[SA] Use Arma 3's stances for the standalone || [MOD] use smk animations for the mod

[purplish 70]

I am not completely sure whether or not the SA new skeleton includes these stances, by the looks of it, they don't. I can not even stress how useful this is in PVP and when seeking cover. Arma 3's stances can also help PvE because the Stances could cause Zeds to not be able to see you as easy. Arma 3,s stances also make it easier to clear buildings, hide better and gives a much more fluid motion.

For the mod, the smk animations would be an amazing addition. SMK allows different stances possible and has features like blind fire.

imo the arma 3 gun holding animations are way too military for dayZ. dayZ isnt about people that have trained in the armed forces and know exactly how to handle a gun, it's about people trying to survive. however i'm all for more fluid and realistic animations.

I was trying to focus more on the actual stances than the gun handling ( could care less about it) and example of the stances would be going from standing straight up to hunching

You don't have to how a copy of the same video twice, man.

Anyway >.>

I'm not personally a fan of the SMK mod. I like the version that was incorporated into A3 just fine. Blind fire and all would make sense for untrained, wild survivors, but would be a giant waste of ammo. I'm not saying that's not a reason to include it, but that's definitely a reason not to use it.

I think what the SA should use is the A3 "Degrees of freedom" (stand, half-crouch, crouch, low-crouch, sit, prone) but not the other poses SMK allows.

The video,That was an accident ment to post an arma 3 video, I agree with the blind fire, what I really want is the wall leaning

I like the idea of as much freedom as possible imo.

Stances from straight up to hunching in arma 3 are very good, I hope they will implement it in Standalone.

The only movement I miss a lot is leaning without weapon and leaning while in prone position.

Would be cool if they had the "fumbling posture" too. I can't remember how many times I 've seen mags flying, heads banging/knees bashing with weapons/doors/each other, while trying something elaborate. Personal favourite: guy gets hooked from helmet strap while clearing room, major bruise!
