Parkour Awesomeness (Should be in Xonotic) - Vael - 05-01-2010

I know it would be waaaay too much work to do, but it would be cool if you could do parkour stuff in Xonotic. It would require an insane amount of animation work, but I just got the idea from this video.

Anyways, we can all have our dreams.

PEW PEW!

Heh, I do all this stuff on the way home from a night out drinking.
And I can fly.
He does no flying at all.

Other than that awesome vid, thanks Big Grin

And everyone will need two of these to control it:

I'm not sure if my budget stretches to 17 buttons Sad

Nah, it would be way easier just to randomize the animation based on how high you go. Maybe a different selection for jumps from jumppads. Still a lot of work for graphic artists though, and not something I'd want to try to force in the game.

Yea! Reminds me of Mirror's Edge!

What´s the difference between free running and parkour?
Hmm I honestly like the idea Vael.
Ultimately it would be up to whomever handles animation. The problem is that xonotic NEEDS more animators atm and I´m not sure how high up the priority list freerunning/parkour animations would be purely on asthetic value. Although on the bright side I think everything that needs animation is a matter of asthetic anyway so it might have just as much merit as other animations wanted in xonotic. Smile

Essentially they are the same at the core, but parkour about efficiency, freerunning about cool tricks.

oooooohh! ty for that. then in essence xonotic already is a parkour game in terms of movement then.

re: brink

That game was an abomination to everything gaming should be.

The Parkour in "mirror's edge" was great though.
