Hi everyone!

I'm sorry for this long absence, but now I'm back - at least for some time!
Elven Swordsman animations are added!

[NDC]

Good to see you back. 

 
 

Thank you!

[Echo]

Great news! 

[Rider of Rohan]

Hey NDC, I've got a request, can you take a crack at doing the Dwarven units? The Guardians and Phalanxes in particular would be very helpful to me.

Thank you for a warm welcome, Echo!

Hi Rider, just added Guardian on the list!

[NDC]

Hi, do you plan to add new animations?

Yes, new sets are coming! Keep checking the thread!

 

Hi NDC,

I'd like to pursue your work. Could you explain how you do it?

Well, the trickiest part of my approach is about reading animation data from the newer version of  W3D Viewer - I do that with a little programme I wrote; sometimes in addition to it I make use of a thing called Cheat Engine.
Once you have the data recorded, you need to import them to 3ds Max.

Welcome back, are you planning to add animations of the Nazguls from BFME2?

[Miraak5]

yeah because black ridder/nazgul anims are needed for mounth of sauron mounted

[SamGamgee]

Could you add to your to-do list Gloin and Dain please?

 

Thank you very much for your work

Thank you very much for your work

Gloin and Dain skeletons work directly in Bfme-I. You can try!

Oh man, didn't know that. Thank you!

For those who are interested . List of BFME2 animations that work in BFME1 without conversion

Thank you! You mean, horseback or on-foot?
Before starting the conversion project, I had done Nazgul on-foot animations separately - I cannot put them here as those are technically not converted, but reproduced animations.
As for the animation set for a mounted Nazgul, it's on the list now!

[Rider of Rohan]

Hey man, think you can convert the Dwarven Battlewagons (unless they are already importable)?

[NDC]

Hey man, think you can convert the Dwarven Battlewagons (unless they are already importable)?

Hi Rider! They're already compatible, but, since you mentioned dwarven machinery, their siege rams are bfme2-animated - I'll upload a converted version soon.

Just to update everyone on the progress - I'm working on the nazgul mounted (black rider) animation set with a few custom animations. I have also extracted the animations for half-trolls (including those for their banner carriers), and will convert them to the bfme1-friendly format very soon.

To everyone: please let me know if I've missed something from your requests. I haven't uploaded much recently as I'm working on two original animation sets - I'll show them off in the Showcase thread soon.

Thank you very much for your patience, and stay tuned in for further updates!

Awesome, looking forward to it!

[Felipe Roll-st]

glorfindel would be really appreciated    

[Echo]

RotWK's Morgomir has a similar animation set, you might want to try that

[Felipe Roll-st]

do they work in BFME 1?? I have a glorfindel model but uses aragorn anims so I want him to look more "elvish"
