View Full Version : Need a basic 10 to 15-frame walking animation for Michael 3

Well first off, hello to you all. I am an experienced modpack maker for Age of Empires 2 in need of something here. But before you wonder what an AoE2 modder is doing here, let me tell you that this place, with all the units being done here has become quite well known among us and it has become known to be useful for AoE2 modding as well as Civ 3 modding. But that's not quite what I'm here for even though I may consider using any of the units from here for my projects.

Anyway, the reason I'm here is that in Poser, I've been working on animating a unit for my modding project, but I can't get the unit's walking right in the walk designer. The base figure that I'm using is Michael 3. It seems to me that the walk designer doesn't work all too well with M3. So I need a basic 10-15 frame walking animatied pose that I can apply to my unit and edit it in any way I want. I already looked in the Poser animations library thread and downloaded the files, but it seems all there is there is running animations. I need a walking animation, so if anyone has a proper walking animation for M3, can you please post it for me? Thanks.

Terminus Est,
Welcome to CFC... Also, wrong forum, post threads like this in the main C&C forum (this is for completed units only).

The walk designed does work for M3, I've used it. You may want to repose the arms, but the leg and hip animations will translate well to M3. If you want a 15 frame animation (instead of the 30 in walk designer), delete every other frame and then move them all to the left. Let me know if you have any troubles.

Thread moved.

Most Civ III units tend to run rather than walk, because that just matches the movement speed of the standard ones. So I'm not sure how many people might have walking animations. I've done one or two, but only for the Paperdoll and also for Apollo Maximus, not Michael 3. Good luck though!
