Four-Legged Walker Problems

Archive: 6 posts


Hi forum,

i'm in a bit of a pickle. I am creating a awsomo level which i am not at reasons to discuss which has been labelled "Project: NBT" In this level i am creating a four legged walker that will move through half of the level. I have devised a way of making it walk by attaching a leg to a large piece of material via a wobble bolt, set to 90 degrees rotation. Here is what i've come up with:

33031

Problem is.... the legs always keep failing. they either aren't in sync or can't move in the correct direction, or just won't move at all. Can someone please show me an alternative to this design or a tutorial?

Thanks. Your help is much appreciated.

You could use motor bolts and sequencers to control when different legs move. Then you could also play backwards through the sequence to walk backwards. You will probably also need some direction combines to move legs first forward then wait a bit til the other legs are in place then move it backwards.
Hope that helps good luck.

Or you could make your walkers body float, but still keep the legs moving. You see, even though it's floating it looks like it's walking. (hope I helped ^.^)2011-04-11 05:27:00

Here are two vids I found on youtube that might give you some ideas. Failing that there are plenty of them to look through.

if your legs are made up of two parts, make the bottom part have a gyroscope and have it hanging off of the top one and then have the top part be the moving leg.2011-04-12 07:03:00

Maybe try loading up the camel level in story mode to see how MM made it walk consistently?2011-04-12 12:06:00
