Ever though of doing CTF-1on1-Joust.. and actually jousting?

Well.. you can get a bit closer to the actual thing using melee weapons. Granted its not a horse and a lance, but its so satisfying...

because to get them to work we would have to completely redo the Skeliton for it and then set up new animations. and at approximatly 100 and some animations im getting just a bit exausted LOL

with the skaarj the current melee anims work fine. So luckily we dont have to make a full new set for them because of their tail

well,cant you duplicate most of the animations becouse there isnt much of a difference in claw/hand movement between a claw spin or a dagger spin

Actualy, Providing that i could get hold of the mesh, the precess would be something like this:

1. edit the skeliton to add bones for the claws. ( takes about 5 Min)
2. remap the Vertexes to the new skeliton ( could take a verry long time)
3. recreate the animations ( *, could take a few weeks)

* The dagger animations turn the wrist as to stick the attached blade out and not the fist. hence the player would endup hitting his enemy with the wrist instead of the claws.

Ofcourse, this would all be dependant of getting the mesh, but its not possable to extract it from the editor, and its just a bit too much work to be able to only be used on one model.
