" );
	self.thundergun_handle_pain_notetracks = ::handle_thundergun_pain_notetracks;
	self DoDamage( level.zombie_vars["thundergun_knockdown_damage"], player.origin, player );
	self playsound( "fly_thundergun_forcehit" );
 
}

handle_thundergun_pain_notetracks( note )
{
	if ( note == "zombie_knockdown_ground_impact" )
	{
		playfx( level._effect["thundergun_knockdown_ground"], self.origin, AnglesToForward( self.angles ), AnglesToUp( self.angles ) );
		self playsound( "fly_thundergun_forcehit" );
	}
}

This is my first time adding animations for AI, could some one help a dude out

You arent playing the anims anywhere, the Original anims in BO are handled in animscripts\pain. You can have a look in the BO one, i pretty much just copied that over to WaW.
The animscripts\pain.gsc for WaW wasn't in my raw by default, i had to extract it from zone\english\common.ff

i have that and have been looking through it, but i have no idea how to use it? lol

i found and took this from it and have been calling this :

Code Snippet

Plaintext

playThundergunPainAnim()
{
	iPrintLnBold( "Called Anim" );
	self notify( "end_play_thundergun_pain_anim" );
	self endon( "killanimscript" );
	self endon( "death" );
	self endon( "end_play_thundergun_pain_anim" );

	if( isDefined( self.marked_for_death ) && self.marked_for_death )
	{
		return;
	}	

	if ( self.damageYaw <= -135 || self.damageYaw >= 135 )
	{
		if ( !self.has_legs )
		{
			fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["front"]["no_legs"] );
 
			if ( isdefined( level.thundergun_last_knockdown_anim ) && level.thundergun_last_knockdown_anim == fallAnim )
			{
				fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["front"]["no_legs"] );
			}
		}
		else
		{
			fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["front"]["has_legs"] );
 
			if ( isdefined( level.thundergun_last_knockdown_anim ) && level.thundergun_last_knockdown_anim == fallAnim )
			{
				fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["front"]["has_legs"] );
			}
		}

		level.thundergun_last_knockdown_anim = fallAnim;
		if ( fallAnim == %ai_zombie_thundergun_hit_deadfallknee || fallAnim == %ai_zombie_thundergun_hit_forwardtoface )
		{
			getupAnim = random( level._zombie_getups[self.animname]["belly"]["early"] );
		}
		else
		{
			getupAnim = random( level._zombie_getups[self.animname]["back"]["early"] );
		}
	}
	else if ( self.damageYaw > -135 && self.damageYaw < -45 )
	{
		fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["left"] );
		getupAnim = random( level._zombie_getups[self.animname]["belly"]["early"] );
	}
	else if ( self.damageYaw > 45 && self.damageYaw < 135 )
	{
		fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["right"] );
		getupAnim = random( level._zombie_getups[self.animname]["belly"]["early"] );
	}
	else
	{
		fallAnim = random( level._zombie_knockdowns[self.animname]["back"] );
		getupAnim = random( level._zombie_getups[self.animname]["belly"]["early"] );
	}

	self SetFlaggedAnimKnobAllRestart( "painanim", fallAnim, %body, 1, .2, 1 );
	self animscripts\shared::DoNoteTracks( "painanim", self.thundergun_handle_pain_notetracks );

	if( !IsDefined( self ) || !IsAlive( self ) || !self.has_legs || (isDefined( self.marked_for_death ) && self.marked_for_death) )
	{
		// guy died on us 
		return;
	}	
	if ( getupAnim == %ai_zombie_thundergun_getup_quick_a && (self.a.gib_ref == "left_arm" || self.a.gib_ref == "right_arm") )
	{
		return;
	}

	self SetFlaggedAnimKnobAllRestart( "painanim", getupAnim, %body, 1, .2, 1 );
	self animscripts\shared::DoNoteTracks( "painanim" );
}

That should be threaded from the top of the pain.gsc somewhere when pain dealt by the thundergun is detected. Just search for the call to that function, may need to adjust that a bit for it to work
