Portfolio > Videos > Grenade Throwback

This feature was a proof of concept ability that I created to prove that there are possibilities for the manipulation of unspecified entities via the flowgraph system in CryENGINE2. The graph identifies the object the player is looking at as a grenade, then allows it to be manipulated and thrown away. Further development also achieved animating the throw, as well as a slight slowmotion effect to aid the difficult operation of picking up and returning the grenade. The video demonstrating how this works is shown below in a blank test map.

The full sized video can be found here at YouTube, along with more information. To show how this system was achieved, below is an image of the flowgraph itself. If you'd like to download this asset for use in Crysis, then you can do so from Crytek's official modding portal here.
