Author Topic: more 'armed' poses  (Read 1705 times)

something i've really wanted in blockland is more flexibility for weapons, instead of just having the gun over your shoulder/in two hands/straight out with just one default armReady animation, can we get more animations?

like, having the hand lower then the shoulder but still pointing forward, like the engi in this picture
(having a two-handed version would be a nice touch, too)



and for melee weapons, sideways swings and diagonal swings along with just the standard up/down swing, possibly coupled with a pose where the hand is behind the head, like the crowbar armed pose in half life


I support this. Im getting tired of adding minifig hands to my weapons.

Try it with a real LEGO guy, yeah...

yea but this is an animation, Baddy can move the limbs whereever he wants.

How is he suppost to swing sideways?

Cut through his body?

Amen

I want swords that can block :(

That would be pretty cool. Epsecially if you had a lightsaber that could block. Hehe.

Why not just have a sword and a sheild, press one key to block and another to attack.  If you really want to get complex add in a Spartan style add in a push, here watch this if you don't know what I'm talking about.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmSIf6vUuCM

this is a very good idea



I support this too. It'd look nice, and who says the arms have to move like Lego guys? They're not even attached!!



EDIT: forget! I just realized the massive bump. Sorry, guys....

Its  only 2 days, not as big a bump as ive seen before

On-Topic; I would like this, the plain up-down swinging animations really bore me. i know its realistic for a Blocko/Lego man but surely you could get rid of some slight realism for something cooler, and the Hands aren't actually attatched to the body so you could swing somewhat sideways

i would like the kneeling position for when you stand still with a assault rifle like they do in the army
