TEETH SPIKES
By Amber Light
One may somehow get confused when trying to place teeth spikes in knowing whether they should be set-up horizontally, vertically, etc…
I - THREE MAIN QUESTIONS
Basically, you must answer the following questions:
1-Room orientation : is your room oriented North-South (ie. “horizontally” in the Editor) :
or
East-West (ie “vertically” in the editor) ?
2 - Which direction Lara is looking to?
3 - Do you want spikes to stick out and in alternately, out constantly, or out and back in once only?
OCB settings will depend directly on these three points.
II-OCB SETTINGS :
Below are the OCB values to be entered in the teeth_spikes timer field, according to the answers to the 3 questions above :
1 – Room oriented North-South with Lara looking northwards:
Spikes out and in alternately......Spikes out constantly...... Spikes out and back in once
2 – Room oriented North-South with Lara looking southwards:
Spikes out and in alternately......Spikes out constantly...... Spikes out and back in once
3 – Room oriented East-West with Lara looking eastwards:
Spikes out and in alternately......Spikes out constantly...... Spikes out and back in once
4 – Room oriented East-West with Lara looking westwards:
Spikes out and in alternately......Spikes out constantly...... Spikes out and back in once
Reminder : select the teeth_spikes object, press O and enter OCB value as below :
