Did this after lunch today as a quick exersise and had a blast doing it. Pushed it lower then the Ingame cycle and added a bit more bounce to the arms and torso. What do you guys think?

This is very good, very reminiscent of the animations found for this mech in Mechwarrior 4 and Mechassult.

Mmmmm... I really wish mechs in MWO had longer strides.

If only PGI accepts third-party contribution. I don't know if they do.

OP, that is really excellent. I'd love to see how you animate a running stride.

Also high-res plz.

I like it. Nice low stance. Very confident stride with a good bit of swagger. I'm not a fan of how quickly the upper torso rises and falls due to the lower knee bending at every step. You do want that feeling of weight but I feel like this animation takes the pressure a bit too far. 8/10 I like.

I am in Vancouver so they could always hire me!

Fair criticism and yeah if I spent more time or go back to it I would clean that up as I do agree its just a tad too much. But it was more of a test of what i could knock out in a few hours. When I do the next mech (Probably the assassin) I'll keep it in mind.

Looks nice. You should probably add some sway to the mech as well, since unless the mech can be perfectly balanced on one foot, as soon as the other foot leaves the ground the mech will start to lean in that direction. The animation seems to be missing that effect.
