[KANE699]

Here's to a new sprinting animation like that last picture of AP.

Here's a clip of AD. Again, his head is over his toes when in traffic, but when he breaks away, he leans back and lets loose.

BTW, how do you embed video?

EDIT: I also noticed in the 09 demo video that the runner's elbows are a bit too far from the player's body. When you see players sprint in the NFL, their arms are very tight to the body (from a frontal view). The players also have some kind of bounce to their step, which I have no idea how to recreate .

Seriously huge improvement. 09 animation simply looks dated, while the new one looks like a whole new beast.

I do agree though he is going quite slow, but perhaps there are simply factors or reasons in why he's going a bit slow (speed slider, no turbo held down, etc)

If it's an animation issue, might need to speed it up a bit.

I agree with this man.

That is Dustin Keller, it could actually just be a factor of his actual speed rating.

It is absolutely amazing how much better the new animation looks compared to the old one. They are not even in the same ballpark as one another. Hopefully they are re-working all the running animations. This is going to make the game look a MILLION times better in motion!

I bet when Ian looked at those side by side he was amazed at what a difference it makes.

Thank you Ian and Anim80r!!!!
