Fix to sitting (and standing and sitting and standing) bug
« on: August 06, 2006, 01:29:42 pm »
I found a solution to the bug that makes sitting characters standup every 20 seconds. It appears a default idle animation kicks in after a random interval. My solution is to set this random interval really long, so it never starts the first time. This is not the perfect solution, which as far as I can see would mean a CS plugin should be changed.
For more info see bugtracker bug 2008 http://www.hydlaa.com/bugtracker/bug.php?op=show&bugid=2008 (sorry double for 1442  :oops: ).

Until a dev finds this and thinks it is a good solution and it is available through an update, you can fix it by following these steps:
1. download the 15k file via this link: http://tinyurl.com/hy7gk
2. extract the file somewhere. It should create 10 directories, each with one file
3. open characters.zip in the planeshift/art directory.
4. add the directories from the downloaded file to the zip file (in windows select them all and drag to the zip file)
5. close and save characters.zip

OR
1. dowload the complete characters.zip file (15Mb) via this link: http://tinyurl.com/ntxho
2. copy it to your planeshift/art directory, overwriting the old one


That should be all.

Actually, your report makes number 4 about it...  :P

I've made the changes to all the character's cal3d files on the art SVN.  Will be in next update/release.

Thanks, again.  This one has been annoying me for a while.
