Pike Animation - IDEEN FÜR RYZOM - Ryzom Community-Forum

#1 Eingetragen von Thoruir(arispotle) vor 1 Jahrzehnt [en]

The pike animation during combat really needs some tweaking. I would love to keep using a pike, but I just cant stand to keep looking at it during combat. It is supposed to be a 2 handed weapon, however during combat the pike is held by one hand, extremely far behind the characters back with the pointy end facing the wrong direction. A more realistic and less awkward animation would be to hold the pike with 2 hands in front of the character between attacks, similar to how it is held while running around. Making this change might possibly be the best thing since sliced bread.

Thank you.

To add to this detail Throius, in detail, it would be nice if the pike was held properly during combat. the left hand at the top of the pike for accuracy and the right hand at the bottom for the power when stabbing.

Roll female, 'nuff said.

I do agree I'd like to see a different one for males though, and definitely for one-handers for both races. Let's swing our spear, 'round and 'round :P

How common is it for ideas in this section to get implemented into the game? I'm going to keep at the pike and hope for the best. Would it help if we all start chanting "Pike Pike Pike"?

would be easy enough to load up poser and come up with an animation.

Garuth -- If Poser would solve it, it would be simple, but I doubt very much that it is.

All -- I have a problem with the pike animation not for 1H vs 2H, but because a pike is a thrusting weapon and most of the animations show hacking with it. I could see swinging it around to get it in line, but the end of each animation should be a thrust, dammit, thrust!

-- sorry about that... Bittty

it would, poser can create animations in pretty much any format.

I imagine the original animateions were created on it or a program very similar.
