Fun with Ragdolls
2004-11-06, 5:30 PM #1
Yea well, after playing Counter-Strike: Source for a little while now, it is my opinion that the Source engine by far has the most realistic ragdoll physics ever seen. In alot of cases the way the bodies fall almost seem like they are actually animated. Here are some interesting screens I've taken while playing, that show what seem to be some exagerated effects of the physics engine. Feel free to post your wacky ragdolls from any game.

Look at that form! 10s across the board!

Holy crap, what are you feeding that thing?

And and post your favorite ragdolls in order:
1) Counter-Strike: Source
2) Far Cry
3) Painkiller
4) UT2004
5) Max Payne 2

I think Source is the most realistic and best looking game engine made thus far thats available. Everything in the game nearly acts 100% the way you think it would.

Notice the buttons from the keyboard, and computer parts:

Garbage cans knocked over, throw garbage about and tables break apart realistically:

those screenshots and your claims of realistic do not back one another up.
2004-11-06, 6:38 PM #8
95% percent of the time bodies fall and end up positioned just as you'd expect they should Septic. Those shots are the 5% exception. I'll get some shots of what the bodies usually look like in a sec...

that's what happens when you make your models left handed and mirror them for right hand

Halo ragdolls are pretty good too, I don't think anyone has posted that yet...
2004-11-07, 3:14 AM #23
because the ragdolls all end up laying flat in halo... unless their head gets stuck on part of the level...

the best part of halo's physics is when you get a good match going with infinite nades... me and a friend did this and we tried to see how long we could keep a warthog in the air

Yea, those are my screens, and the correct caption for the Jesus Christ one is something about snow angels.

And Halo doesn't really have ragdolls, it some sort of advanced animation.

Also Jim, what times do you usually play? I have you on Steam but never see you online. If you ever wanna play my Steam name is cddxtreme and my in-game handle is Dont Shoot Im White.

actually it does have some basic ragdolls... but it's not obvious because the bodies don't end up in weird positions... if you look at an enemy that lands on a rock it doesn't look like say... a non ragdoll game where you have this stiff as a board enemy floating on top of a rock

but my steam name is necropimp... i try to play a little every day

I always thought doom 3's ragdolls were VERY impressive...aswell as far cry's...

Halo's Ragdolls were pathetic when dead... only the ones that had just been shot were good, because they looked real when they flew through the air... and ever noticed when you grenade a dead body it waves its arms around?

Far Cry's ragdolls were better than CS:S. I find that CS:s looks pathetic...nobody would die like that 5% leading it to having bad physics in the end...

I thought the bodies in Doom3 "disintegrated" too fast to play with them. :/

Is that a custom model? I've stabbed hostages with my knife before, and blood never splattered on the models.

can you blow holes in walls and doors with more powerful weapons?

like a shotgun blast would punch a straight hole right through a standard interior door type affair.

Thats the tricky thing, if they made the doors out of the material "wood" and not just simple brushes, then yes, you could. Same goes for walls.

No, its up to the level designers. You could make complete destructable environments if you wanted too.
