[Trajan]

I will be going away for five weeks people, so I hope you will be satisfied with my pack for now. I'll be back just around the time of the expansion, which is cool

If you're going away on vacation, what a great way to come back with the expanison out. Have you're self a good time Sig. You're 7.1 animation pack will keep me more than busy until BI comes out.

[al-caid]

Enjoy the vacation, you deserve it for the good work ;D

It's coming out in Sept. Not sure when exactly but CA confirmed a Sept. release. When I reserved my copy, they told me it would come out in October, which made me happy because I wanted CA to take their time with it but September seems fine with me.

Well its good news and bad, good news is the CTD problem was a coincidence with my install of his animations, bad news its something up with my system and this game. :-( Even the vanilla is CTD during battles only on campaign battles its wierd. But I think my Video card or CPU may be over heating during gameplay and causing a glitch. I tried reversing drivers etc. No go. Good news is I can still work on the mod and have it working and ok for everyone escept myself. lol So hopefullly I will get these issues resolved. I shelves RTW for a while and always redo my system OS every 2 months. I'll be having to trouble shoot it for a while.

I'm glad its not the pack because I love the new animations, my only hope is that he makes a chariot javelin also.

Thanks guys,

Quick question about the Triarii

Are you supposed to/able to give the Triarii the fs_s1_gladius animation? It looks strange when my Legion is standing there no wild cheering, yet as the third line (the Triarii) is cheering like a barbarian would.

Oh and also, can someone list all the units that use Phalanx (with their descr_model_battle listing?). I have it modded so that every unit that is supposed to have phalanx, doesn't have it, and no secondary sword, but I haven't given them all the fs_s1_hoplite animation, because I don't know every singe unit that uses the Phalanx. I belive that has something to do with the CTD's I've been getting since I tried the removing the sword and phalanx ability.

Hey signifer. . .

I have come to realize that somewhere along the line, the hoplite animation seems to have become fouled up again.

Firstly, when they charge, they all hold their spears backwards again.


Secondly, when they attack, the spear changes from from to back, especially when the hoplite draws back his spear.


lastly, when the hoplite is struck, the spear also flips around.


I have the latest version. Please tell me whats going on...

edit- i also tried it in .65 and it happens, though to a lesser extent (mostly when struck)

Found answer.

Coulda linked me, Prof. Had to search through a few pages to find the answer.

[Prof]

and i have told him the same a few pages ago and he already answered it...

[Virgil]

and i have told him the same a few pages ago and he already answered it...

yes, thats true. But that was on the third page and was a few versions ago. I had come to believe that it was a totally new skeleton in this latest pack. He told us about new charges and blocks and a whole slew of things. Now if I am mistaken and it is still the javelinman .cas, then I know what the problem is. I just thought it would be beneficsial to bring this up in case it was something he overlooked in his hard work.

[Chilly5]

the hoplite animations are supposed to be for hoplites Sole Survivor
phalangities are fine with the macedonian phalanx.
hoplites in vanilla:
militia hoplite
hoplite
armoured hoplite
spartan hoplite
sacred band
heavy spearmen
egyptian hoplites should be phalangities
spear warband phalanx is supposed to represent shield wall

phalagities:
levy pikemen
phalanx pikemen
bronze shields
silver shields
royal pikemen

[Virgil]

i know! I only use the hoplite animation on milita, regular, armored, and spartan hoplites. That is not the problem. The problem seems to be with the skeleton itself.

[Chilly5]

"Sole Survivor" that was directed to Sole Survivor not you hey! your using my hoplite skin! *is proud* i made a v2 that has the scales intervauling in a different pattern and i think it looks better that way, i suggest you use that.

[Virgil]

yeah, those pics were from an earlier time, before i found v2. I use it now

[Chilly5]

ok

[Sole Survivor]

@Chilly5

Yea, I figured it out shortly after I added -show_err to the end of the target line in the shortcut

Thanks though, cause if I hadn't found that -show_err thing, I would have been racking my brain (and files) for why said thing was happening.

Now, about those Triarii...

[Virgil]

I dont think the triarii are supposed to have it. The gladius animation is for the legions, not the spearmen. The will either ctd or look really weird if you give it to them.

[Sole Survivor]

I know that, I was thinking along more of the lines that the Triarii need a custom animation or something that gets rid of their cheering. In mid game, before the Reforms, my lines are always Hastati, second line Principes, then Triarii. I was talking about how its weird that the first two lines don't cheer, yet the last line does.

[nightwar]

Im still not sure about the Heavy horse animation.It seems they run at 9 mph.Heavy infantry can "almost"run after them and there so slow archers tear my horses up.also i notice romans at attention will "stretch" there necks but i think they do it to far.it almost looks like there double jointedLOL.just some things i notice pls dont take it wrong way i love the "free" work youve done and use em myself.
