position of animated mesh not node or bone position [solved]

[jsmurthy4]

Hi ,
what i want is an animated mesh moves from a place X to Y after reaching Y it plays some other animation and again it moves from Y to Z.

Its example i may have U V W X Y Z or more positions

It may contain repeated animation between UV, YZ and also animation's may picked by situations or randomly

So i created an animated mesh file (.x file). when i am playing animation in a loop it move from a place like X to Y and again it go back to X or if i play some other animation(same node) it again go to X and plays.

I use node->setPosition(core::vector3df(0,0,0));
When i play animation, character moves but its node position is still 0,0,0 how can i get position of animated mesh not node

please help me

Thank you all in advance

Is this because the animation of your model is moving the model from the model's origin rather than you moving it with you own code?

If so then the best solution that springs to mind would be to have a bone/joint in the model that's connected to a suitable part, perhaps the centre of the model. And you use that to find it's location. .X files support bones, as do .ms3d and .b3d.

Hi,
In animation, character moves but its node position is still 0,0,0 to get its exact position u need a particular bone position or to get a bone position in .X file format

Code: Select all

core::list<scene::ISceneNode*> lst;
scene::IBoneSceneNode *node3;
killer->setJointMode(scene::EJUOR_READ);  
scene::ISceneNode *node2=killer->getJointNode("Bip02");
lst=node2->getChildren();

core::list<scene::ISceneNode*>::Iterator psntnode;
core::list<scene::ISceneNode*>::Iterator endnode=lst.end();
					
for(psntnode=lst.begin();psntnode!=endnode;++psntnode)
 {
     node3=(scene::IBoneSceneNode *)*psntnode;
     core::stringc mystr=node3->getBoneName();
     if(mystr=="Bip02_Prop1")  //Name of the bone
           myresp::shoot(node3,vec);
 }

i thank some of the forum's to getting this code
