You know, I *thikn* those KFs CAN be used to make a Dive Effect... Judging from the Screen Shots, it's possible-- maybe even included; I'll take a look, and give it a go, maybe

Well, good news/bad news: I CAN get the Animation to play, and make a kind of dive-- it's not perfect, but you have a key that turns your jump into a dive as long as it's held Unfortunately, I can't get the anim to automatically switch back to Walking after you release the key, and if you move whilst diving, it inverts the dive to a "diving forwards"

If someone can help solve them, then I can finish this I've some stuff to take care of away from CS, so it'll be a while until I'm back-- but hopefully I can have a release some time this evening (with glock3 getting full credit for the animations )

...I could make a dive-jump animation (http://www.gamesmuseum.uwaterloo.ca/Archives/Culin/Hawaii1899/graphics/diver.jpg), which would start from normal jump animation, and then bend like shown in the ref. picture. And of course automatically move forward, so there'd be no need to move the player with W (or whatever key you've chosen for forward animation) When I have the time, of course.

I'm going to have to suggest hoping Sami gets the time to do this-- I broke my own efforts trying to fix the error I mentioned above Now I remember why I don't use animations, lol!

Well, I think I've had enough of my current mod project for today, so I'll start working on that animation now

Great! Thank you!

I came across this mod the other day http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=30601, while not a diving mod there may be some hints in it as to how to trigger the animation. Also i haven't had a chance to try it yet, so not sure. Just seemed relevant.

This is how divers in rivers end in hospital. By the way, why there isn't a hospital in Cyrodiil?

I wish you luck. For purely selfish reasons of course

If there would be a diving animation to dive into water, then also when you simply jump of the roof of a building you will dive with your head down, isn't it? Or is it like possible to detect wether you are above water or not?

That's what i want to ask, Johny Obliv.

This seems like it could be pretty cool.

@Johny Obliv/Vintra - I believe CDM_ indicated that you would have to hold down a key to turn your jump anim into a dive anim. I think that may be the only way to do it- even with OBSE, I don't think there's a way to detect if you're over water, or "about" to dive into water.

I am working with the animation, as much as with the problem of the player detecting if there is water below or not. So far there has been little success, but I intend to somehow make a "sonar" that recognizes what is below the player in a fraction of a second. If not otherwise, I'll make an activator box over every deposit of water so that the player switches to the dive animation when in touch with the box

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63LhoVbSHh4 There's still LOTS to be done, and that is just the (pre-)first version lol As you can see, the animation needs fixing, and the script to call it came a little later than I'd wanted

Nice dive!

I think the diving animation might work better if it was triggered by the player since there might be cases when the animation triggers when it shouldn't.

It is currently triggered by pressing left ALT while moving forward. The only problem is that for some reason the script doesn't return IsInAir and IsOnGround functions so it doesn't know when to stop

That's awesome Sami.

Totally agree! Poor guy just got smashed... the animation of the diving looks great, just find a way to turn it on only over water... imagine Dive Rock...

However, your work is really impressive. Great dive!
