I created this replacement for the stretched forehand

Nice job, it seems more realistic

Okay nice so how do we get it?

I'll upload after getting the backhand animation to work

So, I created the backhand stretch shot. As it is a backhand, the player starts at an orientation of like 30 degrees to the back. But when I try the animation in the game, at certain situations, the player turns 80-90 degrees to the back. Is it possible to clip the rotation of this animation. The same happens to the default backhand stretch animation as well.

I think the range of rotation for backhand stretch shots should be clipped compared to forehand as they all start from like 15-30 degrees backward orientation.

Send me a Bug Report when you think there's a wrong orientation with the base anim. (HowTo => topic5-31732.php )

I sent you a bunch of reports. The main issue is that the entire animation is rotated wrt the direction the player is running. This is wrong in case of backhand as the player must be facing sideways at the start of the animation. It would be great if the rotation is reduced in the back side and there is zero rotation on the front side.

I got your Bug Reports, but they desync : I support only replays done with the XKT & Nard Anims.

Anyway, this is likely a limitation of the system I made : the animation orientation matches a hit on the side, but there's no transition, only a root rotation.

[anrox335]

Can you remove the root rotation for just the backhand? The orientation becomes all over the place.

The dafault animation is just fine without the player having weird orientation.

Sorry, I forgot all the details, I'm not digging into that now...

[anrox335]

It's not that big of an issue, and certainly not worth putting a large amount of effort tbf. Maybe you can hire a jobless youth like me for documentation... just joking.
