custom infantry using relic animations?

Hi, I'm wondering if you could enlighten me and some others on how one of your devs, Hartkeks , got custom infantry models ingame using relic animations?

I assume it's like the program "Endorphin" (for geeks, like me or game developers and programmers) You make the model, then apply the animation to it. *OR* they take the relic models and totally modify them to look like russians. Either way, it works.

Animations are made using the skeleton of the model.
Not the model itself, nor the skins themselves. That'S why
it works so well, changing the skins has nothing to do with
the animations ;)
You know, there are many people in the country today who, through no fault of their own, are sane. Some of them were born sane. Some of them became sane later in their lives. It is up to people like you and me who are out of our tiny little minds to try and help these people overcome their sanity

you're not understanding, i'm not talking about skins at all. i'm talking about completely new models. I know they didn't do it for the mod but harteks got a custom soldier model ingame.

"I know they didn't do it for the mod" now I do believe they made several new tank models

We have got custom infantry models ingame. Infact, every unit has custom models to some extent.

Re: custom infantry using relic animations?

From what I understand, custom infantry isn't a technique which you can learn from a simple 'how-to' post. It is a complex process which takes time and tutoring to develop any real ability. You would be best speaking to Hartkeks himself, but only if he has the time on his hands, and you have the past experience and will to learn something fairly difficult.
