When We See Missing Animations?

<div class="IPBDescription">They look really good...</div> Sorry if this has been discussed and answered already - I searched and didn't find anything.

So, any set release for getting the missing animations into NS? I checked them out and they are <i>really</i> nice, imo. Hella better than having all the aliens mysteriously destroy objects by touching them <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->. 1.1? I assume it's probably going to have to be a client side thing, but just wondering if the devs have said anything about this. Thanks for any input

    I guess the man to ask is Squeal. He posted on a different thread that there is technical difficulties in getting quadrapeds to animate properly in the HL engine.

    As the world and his wife was screaming for 1.0 they left them out for the moment and it'll need a client patch to sort it.

    We can only hope it'll be in 1.1.

    Isn't it all the world's men and their dogs? Oh well of the sake of egalitarianism I'll use all the world's sapient entities and their spouses and/or quadropeds <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Where can one check out the animation? NS movie or something?

    Fire up HL Model viewer (http://www.swissquake.ch/chumbalum-soft/hlmv/) - they are kickin. So yeah, no official confrimations on this or anything? I was thinking 1.1, too, but there was no mention in the "1.1 in the works" update on the main page... Flayra..?

    Those death animations do look good, but the chambers don't have any death animations.
    Are the chambers still going to dissapear into smoke in 1.1 or are they going to have death animations also?

    About the structures death animations. The marine buildings i dunno about, I havn't heard anything about them being put though. Alien chambers now explode into green goo though. There are alos a few new alien animations afaik, the gorge jump being one. But i'm not sure on the others, though i assume there will be some new animations for the new alien abilities, stomp etc.

    May I also point out the lerk's missing death animation is probably the worst mistake in NS in terms of animation. Along side with the marine death animation for the fact that the ending is, how can I say.. a bit stiff.

    I've wasted many a clip on a dead lerk. Bah.
