Fixing attack animation of a model

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

Hey there!

I've found a bunch of models that gave me the idea to go back to work on my LOTR project (Peoples of Middle Earth). Among them, there was this uruk hai bowman with a buggy attack animation (the model don't put the arrow on the bow). I think it is edited from a WOW model. Could someone give me a hand in fixing this?

Thanks in advance!

Up!

Seems like this is the "stand ready" animation which is missing

What is wrong with stand ready animation missing? I never saw it be used in any game.

Stand Ready animation is used every time a unit's attack is on cooldown in combat.

I have just looked at the model, most of his attacking animations is for close combat. Maybe he's not design for firing arrow at all, like wc3 spirit walker... lol. Will he kick an arrow out while fighting?

It is supposed to fire an arrow on the regular attack anim. The proof is that this model exist with a sword too.

I might have messed up a little bit... got nothing to say

That's way better than before, thanks ! But would it be possible to make his body staying in the direction of shooting and straight on his feet after each shot instead to go back to "stand" animation?

In models without Stand Ready - Bandit/Footmen Stand-1 works as ready between attacks.

I guess this one is fine. My internet connection is a pain during these days so I'll stop for a while.
