LAxemann's "Mount" - Animations for attaching rifle items

[laxemann 1673]

LAxemann's "Mount"

What it does?

Simple thing, it adds animations when attaching (mounting) or detaching (dismounting) rifle items such as scopes and silencers in order to make gameplay a little bit more realistic.

Also, it prevents people from swapping around stuff in no time.

What can you show us?

W... known issues

• The feature only works for rifles/primary weapons since there are no animations for pistols

Where can we download it?

Nice, really smooth and fluid animations. Small, but bound to make a difference in the pacing of combat.

Great mod to see, I've wanted something like this for a while.

Very nice, i wonder why bis didnt put this feature in by themselves!

Well, judging by the presence of animations for this in Arma 3 I assume they wanted to at one point, but as with most things 'something happened' and they weren't used.

Very nice of you to bring this into the game finally! There are also some nice grenade throw animations present (hint! hint! hint!)

this looks real nice, something bis could look at for added immersion

Amazing! Nice job :)

Not sure if I am the only one, however when using this I experience the following pop-up error when either mounting or removing any optics:

On the upside, once you hit OK it doesn't keep popping up, and it keeps working. I tried it with both vanilla and my usual setup, and it happens both times for me. But other than that, it's friggen awesome! Definitely a keeper in my book. :D

Whoops, as good as fixed I guess, just having dinner, updating then :)

There we go:

Fixed Version 1.1

The error shouldn't occur anymore. :)

Oh, also, since I'm short on time, I totally forgot if other people can see the animations in MP, just tell me in case you find it out before I do. :)

I get a bug whereby if I'm prone and try and change a scope it locks me in the "in-Gear" animation and i cannot seem to get out or re-enter the Inventory ?

Had to DC and re-load.

While I'm reading this my ArmA is loading a hopefully fixed version :)

This means another update (2 in one day)... dammit.

This is why I'm not rushing ES. :)

// EDIT:

There we go, new update to version 1.2

1.2 - Prone Fix

• players won't get stuck in prone position anymore (auto-crouching)

Good job on this. Needed. ;)

[serjames 357]

Thanks LAxemann, almost there... ;P

I noticed that prone works great now.

However it does force you into a crouching position ? Can this be adjusted to remain prone ?

One last little detail, I spotted that when you change scopes in prone, the new scope "appears" for a second before the animation starts to replace it ? Not a killer bug, but if it can be adjusted out would make this perfect.

I don't know about anyone else, But I think the "animation" or at least the time delay should be longer for scopers... to simulate the correct fitting and alignment, which must take a bit longer than 3 seconds or so ? Any other POV ? Nothing worse than getting caught in an animation when a taki walks around the corner but I think the level of detail this has brought deserves respect ?

I'm glad you put this animation to work :D

Hey LAxemann,

do you think about implementing this into AGM?

[corporal_lib[br] 396]

Just a headsup: it seems that a reloaded mission - even with Moduload - breaks the animation, making it a infinite loop with a pause of 3 seconds (in which you can try to toggle or toss your primary weapon to stop the loop)... it seems that the acessory doesn´t attach/dettach so the mod keeps replaying the animation... it happened while playing whole lotta Altis (SP version) so it may be caused by some of his lotsa scripts, I´ll investigate more, but be aware that maybe there´s an issue with reloaded missions =P

On a first tried mission, it worked flawlessly ;)

Hmm, I usually don't play SP and are still busy with ES, but I'll look into that as soon as I've got some time :)

[13islucky 10]

CSE, as in ACSE? Or am I out of my element, Donny?

I am the walrus​
