[xdR] Improved Pump Shotgun Animations for Bill

Description
DONT FORGET TO RATE UP AND FAVORITE! IT HELPS A LOT!

Bill and other characters using Bill's animation set will now hold pump shotguns the same way Bill holds a Hunting Rifle.

I saw Rise's shotgun addons, namely "Intro pumpshotgun animations" for Coach and Francis, so I figured the other characters should have the same animations cuz honestly I think it looks so much better than the default hip fire version. Deniss_ made a good attempt at trying to apply the same animations of Francis and Coach to the other survivors, however their proportions change because the animations are from Francis and Coach, so they all get a big boost in height.

The nice perks about this addon are that the pump animation still plays while having the same standing and walking stance AND this addon respects Bill's original proportions so he wouldnt end up getting taller like Francis and Coach.

Just like Rise's mod, this addon changes the pump shotgun animations for:

-Idle

-Crouching

-Crouch walking

-Running

-Walking

Requires xdR

Oh I almost forgot to mention that it takes up xdReanims slot 006 for Bill

@SwallowATK, you know what- I'll consider that. I'll try to upload the working ones around Friday, not unless you guys are fine bearing with minor problems with the walking animation for Coach and Ellis

That's a shame - you ever considered releasing the ones that worked?
Captain Jameson  [author] Apr 27 @ 7:09am 
@SwallowATK oh hey its been a while since I worked on these mods. They partially worked but I stopped working on it since I felt burnt out from modding. There's some issues with a few animations, specifically the walking one for Ellis and Coach

Did you ever get around to the autoshotgun version?
Captain Jameson  [author] Jul 12, 2024 @ 12:02am 
@Military Grade Maggot no worries, I also wanted to do that anyway lol.

I made one already but I just haven't released it yet since I was originally planning to release it as a pack with the other survivors, but the problem is it doesnt work properly for Coach, and Ellis.

Perhaps I could just release the one for Bill's animation set in the meantime

I apologize for asking, but could you make a version for auto shotguns, in the future? Thanks.
Captain Jameson  [author] Jun 9, 2023 @ 2:19am 
@SHOBEx93 I could consider to do that sometime, but take my word for it that it is a LOT to digest, you'll probably run into a lot of compile errors just as I did if you're gonna start out with xdR animation swaps.

If you'd like to, you could decompile my addon and try to reverse engineer it first. Thats how I started out.

Would you consider making a tutorial video on how you swap the animations?
I'd like to learn to attempt myself, thanks.
