Sitting / Meditating

... and to think I would never suggest anything.

Anyway, my idea is another sit or meditation stance (eg /emsit2). A stance that lets your character sit on the floor using his knees. It's been done before for JKA in another stance mod, I fail to remember the name, and I have seen the stance in KOTOR, and the movies, I think? An example would be something like this:

I've actually wanted something like this for a while. I support this.

I agree, I had RolePlay'd with this stance before and it was a great stance to use. So it would be nice to see it being used here.

I agree about this, because I would absolutely love to be able to meditation in this stance!
I have this stance for my JA+ use, actually, and made a small Xfire video with it.
The stance for Jedi Academy can be located here: Click

Link is CLOSE to my imagination, but with the hands together like that, it's err.. I don't know xD But you get the idea, and thanks for the support.

Well this reminds me, we had an animation pack in the works which included an animation quite similiar to this along with various other decent ones, however, with Cyril gone it's been discontinued. Also I'm not sure whether it's right to use it or not, hell if we could, we could easily implement and use it today. Comes down to the Council, I believe, because to an extent it would be hypocritical to use it, unless we get permission...

To use Cyrils work, yes.

To have someone new start the project again, not so much - so if anyone can do this kind of work.

Stand up and be recognised.

The stances from Clone Wars Animation and Effects Mod (5.0) is quite nice, though you would need the makers approval if you intend to rip out a few animations. I'd link but.. ((in work right now..))

I wasn't around for the old pack so forgive me if I've missunderstood.

Yeh Qui-Gon did it before getting slotted by Darth Maul, would be really good for battle-meditation as you'd theoretically be able to get up from it quickly. (Depending on which way your character's legs hinge.)

Would indeed be nice to see in the mod.

Because it requires new animations to be crafted. As was stated in the previous topic about this specific emote. Which, no one has had the inclination to learn how to do.
Plus, it would be more time efficient to wait until a later version to perform multiple new emotion animations in one block - as there has been some interest in other new emotes as well. Compiling, piece by piece, would most likely be more of a hassle for folks who have to deal with implementing them, such as Fabien.

If it can be done then I am all for it, but I have to agree with Zeak as far as what he said regarding Cyril. Still, like Seb said if we could get someone else to do that it would be great. Was really looking forward to all of those new animations and such. Though I also agree with Alkur about adding multiple new animations at once, but I guess that depends on who is free to do it. Anyway, I support it.
