When creating a new account, there is a particle burst that plays when you switch classes. Nulgath hand animated the first one in flash. Now he is using Unity's particle system to recreate it and... it looks awesome!
Ghost began creating the base animations for pet Moglins. Both the normal animations... and the Battle Pet animations :D Hit read more below to see more GIFs.
So... how do Moglins attack? The theme was "devastatingly cuddly".
Below is a walk cycle... the ear movement makes my soul warm.
The idle animation is subtle, until the Moglin smiles and looks around. Makes you wonder if the moglin is spotting an old friend... or spying ice cream in the distance.
the final attack is the Moglin version of "Kamehameha!!!!!!!"... but with poof clouds.
Pets are now stored in the game the exact same as Monsters & NPCs. Which means this Moglin can be a pet, an NPC, or a Monster.
Ghost made room in the texture atlas (the file containing the art) so that we can use the rig for most of our existing moglins. Adding custom animations is easy thanks to a slick animation override controller.
