I was playing around last night testing something and before I knew it it was past 2 am and I had an interesting looking animation for dragons to replace the standard "sit". It is not all that polished but I asked for permission to post it here to see what players think of it. It is not an official replacement for the regular sit animation and I don't think that one should be replaced because many pairs like to use it to sit side by side and the new one does not lend itself to that. But there may be some use for it as an alternate.
It certainly gave me a good idea of just what the limits are for the model's flexibility although there are a few wonky things going on with it. Mostly in the neck and back. And some movements are not really in sync with what you would expect to see with a reclining dragon breathing. But I would appreciate any comments on it. We have a good animator but it is something that I have not really developed a lot of skill at yet so this is more of a learning project for me.
Download the attachment and unzip the file in your game's /resources_override folder. Launch your dragon and sit down.
