Light infantry animations...

[ellisam]

When I want my Light Infantry units to stand in line or column formation they always crouch. Can I change this so that they stand upright as normal infantry do?

yes, open the anim\battleconfiguration\men_musket simply replace the kneel animations (stand, kneel_combat ready, kneel_aim and so on) with suitable stand animations.

But then your infantry will never ever crouch.

But btw... could it be that your light infantry is "hidding" inside grass, when you want them to stay or did you toggle the light infantry behaviour?

Primergy. Thanks for your reply. No I make sure the ' light infantry behavior' is toggled off but I'm not sure what you mean when you say they might be hiding in grass. You say if I make the changes you mention they will never kneel. Does that mean they would never act and fight as light infantry?

If you want, you could change the DB table unit_stats_land so that the light infantry don't hide in as many places. Works for me, anyway.

Well some units have the ability to hide in woodland (on the battle map) and few light infantry units can hide in high and low grass .... so i want to know if your units are perhaps simply hidden.

It would be better to post a screenshot .

Ah right I see what you mean. Come to think of it I've only tried them on the Grassy Plain map. I'll try them in the desert and see what happens. Thanks again.
