    Default Custom Enemy, help with Bones, and Animation.

    Hello, I am in the prosses of making a game right now, and one of the enemies is called the "Crocdog", because it 1. has dog fur, 2. looks like a crocodile, and 3. has dog-like reflexes. I would liketo know is there a certain way I need to name my bones and if theres a certain way I have to name my animations? If so can someone post me all the names of bones and animations I need? I know how to skin, so thats not a problem. BTW, I have no experence at making enemies. Help would be nice, thankyou!

    If these help than great.













    EDIT: I have rigged/skined the Crocdog some what nicely, and am waiting for a reply. In the meanwhile I will get a attack animation setup.

    No, you can pretty much name your bones to whatever makes sense to you. Same with animations.

    The only times when you would want to pay attention to naming conventions is when you wanna make use of existing assets or scripts or something like that. Then you would match whatever was created there. Making a unique new creature or something else, you don't need to care about that really.

    Ok, thanks. So I have the anims done, what .UC/.ini file do I edit/ where do I put it to compile so I can add in the editor as a moving, attacking enemy so I can kill? And also when I added the skeletal mesh in, I could go right through it, how do I add collision?

    And also where can I find Xnasorcerers script?
