               Yes, it would've been great if a "sit" node on an object determined where the PC's butt sat. I don't think it works that way though.

I wonder if there would be a way to create a sit animation that responds to the z-height of an invisible object.

What about using the "tail" node. In theory, if the placeable had a "tail" dummy node as well, the creature's buttocks should land there.

               I realy like the new sit animations, all these details make the game much more authentic:)

That's given me a cool idea (but probably outside the scope of this challenge given the support files required) - custom sit animations for rags' alternate phenotypes. I ended up making one of the key NPCs in my module a placeable 'cos I wasn't sure how to implement a custom sit animation for him, but actually it might fit well with the barbarian or demonblade animation set.

Do you mind if I make that pose up as one, Six? I'd probably slap it into pmo0 for now, to keep them all seperate, but there's no reason I can think of that it wouldn't be transferable into an alternate race/phenotype to have them divided up that way.
It's actually make more sense doing that than handling it by race anyways, but using the racial base models makes it easy for me to keep them not only seperate but easy to get to for copy/paste purposes.

               Sure, please do (it was a thinly veiled request anyway).

               Oh, that's a nice slouchy pose, very dramatic.

               I think I've got all the numbers worked out. I'm out of time now to get it done before work, but it'll only take me an hour or so to get it all transferred over from the sitdown part to sit.

I'll likely only throw in a bit of a foot tap for motion during the sit portion. I'll try to add a bit of chest motion into all of them after.
That part's just a bit more time consuming, since moving the torso_g node moves absolutely everything else, so the arms seem to have to be shifted counter to it. I might just try locking the hand positions in place and see if the rest shifts more naturally around them then.

... and done. Once I found the mass key copy button it went pretty quickly. I did end up going with the half-orc base model for putting it in, but it can be copy/pasted from there into one of the acp phenos if so desired.

Here's a screenie of the four sits:

The link in my first post on these animations should be pointed at the updated 7z file still, but here it is again just in case. It has the female one in an otherwise vanilla a_fa, plus the individual male sit animations in pme0, pmh0, and pmo0.
