Need community help!!! Player/Team animations

[Benicio10]

I hope the focus is on player gameplay animations instead of celebrations. i feel like the priority here is with off-the-field stuff. please get the signature animations down on the field.

player-specific QB drop back and throwing animations
player-specific RB running, cutting, carrying animations
player-specific WR route running, jumping, catching animations

[Da Rebirth]

SPECIFIC ANIMATION: Brothers of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity "Throwing up the Hooks" (The "Steve McNair Thing")
Details: See Pic Below, list of Brothers currently in the NFL can be supplied if needed.
Game / Time Last Seen: After offensive AND defensive (TD's, INT's, Sacks, Vicious Hits) big plays are made during games...

great thread!



animation: NUMEROUS pre-play/post-play defense/offense such as:

LB's pointing to various RB/WR assingments (visualize a "who's got him?!!")
FS/SS creeping up to line for blitz (or faking a blitz)
OL men pointing to their blocking assingmments
guys getting up & signaling for a Timeout



(no these are not necc. player specific but adding them would add to the realism of the game along with the player specifics)

SPECIFIC ANIMATION: Rams PR Dante Hall "X" Celebration
Details: When Dante makes a big play, he makes 2 fists and crosses his wrists in front of him around chin level with his palms down in the form of an "X". Sometimes done with ball still in hand. See below.
Game / Time Last Seen: Everytime he makes a play.

SPECIFIC ANIMATION: Jeff Garcia distinctive dropback and throw
Details: Jeff Garcia has horrid footwork. He almost looks like he's falling backwards and barely gets ahold of himself at the end of the drop. On his hitch step, he holds the ball out behind him as he bounces forward, and bring it back in with a small arching motion. When he throws, he's similar to Marino with a wider release, looking more like he's "flinging" the ball than throwing it.
Game / Time Last Seen: every pass play. I'll post an video when I get home.

Which ones do you want? Any specific examples?

I guess my point is - is there a catch animation that I could play that would make you say "Wow that is a Chad Johnson catch" or something to that effect? Or a juke where you say "Damn they have Tomlinson's specific juke!"

Any examples I can look for specifically? Even just a game or play you remember seeing this in so I don't have to start combing game film?

Animation: Ben Roethlisberger QB drop back and throwing
Details: I'm not an evaluator, so I'll let this video show:

The second clip shows it frozen. His on-the-run throws are great, he's upright and lobs it right in there.

I'm currently looking for a Hines Ward celebration picture, or a catch picture. He mimicks the TO and Chad celebrations all the time, BTW. Here's a video of that:

One thing that is Hines-only is his smile. If you've ever watched a Steelers game, you'll notice that every catch Hines has a huge grin on his face. I'm sure there's no way to show that in the game, but it's as signature as you get with the Steelers.
