Any chance for Project Injury Reaction compatibility ?

Nope, only movement animations here. For cutscenes animations check out the A2C mod.
Does this have the arma 2 boxing animation? which for some reason never got included in arma 3

Thanks! Fortunately I've been using steamcmd to download older DayZ builds for animations, so I am currently not in need of any .pbos, but really, thank you for offering!

Sorry for all the questions, I know it's been a while since you used ArmA Tools. Do you remember if the weapon bones were messed up when you started? Specifically the "Launcher" & "Weapon" bones. When importing DayZ animations into Arma 3, the "Weapon" bone follows the hand even with empty hand animations, rendering most DayZ animations unusable. Did you encounter this with weapons and launchers on the back/"Holstered"? Maybe I missed something when you "converted them to a new skeleton." All other parts of the animations seem fine, except for the weapon/launcher bones, which sorta just renders them all unusable. Hopefully you can provide some insight

Thanks a million!,

@The Chinger

That is really nice! Really looking forward to your project. I still got the .62 version archived, so if you need any pbos - write me.

Happy New Year!!! :lhflames::lhflames::lhflames:

Hello again! I just want to say that your mod & information has been a great help in learning about this kind of stuff. I actually just managed to get a few Legacy DayZ Animations onto the workshop.

Thanks again for your insight!

Happy New Year

@The Chinger hey hey hey. Sorry, that was really a long time since I last touched the Arma tools, so I don't really remember all the details, but the animations indeed were broken. I got their de-obfuscated variant from the public Bohemia Interactive - Licensed Data Packages [www.bohemia.net] and then used some tool in Object Builder or Mikero toolset to convert them to new skeleton here [github.com]

Hello, Maxi! I just had a question -

I understand that you posted the source code on github, but I am very curious to ask -

Since the ArmA 3 Skeleton has more bones than ArmA 2, how did you get them to display properly on the ArmA 3 Models? Did you have to go and manually reanimate certain pieces? I am curious because I am looking at porting some ArmA 2 Animations to Legacy (DX9) DayZ, Just for fun, and as a bit of a learning curve for me. Thank you!

@soft femboy (nice username)

The second track is God's Gonna Cut You Down by Johnny Cash, and the first one gave me a real hard time trying to remember what it was. I absolutely love LORN, so I started digging in that direction and the closest resembling sound to this: "LORN - The Way Will Follow You" with heavily modified speed and pitch (by my hand, probably) .

what's the song used in the trailer?
maximilionus  [author] 26 Jul, 2024 @ 10:29am 
@小肥龙 changing the load order of A2ATA3 to a higher priority may be a solution.
Asuka 25 Jul, 2024 @ 10:56pm 
PIR disables this mod, any solutions?
maximilionus  [author] 21 Jul, 2024 @ 7:19pm 
@HKG3KA1 No, unfortunately this is not possible. All unit animations are fetching directly from the configuration file, which cannot be overwritten in-game.
HKG3KA1 21 Jul, 2024 @ 12:59pm 
Hi,Is it possible to give a2 animation via unit Init in the editor,keeping the a3 animation for any other unit?
maximilionus  [author] 20 Oct, 2023 @ 7:57am 
@Corporal Ray Person sadly, it is only possible to be done by manually editing the animations classes and re-building this modification from source [github.com]. The code base is very outdated spaghetti of inheritance, hard-coded especially to work with Arma 2 animations, so I believe it will be very painful to modify it to your needs.
Corporal Ray Person 20 Oct, 2023 @ 5:12am 
Hey Max, I was wondering if there was any way to disable the A2 "Run" animation. I want to keep the sprint and walk animations but every time I've attempted it's always bugged it out. No problem is that's impossible to do
SIDEKILLER™ 7 Sep, 2022 @ 9:52pm 
if you are using PIR mod it will break this mod
ⱤØØ₮฿ɆɆⱤ 20 Aug, 2022 @ 3:51pm 
Yeah it still doesn't work, i have 0 animation mods that effect movement except an event handler
maximilionus  [author] 15 Aug, 2022 @ 9:55am 
@David but it is... Default Arma 3 animations are only used for "Tactical movement" mode. Try pressing C x2
maximilionus  [author] 11 Jul, 2022 @ 3:15pm 
Sorry for all not replied comments, I'm currently not actively working on Arma games modding, many things changed.

