I present to you a remake of the Beta Shoulder Rifle Walkstyle which was cut from The Lost and Damned. Using a Leftover frame found in the Grenade Launcher Animations.



---Installation---

1. Use OpenIV (or SparkIV) and find the Directory of TLaD [The folder with the PC & Common Folders]

-Try one of the following directories, It Depends on the Game/version you have

DLC + IV: GTA IV\TLAD or GTA IV\DLC\TLAD\content\
EFLC: "EFLC\" (or EFLC\TLAD\)

(If you want to install it to TBOGT, ditto as above but TBoGT instead of TLaD)


2. From TLaD's Folder, Go to pc\anim\anim.img and replace move_rifle.wad

(If you want to install it to IV, Ditto as TLaD but in GTA IV's directory )

*I have included backups of all 3 Move_rifle files if you want them originals back or if you accidentally replace it in the wrong episode.






--Bugs--
. Some Peds Arms Break with this animation.
. (Some) Animations are/maybe slightly choppy, I've tried to fix the majority of them.
. The Pinkie/little finger may randomly re-adjust when shifting between animations, just don't look at them i guess. (I had to painstakenly manually re-adjust them for ever animation so they are all different from each other).
. Some Weapons may clip/be inside the hand and arm, this is a problem with the original animation and not the mod, probably one of the reasons it got cut.





--Tools used--
. 3DS Max
. GIMS IV
. GTA IV Animation rig
. OpenIV
. Notepad


--How this was done--
I probably did this in the worst way possible since I used the save/load animation in 3ds Max to copy the frame from the grenade launcher
(I also had to set the key for all the frames in the animation so it would copy over to every frame on the walk ones). The feature broke when I used a player mesh but fine with the ped animation rig template so i used that, exported,
re-imported onto a player mesh and painstakingly manually fixed the pinkies on all 21 animations I edited by hand. Some flags/sections in the .onim file were also edited in notepad to fix some bugs such as the player moving sideways
with the 'turn' anims and also probaby the sounds.




--Other Notes--
This mod MAY recieve any updates in the future, maybe a version which also has the sprint and runs? Also possibly a version with the beta walkstyle, this will not come out at least for a good for months or a year as this burnt me out. 
and was done in the worst way possible. (read the how it was done section)
I have only uploaded this mod to gtainside/my mod workshop, any other upload on any other site was not done by me without my permission. (COUGH COUGH GTAALL)
