Hi people,
Here's an animation test i'm working on at the moment, he's a low-poly character (2,293 polys) doing a run & jump.

James.

Thanks,

Thanks Kal, i've just finished doing some tweaking, i've slowed the jump down abit and reduced the head movement, not sure if i've over worked it or not? see what you think.