@.basloon C are you using any other animation mods with this one? Because A2ATA3 is 90% incompatible with any other animation (altering, tweaking) mods. Played with this mod about a month ago - everything was fine.
ⱤØØ₮฿ɆɆⱤ 11 Jul, 2022 @ 1:14pm 
Mod still does not work
Rangerskull 17 Aug, 2021 @ 2:12am 
The mod works. Maybe there is conflict with other mods. Mine conflicted with GCE mods. Some amin mod inheritance seems to break this mod.
Fluffy GS G5 25 Jun, 2021 @ 4:55pm 
nevermind, mod is still working. I figured out the mod "AEGIS" breaks a lot of everything. Also this mod. So maybe for other guys has the same problem and you use AEGIS: this is the problem
Fluffy GS G5 25 Jun, 2021 @ 4:19pm 
Is the creator of this mod still active?
Fluffy GS G5 16 Jun, 2021 @ 2:40pm 
yes don't work anymore, realy sad :steamsad::steamsad:
ⱤØØ₮฿ɆɆⱤ 17 May, 2021 @ 5:09pm 
Stopped working, used to have 0 issues but not it just doesn't work at all
Shadow 8 Apr, 2021 @ 7:32am 
If you go to the weapon down option while jogging and start sprinting for some reason a medical animation plays and you get locked in place. It could be just me, but it seems to have an issue with ACE medical.
Blindside 5 Apr, 2021 @ 8:55pm 
It bothers me that the combat walk animation in this isn't the same as the actual combat walk animation from ArmA 2. The character is oddly propped up straight and bobbing around alot while walking.
Jimiee 5 Apr, 2021 @ 8:27am 
Love this, arma2 for the world. Screw arma 3 animations :D

Thanks Maximili for mod
MycroftCanadaNS 3 Apr, 2021 @ 2:30pm 
Where should this mod be placed in the mod load order?
J-Money 21 Mar, 2021 @ 7:44pm 
Don't think this works anymore, tried it but wasnt active
TEKILLA 13 Mar, 2021 @ 1:18pm 
Add please death animation's from arma 2.
I will be very grateful.)
Rocky Bukkake 6 Mar, 2021 @ 12:58am 
I think this mod suddenly stopped working?
Tempten101 16 Feb, 2021 @ 2:24pm 
The slow walk pace (with rifle) seems oddly different to A2. Movement speed seems a lot faster too.

Other than that, the animations work pretty good.
AlphaGarg 24 Jan, 2021 @ 10:57am 
Thank you! Do you have a reference or guide you used for figuring out the naming convention of these files, or did you "yolo" it?
maximilionus  [author] 24 Jan, 2021 @ 2:37am 
@AlphaGarg
1. Source code of this modification is available on github [github.com] for everyone.
2. Arma 1 animations will probably be very outdated, so porting them will be quite hard but possible.
3. It's okay to use this modification as base for your work if you credit the original author :)
AlphaGarg 22 Jan, 2021 @ 2:25pm 
Good evening, sir. I have three questions to ask:
1. How did you make this mod? I'm interesting in trying my hand at a version that replaces all non-half-stance animations, effectively removing Combat Pace from the game.
2. Would it be possible to do something like this, but with Arma 1 animations? Or are the skeletons too different?
3. Depending on the answer to 1, would you be okay with me uploading a modified version of this mod, with full credit, on the workshop?

i thought i was the only one who liked Arma 2's Jogging movement
Rattler 18 Nov, 2020 @ 2:01am 
@MAXIMILI Ahh I see, this is no issue though. Still a great mod nonetheless!
maximilionus  [author] 18 Nov, 2020 @ 1:48am 
@Stock Rattler thanks for the report, but this issue was detected long ago [github.com]. There's no way to fix it currently :(
Rattler 17 Nov, 2020 @ 3:53pm 
There's a Bug when I use the NIArms Pistols, where the other hand is still holding the pistol when running, I don't know if you can fix it but I wanted to point it out. Still a great mod though! I really love the older animations over the new animations.
Rangerskull 17 Nov, 2020 @ 9:24am 
can we have the default bis walking with the weapon up?
Imortal 14 Oct, 2020 @ 9:10am 
The mod is really amazing, but the slow walk aiming with the gun is very strange, it seems that the soldier has a straight spine. If you can fix this the mod will be perfect.

I dont think there are any restrictions to porting content from Arma 2?
maximilionus  [author] 12 Oct, 2020 @ 1:30pm 
@pvttunt everything is possible. I'm just not sure if it's allowed to port these animations to Arma 3 or not.
maximilionus  [author] 12 Oct, 2020 @ 1:27pm 
@Sergeant Dumbass this is fully client-side mod that should be allowed to use by server if you want to play with it in multiplayer. Mod is also working fine with uniform and most of the weapon mods, however there may be some problems with weapon animation if it has custom handling animations ( NIArms for example) .
Sergeant Dumbass 12 Oct, 2020 @ 3:25am 
is this a client or server side mod? and will it work with any other uniform / weapons?
*******ive father 23 Sep, 2020 @ 7:46am 
is it possible for you to port EVERY single animation? like first aid and such?
