[General] Mounting...Right!

[usfshihy]

I am making a map,where the hero could cast a certain spell-Mount Tiger where the hero plays an animation-called mount which it is him sitting and a special effect occurs on his origin which is a tiger model,then the hero increases in height thus the hero becomes smoothly mounted on the tiger.My problem is that I want the Special effect to play a certain animation on order.As when moving it moves and when holding position it stops.Yet I can't do that,either I give the tiger a run animation so it moves all the time non stop,or I give it a stand animation.
So it's kinda messed up and I need help.

+Rep and Credits for helpers!

easiest way is to get a model of ther hero on the mount

 

[usfshihy]

well it will be too big..WoW model

If you know how to animate and model things..

You need to know how to animate if you want to do your request or you can request to some modellers to create the model you want.

I dunno if it's possible to sync animations of both models but what if you just keep replacing the tiger with just different animations? It could work. I haven't tried it out though.

Try making the tiger a unit dude. And move him to the hero every .03.

That will quite bug especially when the tiger has a collision size. Also making it follow every 03 sec is quite not good to do especially it doesnt not really resemble a mounting animation.

@usfshihy

Try this link: Mount System

You can try looking at here and might found some solutions. They said messing with some abilties or attachments will work.

The OP could use a dummy unit with no collision. Wrathion was also to move the unit (maybe thru triggers) and not actually make the unit follow.

Most of the things mentioned here are mentioned in that thread too. So, most the was suggested here has flaws. I dunno if there's a more efficient way than using attachments or by using two units.

A move, yes instant move but still it makes the mount quite awkward that the feet is in the mount's body.
