A mesh with an Mercenary riding a horse that a Ranger Class deserves the most? Heck yes!

Yes, yes, spectacular.
Makes a lot of sense as the Ranger is an alt promotion for mercenary.

Depending on the animation ID, a glitch frame may be inserted if there is not a 38 frame interval after drawing the magic circle rune with C2E command.
You can deal with this by moving C2E forward.

This is great, 10/10. I think you forgot about the unarmed animation though.
Yeah good call i just added it.

Nice ! thatâs a cool addition
Outside of the throw feeling a little weightless (the spear usually isnât thrown from the tip, usually around center mass iirc) this is great! Really loving Ranger actually getting some love for once.
The throwing animation is actually a reference to the SNES one, just compare them.

aye, fair enough. I just think it looks rather funky.
Swords on Rangers? Naw, letâs take it up a notch with Lances! Rangers love lances.

Alright⌠Iâve been holding off on saying this for a while, but at this point, I feel like I have to.
Since about May 5th of this year, I have barely added any animations to the Github Repository. The reasons for this are pretty simple, but I just want to start by thanking the community for making at least 70ish animations in just three months. Thatâs an absolutely incredible speed, and the vast majority of these are really high quality.
I want to add these animations to the repo. But guys, I am just one person, and I have no help. I am also a very busy person, with two major writing projects on my plate, as well as several minor projects. I am unable to keep up with the volume of animations people are unloading on me all the time.
I need help.
I would need a lot less help if people formatted their animations properly. It seems no matter how much I link it, nobody reads the animation formatting post.
This is not optional. I am not, have not, and will not add animations to the Repository unless they align with the guidelines I have laid out. If you do not format your animations properly, I have to format them myself. Why do I have to format them? Because if I donât, they wonât show up properly in the awesome Github previews.
Guys. When you put, letâs say, two weeks of work into an animation, what I want is for you to take an extra 5 to 10 minutes to read the submission guidelines and make sure your animation fits within it. That extra 5 minutes may not seem like much to you, but this is my backlog of animations inside the WIP folder on the Github. Reformatting all of these will take 5-10 minutes per entry. Possibly more, depending on extenuating circumstances.
Look at this. Look at these folders. Theyâre all over the place. No consistent names. Iâve done my best to toss in credits whenever I download something someone posted, but every zip/7z file here is improperly formatted, all to varying degrees. A few of these will take minimal effort for me to fix, but they are by far the minority. Most of these were slapped together haphazardly.
In order for me to format all of these animations, I will need hours upon hours, if not several days, to make them work properly with the Repository.
Here are a few examples, just taken at random.
Examples of badly formatted animations
Leo_Link has submitted a bunch of cool animations, but they use the old Repoâs naming conventions. Not the new one.
Honestly, not a big deal. I can rename the top-level folders easily. The problem comes from whatâs inside the folders.
No CREDITS.txt file. The top-level folders are also not named properly. They should look like this, as per my formatting guidelines.
Inside the folders, they were exported from FEBuilders as âlanceâ instead of âLanceâ. This last thing isnât really a big deal, it just triggers my OCD, but I digress.
Donât think Iâm here to pick on Leo_Link. As-is, his submissions require only a few minor fixes. Itâs not a big deal. But, it is endemic of the fact that I feel as if nobody reads the submission guidelines.
Letâs look at someone else.
7743 is not a native English speaker. As such, I donât really expect him to precisely follow the guidelines. Even so⌠I donât even know what this is. Is it a spell animation? I barely know how spell animations work, so I donât think I made spell guidelines.
Whatever it is, it doesnât follow any particular logic.
Hereâs a Mounted Bard, Sonneteer - it has a Credits file, but the animation folder is absolutely horridly formatted. I will literally need to insert and export this from scratch to get it into a proper format.
Hereâs Stitchâs Bulky Mage. At first glance, it seems properly formatted.
But then you get into the folder, where thereâs no CREDITS.txt file.
The files werenât exported under the name âMagicâ so it wonât show up on the Github previews properly.
Folks. This may seem like little baby whining to you. However, I am just one guy. I donât have anyone helping me. I remember what it was like before the Repo. I remember having to hunt through walls of poorly formatted animations, trying to figure out why this animation download link was broken, or why that one was thrown in 50 random folders.
These days, 2021, we have a spiffy site with download buttons (that sometimes break, but Github is trying its best), gif previews, and a repository that doesnât fall apart every week because some random download broke and now nobody can access the latest SALVAGED animation because someoneâs Dropbox shit the bed.
All I ask is that you format your animations when you send them in. Every properly formatted animation Iâve seen, of which there have been about five in the past three months, have been added immediately to the repo. Unzip, change a name or two, bam. Done. Knabepicer is one of like three people who has properly submitted a few animations, and for that, I praise him.
I want to add these animations to the Repo, but I donât have the time. Can you guys help me? Resubmit your stuff according to the guidelines I outlined. Please donât tell me itâs not a big deal, or itâs not important, or say âWho cares?â because the fact the Repo is so popular means that you all must care in some way. I care, or Iâd have thrown my hands up and said âwhateverâ a long time ago. I canât help that Iâm 30 years old and life is making me busier than ever, but I can still try to make this repo awesome, with YOUR help.
Thanks.

P.S. If your animation is in this WIP folder, it needs reformatting according to the Repoâs guidelines. (There may be a couple exceptions at the top, but for the most part, all of them have this issue.)
Edit: I extracted the WIP folders. Try scrolling down that page to see just how bad the formatting looks on Github.
