how to use getbonepos, aim calculations

[Diwiasln]

get bone position gets a result like get eye position

how can i fix that?

Is there any particular reason you're using GetBonePosition over GetHitboxPosition? Hitboxes are objectively better than bones.

EDIT: As for the actual reason why it's not working, I just tested it with my edit and it looks like you're unnecessarily doing *entity->GetBonePosition(8). Remove the * and it should work just fine.

if i romove * then

end i try gethitboxposition(8) same result
thanks for your answer

Not sure why it does that. I assume you can just remove the std::optional and replace it with Vector and change the corresponding entity.cpp function to match basic returns for Vector. That must have been added in a recent update; I'm being by quite a bit, just before the netvar change and I added just that over anything else. You may have to wait for qo0 to reply because I'm not familiar with std::optional.

i changed std::optional vector to vector

but i have a lot of error more :D

[Diwiasln]

oh okay i fixed error (just deleted :p)

and got some result :(

and i try again gethitboxposition and again some result :(

im working with an older version and its working perfectly, has the function changed?
Vector CBaseEntity::GetBonePosition(int iBone)
{
std::array<matrix3x4_t, MAXSTUDIOBONES> arrBonesToWorld;

if (this->SetupBones(arrBonesToWorld.data(), MAXSTUDIOBONES, BONE_USED_BY_ANYTHING, 0.f))
	return arrBonesToWorld.at(iBone).at(3);

return Vector{ };

}

also gethitboxposition is not objectively better

thanks for answer

i changed getboneposition code and got some result :'(

[reaperpaster]

auto bonePos = entity->GetBonePosition(BONE_HEAD).value()
You need to use auto or Vector.
Btw in your screenshot you did .value() and it said Vector doesn't have value() but GetBonePosition is std::optional Vector not Vector so you probably messed up with the code.

thanks for answer

i changed code like ur comment

but same result

about std::optional u can read here
so, u should check is it has value (with .has_value()) or just use .value() / .value_or(default value)
but u can notice problem isn't in getbonepos because ur calculations wrong and u should normalize calculated angle after subtract punch from it

pseudo:

QAngle angPunch = pLocal->GetPunch() * 2.0f // prefered weapon_recoil_scale instead hardcoded "2.0"
angPunch.Normalize();

QAngle angAim = M::CalcAngle(pLocal->GetEyePosition(), pEntity->GetBonePosition(BONE_HEAD).value()) - (pCmd->angViewPoint + angPunch)
angAim.Normalize()

op didnt answered for 2 days, should be fixed. closed
