    Default SigniferOne's animation mod and EB

    Will this mod work with EB? Or at least some of the animations? I mean, i just dug up the old SigniferOne topic, and wow, i'm impressed with what i've seen. I'm wondering If this mod is compatible with EB.

    And what is the EB team's thoughts on this animation mod?

    No mod works with EB. Or so I'm told. Modding EB is nothing like modding RTW.

    I believe he put restrictions on its use that would be incompatible with us using it. Alin has been working on some animations for us lately; maybe we'll see them in the patch.

    Just don't change the lancer cavalry animation. When they slowly march forward with their lances resting on their shoulders, it looks awesome!

    Ok, good. The compactness of hoplite units and the roman soldier fighting style are some of the best aspect of that animation mod. I'm confident alin is doing his best to be on par with the mod. The dodging, parrying, and all around fluid combat movements are great. The battles seem more fluid and realistic, too.

    Yeah and if they won't get in the next patch i will be releasing after or even before it an EB anim pack wich will be 1.2 and 1.5/6 compatible.

    There won't be any changes like that in the next patch related to animations, only fixes to the animations and some new animations that weren't finished in the ob.

    Right, I had some restrictions, namely that hoplite animation be only used for Hellenic or Italian factions, and gladius only for Romans, which EB didn't want to be constrained by. Either way it's not a problem for the player because when EB moves to 1.5/1.6, adding the animations by the player himself will not be too difficult.


    "If ye love wealth greater than liberty,
    the tranquility of servitude greater than
    the animating contest for freedom, go
    home from us in peace. We seek not
    your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch
    down and lick the hand that feeds you,
    and may posterity forget that ye were
    our countrymen."
    -Samuel Adams
