- Animations are made more generic, supermodel hierarchy is made clear
- Animation files are smaller MDL files, so should be faster / more efficient especially if further animations are added (eg converting simple to full models)
- Might make 2 versions; one with the original model file as well (so it can be used in blender to layer over another model for animations) and a second stripped of all erroneous data and leaving just the animations
- No reliance on the original model files being unchanged - eg by patches, other custom content or anything else
New Walks
The one main animation change in NWN:EE is the unhardcoding of iprp_walk.2da. This can add an item property (that could go on any item really) that stops running and applies a new walk animation, the game includes "Zombie" and "Injured". See 1.81.8193.15.
Example new 2da although testing it hasn't lead to the correct results with an elf NPC, oddly, needs further testing (0 however might be good as a default):
