Test Vid:


This is pre-textured, pre-evnironment, pre-post.

Not bad! The landing looked great, but something seemed off about the takeoff

I see it; it's the 'slowness' of his lift-off... THanks for pointing it out, Cori. Hopefully I can resovle the problem. Thanks for feedback, too.

Pretty neat davdud!

I think the slowness is part of what seems off. I like how you're trying to put in antic(ipation) in the movement. One thing you could try doing is to point the front end down, rather than have the front end up. This I think would be a better antic for a forward jump.

You can try seeing it in how your body prepares for a forward jump. When you crouch bracing to go forward, you'd lean to shift your weight forwards so that you'll be 'balanced' when you leap forward.

I hope that made sense ^^

I know, I haven't been particularly active and whatnot, but I gotta ask:

What happened to this challenge?

Either everyone left to get hard to work or everyone forgot. I kinda stopped working, so I'll have to get back on a throw something together in the last 4 days.

Darn, such an ambitious one for us all. I'll try to get mine finished and up after a little while.
