Laughter animation - wouldn't it be nice?

Recommended Posts

I'm working on a mission now that requires one unit to be engaged in humorous conversation. Much to my dismay I've been unable to find an animation that shows a person laughing or being amused in any way.

I don't know how much work goes into an individual animation, but I just would like to plant the thought in the mind of the developers that a laughter animation (or multiple animations - laughing, laughing uncontrollably, knee-slapping laughter) would be a wonderful thing and add the potential for alot of new texture in missions. If working this into a future patch is a possibility, I would be be very pleased.

If anyone else would like to add their support to this suggestion, I would be grateful.

You can already set the gestures of characters within OFP.

The is a command to set a units face to smiling.

name SetMimic "Smile"

other:

Normal

Angry

Agresive

Cynic

Surprise

Hurt

Sad

Ironic

I dont think more than that are needed.

You're right about the setmimic command, but an animation is so much better I think. These angry/sad gestures really only affect the face, not the posture, body language, and movement of the individual. They would enhance a good laugh animation however! smile.gif

Imagine shooting someone in the middle of a laugh.

That would suck.
