Dota 2 Courier tools; projected ground for flying and treadmill for Couriers
polycounter lvl 6
I just wanted to make some tools I use when animating couriers available to others who are new to courier making that could help them with some of their animations.
Projected 'Death ground layer'
When animating the death animation for the flying you have the option to make the courier crash to the ground, but since the engine positions the origin of the courier in the air, you need to compenstate for that by adjusting the death to crash beneath the origin. With this .fbx you'll be able to not have to calculate the distance the courier has to travel. Just simply import it in and you'll have a new ground layer that projects where the ground would be in game.

Treadmill 'Ground run anim'
This .fbx includes an animated treadmill that is moving at the speed of the ground courier in game, so you can match up the animations to the speed the courier is moving.

Since these are .fbx you should be able to load them into whatever platform that supports the format. Cheers! :thumbup:

I may even use your treadmill, looks a bit more slick than mine.
