PatriotGuy Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 If new third-person animations are too contrived to be worth creating, then how will npcs look when using these new weapons (especially the guns whose predecessors have reloads that do not even partially correspond to the new model)?

antistar Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 How will they look? Not great. You sort of answered your own question there. ;) As I understand it (I haven't done this kind of animation myself in over a decade) - and like I was saying earlier - third person weapon animations are extremely difficult and time-consuming to do. (Unless you've got some mocap to work from.) So it's unfortunate, but unless someone steps forward with the time and ability to take that on, the third-person animations aren't going to match up well.

Longstrider92 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 We will be too busy enjoying the weapons and the new first person animations to notice the enemies 3rd person animations its not like it will be game breaking for them to use vanilla animations.

me07 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Got a question about the AR 15. Will it have an A1 style handguards option ?? I notice that you added the old school M203, So why not also add the old school A1 style handguards. And maybe an A1 upper receiver to complete the retro look.

TheCourier13 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) The M1 Garand and SVT40 gun mods are proof that proper third person animations are possible, I just wish that Bethesda had simply ported over the New Vegas 1st and 3rd person weapon animations, that would have solved most of the issues right there. And the lack of third person bolt animations vs. New Vegas, there's really no excuse for that in my opinion. I'm just glad you're willing to leave these weapons as a modders resource so we can have then in game.

hitman47101 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'm not doing 3rd person anims under any circumstances, frankly I don't care if other weapon mods have them, I'm simply not going to do anymore then what I've already done for a pump action. If you have a problem with that then find another mod, basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protatato Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Speaking of animations, great work on the L85A1, just now saw it! Honestly, your custom animations are all great looking and are part of why I'm so excited for this mod, and I'm sure a lot of other people feel the same way.

Longstrider92 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 No worries hitman i have loved all of your animations so far mate. Thank you for the work you have been doing for our community. Did you ever get to enjoy fallout 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to have an A1 style handguard in there. (This is what we're talking about for people who don't know.) I wasn't able to find a good resource for one, but I may be able to "roll my own" as it were, if I get time. Or maybe I'll have more luck this time if I have another look around for a resource. I can't really give it an A1 upper receiver option though, as those have an integrated carry handle and I need it to be detachable for the sake of all the other sight/scope options.

You should look at Stoy79 (Heffy)'s (AKs and AR15s Weapons Pack) mod for Fallout NV. He made a XM16E and a M16A1. I hope those are a good resource.
