Bear Mounts - tack and animation
Irathray
✭✭
I've been waiting for a bear mount for my dunmer granny for ages, and I'm glad I was finally able to get one! But there are a couple of things that seem out of place on them, and I apologize if this has been addressed before!
For one, the riding animation. IDK if it's just on my character or not, but she seems to float above the bear when it's running, and has her hands grasped around the air above the reins. I mean, I know Granny's a big girl, but surely she doesn't need to hover just slightly above the bear while it's galloping.
Secondly, and I've attached a screenshot, but how does that bridle stay on???

Irathray✭✭Hahaha, Bare Necessities! You have a good point there.
And proper Dunmer? You, my friend, have never met Granny Flowers.

✭✭✭✭✭Those problems are bearly worth mentioning.

That's right... Horse.

✭✭✭✭✭Should just grin and bear it. I mean it is bearable, though I can see the problem being bear to deal with. Bear in mind the bear is brand new... Bear.3 -
prnoprno✭✭✭They talked about the animation behind the bear in one of the recent ESO Live. Given the wobbly gallop of a bear, they decided to have the riders appear standing somewhat like on a race horse. Otherwise the rider would be bobbing up and down too much.
So there's supposed to be some space between the rider's crotch and the saddle, but I've also noticed a bigger gap between the rider's legs and the sides of the bear than I'm comfortable with. I just keep my camera angled so it doesn't bother me.1 -

I suppose that makes sense. They bobble a LOT as it is... looks very uncomfortable, and rather funny. My sweet little dunmer sorceress fell in love with the cuddlywuddlybears, but after one lap around the city she fell off vowing never again.They talked about the animation behind the bear in one of the recent ESO Live.

yes, that bothers me too. If the legs weren't standing way out to the side it wouldn't look so much like they were floating.. . . but I've also noticed a bigger gap between the rider's legs and the sides of the bear than I'm comfortable with. I just keep my camera angled so it doesn't bother me.
and I do agree the bridle could use some work... from the front the reigns stand out away from it rather than hanging as one would expect.Edited by Aelthwyn on November 15, 2015 10:37AM0 -
