Nice to learn how horses or maybe most 4 legged animals walk or run. Looks like in Phalanx video the horse walk or run is like a human walking/running or stepping. One foot on the rear is balanced by the opposite side foot on the front and vise versa. Kind of natural feeling to balance their pacing.
Nice animations and videos, hope to have this next Alpha. Would there be toggle to have a walk or run movement? I hope so because IMO pacing has something to do with unit mobilization.
i saw other video wich say's front leg's are the same movement as a human, but the back legs are like an ostrich

Right back leg

btw @wowgetoffyourcellphone you were talking about made new uv layout and some other things made apart (saddle? straps?) if you have in mind new prop points tell me so i'll add them we already have this props: Crest, Front Armor, Saddle, Rider, and i added the shield point in the left leg

@Phalanx thanks for sharing and don't worry i don't want to deliver a weird horse animations, i'm on the same side as you i know nothing about horses and yet after looking closer this week i had to add 4 more bones to the legs to make the walk look of a horse, the only one that doesn't fit yet to the 4 new bones is the galop animation the patterns are very helpfull so i will use that one i was using the same refence images but they were pictures only.

Testing adding some bones in every leg will keep trying until get it (Not 100% finished yet) also added the bone tail but din't seem to change something i will try removing the helper

Also rename every bone with the name of the target mesh for example: Hammer guy > HG_<Bone name> or whatever you like to name it, but don't use Finger_R only or may break other skeleton using the same bone name so this way you avoid breaking other rigged skeleton you are going to use.

I don't know if you've done this yet but the horses themselves should have their own variant files. Yea or Nay?
art/variants/quadraped
i'll add them when everything is verified and timers are correct.
added reverse spear variant and crossbow variant

@wowgetoffyourcellphone wouldn't it be weird though to have both like one looking better than the other ?
They would need maybe more round edges and some polishing
-
For that may need something like a Crowd control system wich manages how the unit will react to the lasso, otherwise we will be having cowboys like nomads catching the wind if you mean the lasso showed in some thread back when the rider pulled the neck of the infantry and also will need attack motion

Según entiendo la visión del caballo no es may aguda, ellos solo ven sombras, no es un a visión binocular.
Eso lo acomodé y mantuve la misma animación que usan los caballos actualmente.

if they are going to be committed then i will be proceding to clean and adjust i had some things to do before uploading full but i was waiting for approval and opinions and also i will try a canter animation for chariot horses.

Add scaffolding's to upgrading turrets/structures and for hybrid units maybe a switch animation for unit's like the chinese archer/swordsman in ROTE ; for example: if the unit is switching from sword to bow , put the sword on the sheath and grab the bow (if its in the back) and add the same upgrade time as the animation

in any case i still have the blender files for everything so it can be checked, modified, used, etc.

4. Gastrapetes/crossbows have very big weapons. Shouldn’t it be like the loaded arrow be shown.
I didn't understand, what is exactly needed in the gastraphetes?

More info about it:
Please note, ALL animation information gets recorded in the bones and we can start the simulation on any pose (so it can also have manual driven animation like puting the hands in the throat or where it is supposed to be hit etc..) plus it can be tweaked after converted to frames. This will save me TONS of time of manual animation for deaths variations.
I had to spend a lot of time on this but it's definitely worth it. I got really frustrated after attempting numerous cavalry horse animations that weren't achieving the quality I was looking for, but I think we can get really nice results with this. So only attack animations are left for cavalry now!

I hope you got a laugh watching de video

this is what i found and at i see what enrique's had planned for the spearman cavalry but also i notice he used the horse mesh as he uploaded to the public folder, the same size so the one i edited is bigger the size will be a problema in the future?

===[COMMITTED]=== Horse Update
in Completed Art Tasks
Posted
Fixed the blocky butt i only had to remove 2 bone influences
now for the other think i will need maybe some drawed line to see what i need to do. I had to remade the galop animation so as you can see the chest think popped up again.
