So I have been working with opengl for a bit now and I can now load in a large collection of objects and create some pretty cool scenes. but as always, it is not enough… the objects I currently load in have no moving parts, which makes them kind of boring… I would like to try and make something similiar to temple run, with a main character that runs… how would I go about doing this, animating a human model that is?
I suppose I could load every body part in as a different model and have predefined positions to place the parts… then I could rotate the parts and create a sort of animation, but looking at temple run, or any of its copycat remakes the models seem to have a very fluid movement, and it seems like there is probably an easier way…
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance for any help/resources…
