This is my first. There will be more. Try as I did, begging, pleading, no-one else would do them so now I gotta.
Damn you all!! wink.gif

And though some will not be available until the movie comes out in a year or two, I will make some available for free as they are created.smile.gif


See it in action here:
http://www.moviestorm.co.uk/community/inde...p;vid_id=107841

Get the latest addon here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51344100/Spear.addon

This is the latest update which includes throwing the spear.
The throwing set becomes available from the "carry spear" animation.
You can "draw spear", "draw loop", "fake throw", "throw" and "stand down" which will return you to the "carry spear" stance. Once the spear is thrown the sequence is done. You have to start a new one when he runs to get his spear.smile.gif

If you have animations on set from the previous version that don't work with the new version you can delete the addon and load the old one to remove existing spear animations then update to the latest update. I testing it with existing animations though and did not encounter any issues so it should be fine.

Enjoy!

this looks like a fantastic mod, and some great animations.

to lay down the gauntlet, so speak, and I dont know if it would be possible, but how about adding a throwing animation, (perhaps by modifying the throw snowball animation)

I do plan on it but a proper one involves taking a step back and manipulating the lower body means repositioning the entire skeleton which is a bit tricky. I need more experience first.smile.gif

I went to late on it last night and had to sleep. I figured, 'easy to extend the scene. A few minutes with the video then a quick upload to MS replacing the previous demo.

What could go wrong?

Damn these delays. wink.gif

haha nice.

I think the problem is that well animating is a bit of a puzzle using the moviestorm stuff not as straight forward as making the actual objects unless of course you own 3dsmax then its a bit easier.

grats on the work as we claw our way through the mountains of information and poke and prod at cheaper bits of software may we all emerge victorious in our struggle to animate!
