Hehe, thats great. I just opened up on some crop rats to test it, and everything ran smooth. Nice work to whoever made that!

I also tested it out, and it's a pretty nice difference. For anyone that's interested in trying it, just unzip the files into your Overide directory. Nothing else needs to be done.

I wish more nifty things like this were made that we as end users could add on to expand our game depth without having to have changes made to Avlis code/haks. Thanks for posting it.

i'm assuming that by installing it in your own override folder, only you are seeing the different animations, correct? Not that it matters, but I was just curious how that aspect of the game engine works...

Overrides the .mdl file which has all the pertinent animation sets in it. Keeps the old animations, just adds in which go off randomly.

Yeah you see your character doing cool moves. Plus you see anyone else who has it installed using the moves.

Whats really funny is that if you go into the Mikona Crypt and meet a Shadow, its opens up a can of NoCanDo KungFu on your sweetcheeks as well.
Obviously it must have been a monk in its former life

It would rock to see my monk draw open a stylish can of whoop-ass, but because of this I won't do it. I would fall from my chair every time my fat dwarf would do the same in a bar-fight.

Too bad you can't have the animations only for monks.

I want to see a barfight with these animations installed, all the waitresses doing flying kicks in the air, lol... someone do it and take a screenshot

Yeah! They are greeeaaaatttt ! Shame you can't have regular animations for non-monks and special monk-moves for monks.

And if you mess with the tint on your monitor to make everything kind of green, you get AvliMatrix!!!

And when a DM logs in, pauses the game and then loses connection, its just like bullet-time! Yarr!

LOL!!!!

Now if we can just get the slowmo deaths like in JK2...

Fuzz · Post by **Fuzz** » Fri Sep 05, 2003 8:23 pm

Get this hak.

It's like Shaolin Soccer, even the lowliest elven commoner knows kung fu when a lizardman takes a swing at them!

Allensbane · Post by **Allensbane** » Sat Sep 06, 2003 12:25 pm

I definately agree, get this hak. It also affects dual-wielding animations... you suddenly turn into a jumping, twirling, ninja-like engine of death! A bit ridiculous in my case, considering Aeryn uses two massive bastard swords, but damned if it doesn't look good.

*impatiently waiting for JK3*[/hijack]

Cool hak. What it does need is some animations for double sided weaps. Some darth maul style fighting

Does it also affect two-handed weapons?

Ryu Omura · Post by **Ryu Omura** » Sat Sep 06, 2003 7:26 pm

I think it affects two weapon mode

JA is a fun game... make sure you beat the light side ending before the dark side one...

Wahhhhh! Must have HAK! Thanx Helarne ...

But currently at work right now ... have to wait till I get home ... argh

Aradan Kir · Post by **Aradan Kir** » Sun Sep 07, 2003 8:39 am

ok this HAK is wierd - when I now cast spells or drink potions, I prepare for some kung-fu in-between!!

Are there haks for other additional fighting animations, with weapons?

Kaenon · Post by **Kaenon** » Sun Sep 07, 2003 8:51 am

i can remember when monk was first introduced in bg2, the monotonous invisible sword punch....... the monk has com along way.

ShadowBlazer74 · Post by **ShadowBlazer74** » Mon Sep 08, 2003 4:54 am

It does affect two wep animations,...and when mages cast spells as well.BTW if you want your mage to cast normal just have him hold a wep in his hand when casting.

Starslayer_D · Post by **Starslayer_D** » Mon Sep 08, 2003 11:52 am

Two weapon fighting and monks look both very cool.. andpolearms and spears do better, too.

Too bad aboiut potions... a round of "cheers" looked like the opening sequence to a kung-fu-flick
