"I am not going to... ah, screw it, let's go"

When you first attack, you usually swing your weapon right-to-left, then the weapon resets to idle animation. On the second attack, it teleports off-screen, and you swing it left-to-right, after which it resets back to idle. The third attack is either the same as first or similar.

So if the idle animation does not show the weapon on-screen, you harmonically swing it right-to-left then left-to-right, without weird resets to the idle frames. It is possible to create "item/helping hand" animations for melee weapons too, which could be sharpening the machete or flipping your knife around instead.

Also, spinning the frying pan, I totally dig that.

When I make melee animations, you will not see the weapon in idle. Only when you deploy and attack will you see it.

I like my anims to be smooth. If u making these, can u add those look up and down animations? an if u ARE making a pan animation, maybe make it spin the pan as the draw animation, it'd look sick before the strike. But of course, these aint easy to make, would've made my own if I could

I have an idea for when I make my own melee weapon animations, but nobody will like it.

Guaranteed.

paysus' animations are just wack. The only mod from him/her that I use is the frying pan reanim, only cuz there's no other anim mod for the pan, and the default one sucks balls. I hope somebody makes a better one soon :|
