Proper shield position

[ealabor]

Just a look at the shields positioning conformed to the new animation for the mod.

very nice but will shields use a central grip that you hold with one hand or will they all be strapped to your arm

[Merlkir]

Yeah, you did it. Nice. I second the question, will all shields share this animation?

[tFighterPilot]

It's rather misleading, since there is no passive blocking.

[Aethelred]

As above. Although it looks more realistic, it does make it even more ridiculous that the shield counts for nothing unless you're actively blocking with it; there's only a small difference between the totally defenseless position and impenetrable wall position.

will be tough to hit those guys if you port this mod to WB because of the passive shield defense bounus.

Pretty much all the shield meshes have been redone now.

Whats previewed in first post should give an idea of the improvement thereupon.

but is it possible to have shields in game that have the standard animation and shields that have a new one?

[Aethelred]

I can't see how it would be possible. The animation set is determined by the weapon rather than the shield. I don't think there's a workaround, but maybe someone will surprise me.

Pure win, I'm as excited about 286 coming out as I was about EB1 and TATW.
