[WIP] New Assault Rifle Animations

[Roostervier]

Ok, I just started this about an hour or so ago, of course starting with the origins. The only real animation that I have at the moment is the reload, which, I think looks great =p. Please give me your comments and criticism. Thanks.

NOTE: This is going to be used as both reloads.

[EDIT] Bah, stupid putfile keeps stretching the video. W/e.

Looks like a case of finger whiplash. Slow it down a bit, maybe?

That and I recommend you make MC palm the cocking lever fowards rather than grab it and push. Once he overcomes the force needed to unlock it, it should spring closed of its own accord.

Oh... my... GOD...

I literally rolled on the floor LAUGHING

Palm the cocking lever chief, don't grab it and push!

<_<

Don't care for the animation itself that much, I think the AR animations are fine the way they are. The firing sound for the AR sucks ass though, that's what it needs a new one of.

Hmm, lol. Anyway, yeah I had thoughts about it being springed and it woudl go back by itself, I'll give that a try.

Its getting there.

I didn't have time to work on the animation today, but I uploaded it to youtube for better quality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQGk3GG7f9M
Wait a bit if it isn't finished processing.

Sick freak.

But yeah. If you watch the current ones, he pulls it back and locks it into the notch at the rear, then pushes it down and it springs forwards. Pretty much identical to how you reload an MP40, actually.

I really wish I had the initiative to learn as much about guns as Ross knows. Animations look cool I think, except for that little thing everyone's mentioned already. Other then that it looks pretty fluent to me.

Snaf's knowledge of guns makes me look like a failure at life
