Yes please! Looks definitely more realistic!

[Rebelyell]

yup

[Rico]

as explained in the video posted by no rules a while ago, our current 2hand stab animation is a stance for quick parrying. a realistic twohand stab animation would be a great improvement.

I have already made an anim like this one some times ago, for a try, but the problem is the visibility. It's ok for a polearm but is not easy to see it when it's a 2h.
Also, it's gonna look really weird on the katana

Thank heavens.

Was about time that rofl-superman-tarded animation got out of order, even though we know the limitations of the frames available.

Go for it!


ps: inb4 backpedal superman 2h heroes rage hard with this possibility.

Updated OP with smaller pictures and possible end/ near end frame.

[Logen]

Do et!

[Bjord]

Looks good.

Also, any video or demonstration as of yet?

I like the pose itself and it looks like you peeked into German school of fencing for the reference, which I always was a big fan of.

Never imagined you to actually be useful, Senni. ;)

So it's not possible to have a few different animations per attack direction in the same weapon class ? Something like in case of flamberge ?

the flamberge use the polearm animation.
If you modify this animation, all polarms would be affected.

If you want to keep the actual animation for katana and to use this one for the other 2h, you need to use a new animation slot and it's not possible if i remember (already mensionned for nudge stuf if i'm not wrong)

It would be awesome if it was possible, we can add the half hand fight animation or other stuff like that but i doubt that this is possible

[Krex]

Yes please.

[Azuma]

If we can have the choice..

[Sable Keech]

Looks cool. 

[LordRichrich]

Looks awesome! Considering it would likely reduce the range massively of 2h stabs, a slight damage increase may be warranted.
