Great addition even if it's a bit wierd to see footmen as spearthrower :D
Got some problems:

  • Check visibilites for all geosets

  • Edit position of the shield

  • Need to set the animations to work for these geosets
  • Helmet hair not animation / tabard cloth not animated / pauldron & hand armor collisions and bit streaching

Update:
For immersion should add the spears on he's back like I did for the brigand here Better Bandits
Can you my geoset and take the nodes I set for the brigand. They work well ;)

Thanks for this amazing feedback. I can edit some models but I'm still kinda new. I tried to figure out where finde the visibility ect. only think I did for now was the shield and I added those spears on he's back. 😅
in the .txt you can see the timings of the objects (geosets) and set them there to 1 or 0
 
is your spearman blinking during attack? or just me? because I'm close to having a footman group as the bandits creeps ;_;

the mercenary footman would have been cool, but in the end they sound like flesh when hit, since they are mercenaries, inmersion gone to shit xD, left them as the normal guys.

Hi,
this unit sadly seems a bit bugged for me - the attack animation is just looping between attacks. Is this an issue with the unit or with m editor or something?
Can you help me with this?

thank you!

I don't know what you mean, can you send a screenshot or video?
I have attached a (Shity, sorry, had to film on my phone) video, that should show the looping attack Animation.

I have given the unit a very obvious projectile to make it more visible

Thanks!

Oh yeah, the animation is set to loop, otherwise the model would blink after every attack. I tried to fix it, but the only thing that fixed it was setting the animation to loop, so sorry, but if I fixed it, it would create worse visual problem.
