    [Suggestion] Standing pose options.

    Right now we have access to only one standing pose, which also is barely animated.

    You guys should add a line command to change the current default standing poses to one that already exist, like the one currently used by retainers, the one with crossed arms or the one with hands on the head.

    All these already exist...would just be nice to have a command line that allow us to change the default pose to one of those.

    EDIT: I was thinking...expanding tis idea, you guys could also add an idle animation, like there was at those old old RPGs, that worked like a "screensaver" of the character when it stayed idle for too long.

    Would be very nice we picking a few animations the one the charcter will do if it receives no input after a while. Who never left idle animation start at those old RPGs to see the character start scratching himself, falling aslep, dancing or doing some other animations...could even have one specific for each weapon, like the player sharpening his axe, sparring with his lance, etc.

    Would make all those idling chars seem more alive. Especially since the poses are already there and our characters are actually performing them on the character selection screens, so why not ingame?

    Yep, that's what i think too. They could add more ifle animation, but there's also many already ingame thatcould be used...its very boring seeing the characters standing there for hours without any movement.

    That's something possible they could later on, once the more important stuff is out of the way.

    I think suttle animations would apply more realism.

    Heya!

    I'm really longing for this! It definitely gives the character some life even if it's still and doing anything.

    My suggestion is:
    1. Idling in a normal day, there are 3 animations that randomly take on every 30 seconds or more.
    2. Idling in a rainy day, there are X animations about the character suffering the rain, covering its head or whatever cycling in some time spans.
    3. Idling in a windy or dusty day, the character will cover its face from dust or leaves.
    Maybe it would be possible to add animations of the character while walking in case of the last two points.
    What do you think about it?

    The concept is great! Maybe they can work into this after the main core features of the game are fixed. I know that animation requires lots of time. (may be wrong, it's just that... I've tried to animate and after 2 months the animation is still in need of work =( )

    See ya!
