[Art Pipeline|SDKDOC3:Art Pipeline] Learn about the CryENGINE art pipeline, as well as content creation for objects, materials, textures, and animation. [Animation Compression Details|SDKDOC3:Resource Compiler#ResourceCompiler-AnimationCompressionDetails] Resource Compiler is a tool that runs in the background, however, it is often important to understand the reasons for why the RC exsists, as well as the essential role it plays in game development with the CryENGINE. [The Character Editor] Learn how to design and build characters with the Character Editor. [The Animation Graph 1.5] The Animation Graph controls the order of animations, as well as the transitions between them. Please refer to the sub-pages for tutorials on performing specific Animation Graph functions. [Locomotion Groups|SDKDOC3:Locomotion Groups] This topic contains an overview of locomotion groups and their types, as well as a creation workflow. [Locomotion Group Editor] The Locomotion Group Editor (LMG Editor), is a tool tailored to create LMG animations in a more interactive way than having to write the .lmg xml files by hand. [The CBA File|SDKDOC3:The CBA File] CryENGINE uses a highly optimized and compressed animation format, which requires additional information for preprocessing steps. The CBA file defines these parameters for animation file processing. [Mapping Animation Assets] The .chrparams file lists all animation asset filenames that the engine is supposed to load for a character and each asset gets assigned a new in-game name that is used everywhere in the engine. [Character Parameters File|SDKDOC3:Character Parameters File] Detailed information on all the definitions (LOD, IK, Animation Lists) specified in the .chrparams file for your character. +Note: Prior to CryEngine 3.3, there were three files - .setup, .cal and .ik. Now, these files have been merged into a single xml .chrparams file.+ [Fall and Play] Fall-and-Play is activated when a character is ragdollized with a >0 stiffness. [Inverse Kinematics in CryEngine3|SDKDOC3:Inverse Kinematics in CryENGINE 3] This section provides information on the different types of IK used in CryEngine3 and explains how to setup your character in order to use the inverse kinematics. [The AnimEvents and Tracks Database Files|SDKDOC3:The AnimEvents and Tracks Database Files] This page deals with the AnimEvent Database and the Tracks Database. [Footstep Markup|SDKDOC3:Footstep Markup] The Animation System supports time-aligned blending to counter artifacts on the legs and feet when blending between different locomotion assets linearly. [Hit and Death Reactions System|SDKDOC3:Hit and Death Reactions System] This system allows the game code to automatically execute a reaction that fits the context when a character is hit (HitReaction) or dies (DeathReaction). [Hinged Attachments|SDKDOC3:Hinged Attachments] Learn how to set up and used hinged attachments. [Facial Editor Tutorial] Learn how to use the Facial Editor, including information on the Effectors Sliders, the Expressions Explorer, the Sequence View, and Bone Controls in order to set up facial expressions. [Facial Editor Reference]

In

this topic, you will find comprehensive documentation about the features and settings of the Facial Editor. [Cooperative Animations System] This Document explains the Coop Anim System and demonstrates the process of setting up a cooperative animation on two characters using the FlowGraph. [Boids Setup|SDKDOC3:Boids Character Setup] Sharks serve as a method of keeping players inside the gameplay area, while boids are animals that cannot be directly controlled, but can be interacted with by the player. This topic contains setup information, as well as descriptions of the boid parameters.

Animation Asset Creation

Animation Startup Guide
The Animation Startup Guide is intended to serve as a roadmap providing comprehensive and easy to use information on creating and exporting animation assets for new users of CryEngine.

Exporting Animations
Learn how to export animations from 3ds Max to the Sandbox Editor.

Animating Turn Animations
This tutorial describes how to work with the locomotion locator.

Additive Animations
Additive animations preserve the underlying animation and style, which is good for adding poses and aniamtions to the upperbody.

Creating Additive Animations
This tutorial shows you how to create additive animations in your DCC tool and how you can make the most out of additive animations.

Creating Seamless Animation Loops
Learn how to create smooth animation loops without jerks.

Animation Manager
New Animation Manager, a tool that allows you to manage, view, load, save, batch retarget and batch export animations for multiple character types (characters and weapons).

Procedural Motion Baker
Learn how to use Procedural Motion Baker 5.1 to generate various things, like looping animations.

Mocap Cleanup
This tutorial describes the process of cleaning up motion capture footage in 3ds Max.

Facial Animation
This topic contains tutorials on the specific tools and setup requirements that are needed for animating faces.

角色和动画

在此章节，可以找到在 Sandbox 编辑器中设置角色和动画的说明，也可以找到将它们导入和导出的说明。

In This Topic

艺术流程 了解有关 CryENGINE 的艺术流程，以及对象、材质、纹理和动画的内容创建。

动画压缩细节 资源编译器是一个在后台运行的工具，但是理解 RC（资源编译器）存在的原因及其在 CryENGINE 游戏开发中的重要作用很重要。

角色编辑器 了解如何使用角色编辑器设计和构建角色。
