If you are a skilled animator then yes, we could definitely use an animator for MERP & Blade, our lead animator has hands rather full with the rest of Middle Earth! It would be awesome if you could help creating more and better animations!

I tried to PM you my MSN address, but I got a notification you can't receive anymore messages.

Do you want to help with just Mounted Combat animations or also the foot combat?

EDIT: Just had a look at your website, you are an amazing animator!

You can add me, my msn is *************


I would gladly help with mounted and foot combat.


Thank you.

I added you to my MSN list yesterday, my address starts with "harmen". I'd rather not post my full address on public forums.

Do you plan to add bows as well ? However this is one of the things I am really waiting for ...such stuff will keep tes4 modding allive for a long time :foodndrink:

Big update!

I learnt animating myself about 10 days ago and have been animating like crazy. I created twohanded polearm attack animations, and implemented them in-game. I'm going to redo all animations seen in existing videos except for the ones I am showing you now:

Constructive criticism and suggestions concerning both scripts and animations are most welcome, as always!

:drool:

That looks freakin amazing! Great job! Now I cant to get ahold of this mod, its going to be teh bomb!

Thanks!

I'm getting a lot of positive feedback from a lot of people, it really motivates me to keep working on this, even though I'm now the sole author now and do everything alone. If I keep up this pace, I might be able to finish these same animations for one/twohanded blades/blunts and onehanded polearms in little more than a month, followed by a week or so of perfecting AI and implementing the speed vector calculations for "real" damage.


EDIT:

I forgot to mention, auto-blocking for the player is implemented now as well. Or else it would've been my lifeless character sliding over the ledge, falling into nothingness.

Wow great stuff.

Will the auto block be togglable? Will there be a system like in Mount and Blade where you adjust the blocking depending on mouse and direct?

Yes. Manual blocking was the only thing in place before, I added auto-blocking as an option earlier today. I myself can't live without auto-block, but I admire those hardcoe enough to go manual.

Wow, this looks really nice! Those animations are really good, and with the blocking system :drool:

It's so awesome to see one of the best combat systems in a video game implemented into Oblivion, keep up the good work! :goodjob:

Haha! Amazing!

That's seriously awesome! Now I've got something new to keep my eyes on!
