Summary
WIP alpha: tactical stances, left-hand weapon grip, adjustable extended lean, blind-fire poses and high-port tactical sprint. Uses native sprint speed and stamina.
Description
Tactical Animations - 0.2.1 WIP alpha
Tactical character poses for Arma Reforger, authored on the official character skeleton. Seven animation clips retain the native lower-body locomotion. Left-side poses now turn the chest, neck and arms together so the stock fits the left shoulder pocket. Hand and finger contacts use the official M16 IK reference.
CONTROLS
Ctrl + W / S: adjust stance height; continue down into prone or up into crouch. Native stance-height quantization is retained.
Ctrl + A / D: select left / right weapon grip. The left hand becomes the trigger hand, with standing and crouched ADS alignment.
Hold Q / E + mouse wheel: adjust lean, up to an additional 30 degrees beyond native lean. The first 10 degrees add tilt; the next 20 degrees extend the upper body. Nearby obstacles limit the extra reach.
Hold Alt + A / D / W: left-side / right-side / overhead blind-fire pose. Release to return.
Double-tap Shift: high-port tactical sprint pose. Sprint speed and stamina consumption remain native. Firing, ADS and incompatible actions cancel the pose.
Key bindings are available in Settings > Controls.
WIP STATUS AND COMPATIBILITY
Tested in Workbench 1.8.0.13: 39 state checks, 31 native resource checks and 97 simulated-world checks passed. Another 35 native M16 shoulder / chest / finger contact checks passed with front, side and rear screenshots. These checks do not establish multiplayer or full combat compatibility.
Physical key conflicts, two-peer and join-in-progress replication, live ammunition / recoil / obstruction behavior, and the weapon / optics compatibility matrix still need validation. ADS tuning currently targets the official reference grip and vanilla M16.
This mod overrides player_main.agr, player_main.ast, player_main.asi and Locomotion.agf. Other character-animation mods overriding these resources may conflict.
Do not load the old experimental lean addon alongside this main addon.
Screenshots show the current Workbench test scene.
