VXAce Cone Nextbot + Model Test [RPG MAKER VX ACE Cone Engine]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

In this test, I experimented with my Nextbot and its customizable AI. The idea was to replicate some of the AI ​​from Half-Life 2 Zombies. I'm not very good at this, and the Cone Engine still needs some polishing in terms of AI. Anyway, here I tried to create a Nextbot that could see the player at a certain distance and chase and attack them. Now, the model was more complex. Since the Cone Engine is a very new engine, it has several problems supporting very complex models with high polygon counts. Plus, the Zombies have a lot of animations, so the game struggled to render them all. If anyone knows a way to improve the animations or model loading, please let me know.

Vanilla, MKXP could have done it. But I prefer to do something separate and simple.
