[xdR] Improved Dual Pistol Animations for Coach

Description
DONT FORGET TO RATE UP AND FAVORITE! IT HELPS A LOT!

You can now say goodbye to Coach's Nipple Blaster Stance for dual wielding pistols, the xdR way. This replaces Coach's Dual Pistol animations with Francis' Dual Pistol animations instead while still retaining Coach's Calm Idle for the Akimbo stance.

I really liked Rise's Coach with Bill's Animations (used to be called Coach with Francis Animations), so it was a bit sad for me to let go of it when I decided to use xdReanims mods during that time.

I had this stored away for a while, but didn't publish it since I got pretty amused with custom survivor replacements and other custom animation replacement experiments.

This used to include Francis' solo pistol animations, but Rise released a better one recently that has working aimmatrices, so I suggest you use his mod instead for the Bill style solo pistol stance.

Like the previous xdReanims addons I made, this addon is fully compatible with custom suvivors that use Coach's animation set.

This addon changes the dual pistol animations for:

-Idle

-Crouching

-Crouch walking

-Running

-Walking

-Reloading

Requires xdR

This addon takes up xdReanims slot 003 for Coach

Coach Mod Used:

Coach Cop: https://gamebanana.com/mods/177207
(I made personal edits for my version)


Note:

I am also aware that Rise has an addon similar to this, we have worked independently and our methods are different in getting the end result. I got the animations straight from Francis, while he gets the animations from Bill (then scales them up to match Coach's proportions as he explained in his Coach with Bill's Pistol anims).

Plus I know he'll be replacing the calm idle with Bill's animations as well so there will be a visual difference between our addons. Just choose which version you guys prefer once he releases it I guess. He's a pro that knows what he's doing anyway.

Ok

@Shad3rEVO I had something like that in the works for all survivors to aim like Bill does with the rifle anims but its not properly working for some characters.

Even after I tweaked the animation itself for it to look properly with auto-shotguns. It already works for Bill, but it still refuses to work properly for Ellis and Coach so I needed to postpone it.

Was wondering if you could do a custom autoshotgun anim mod for coach using nicks rifle anims

Thank you for your answer, Captain Jameson!

@Restless Dreams, they're in different slots so they don't. Additionally I did not edit Coach's shooting sequences so they should work alongside each other. If the other addon is not appearing, its either the problem is on your end or with the other guy's addon

Hello, does your fix conflicts with this one?
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2993066507&searchtext=coach+pistol+xdr+fix
In "Addons" section your fix is present, but the other one is not. So i cannot see if they have conflicts. I have them both, so i just wondering about possible issues.

@Noodlepikmin probably not because Haruka uses Rochelle's animations and not Coach's animation set
Noodlepikmin 16 Jun, 2023 @ 7:31pm 
I don't know if this even works for Haruka Hirose, especially when she's holding a shotgun.

@T626 oh yeah I'm aware, that's why I left a note in the description.

"Note:

However, thanks for mentioning that again

@Captain Jameson and @hefty chonker Also, in case you two aren't aware, Rise also posted this https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2986504866&searchtext= . I don't know about you guys, but I'm so happy and looking forward to switching things up from now on between these two mods. Thank you so much again for making this, Captain Jameson!!!
