I've worked with it a little, but the the more complex functionality eludes me. I managed to make a website with it, but I question that decision... our Flash animator Liquid Stripes might be more familiar with it.

I've always wished, when you at a point re-model Sion, instead of the boring thing with the axe glowing red and green skulls you could do something like, his base model he got an axe on his back and another in his hands, when you toggle enrage on he looks more angry and hold that axe in 1 hand and when you use cannibalizme he pulls out the other axe (50% more attack speed) and become even more angry, and when he dies and just fall over his flesh start to turn to dust and blow away in the wind (like malzahar) and just crumbles to a bile of bones on the ground. That would be so awesome i would play Sion all the time.

P.S. I don't know where the skin teams thread is, but maybe you could ask them since Twitch got venom cask that ganster throw a gas grenade and vandal a spray can.

So I was wondering, do you guys use motion capture for some animation? If so, do you actually hire like motion capture movers/dancers?

Yes I have some experience in this area. Although used in rare occasions here. Does allow for dynamic programmatic animations.

Hey just want to throw some love out to the guys that animated Darius and Hecarim

Using both of them they way they move and attack just makes you feel like you are absolutely dominating people. They way Darius flies up in to the air and brings his axe down is awesome and when Hecarim starts moving at mach 5 he and brings the hammer (or spear I guess..) down on someone you feel liek you're crushing them.

Well, i'm attempting to create a game of my own using Flash (specifically CS4 Professional) and Actionscript is giving me a headache trying to figure it out. So far that's my only gripe with the project.

How about solving a question that a lot of people(Namely those on the Lore and RP boards) have had about a certain champion that's been around for a while....




So does Jax actually have 7 eyes, 3 fingers, and two toes or is he wearing a mask/gloves/feet things that makes him look like that? d=



Edit: And what's the probability of an Unmasked Jax skin?

Why do Zyra's plants have a death animation when they time out? It seems like it would not have been that hard to give them a different animation (receding into the ground or something). Watching them constantly "dying" when they have taken no damage just looks bad. Not trying to sound too harsh, but it looks like the animation team ran out of time on that one.

Annie's W. The animation doesn't quite match the size or shape of the shot.
