What do you mean with "stop"? Freezing the whole player model? That may be complicated.

Haven't played the game, but usually, something like that is speed relative, not coordinate relative. Try looking at coordinate structure and altering float values (usually 1.0).

If you find it, you might not be able to set the value to 0, you might have to set it to 0.0000001 (or similar).

i didn't find the char speed,

but a user of the forum said:

"
Find their char speed and set it to zero.

Or freeze all of their x,y,z co-ordinates.

Or my favorite freeze game scripts, needs some debugging but you can usually find a spot which only deals with enemies. This achieves true freezing of enemies as all of their scripts are frozen. To show you what i mean, check this out (http://youtu.be/OZsHKt-7MXk?t=18s ). Its very game-specific though and you can't always find it. I have been able to in rage, cod and battlefield 3 and look at the huge comedic effect of it in the video, haven't really tried it on other games though.

What did he mean with his third sentence?

In theory, you should be able to backtrace from enemy movement (coordinates, for example), and find the routine that gets called before the character can move or the animation plays out. By not allowing that to happen, you should be able to freeze whatever you want.

Generally, as previously stated, I don't have to do that because I can usually find the character speed quickly and easily. However, if you can manage to backtrace the code and find a way to prohibit movement altogether, that would prove to be more ideal.

Also, freezing coordinates will not produce the result in the video. If you freeze a character's coordinates, they can still move, they just can't move from that xyz position.

Thanks alot methos

another little question:

i did dissect data and found all the coordinates but not the speed

here's a screen..

advices?

In almost all cases, character speed is stored as float type 1.0 by default. That said, there are no rules.

If you can't find it in your coordinate structure, it may just not be there. However, you can do a search on the main interface and just limit your search so that the results include your structure and try to find it that way. You could be missing it in your structure table that CE auto-generates, or, it could be further down the line.
