This is what the game NEEDS! Many of the current animations simply suck, for want of a better word. Unless you are already, I seriously think you should be animating the new models that are being created for the game in case they are added (and they damn should be).
I guess you should rename the thread (dont know if thats possible) to something like "Improved animations for 106". So it's easier for Reg to see what it is about.
Do you think NASA invented thunderstorms to cover up the sound of space battles?
I updated 106's textures, so if you can use these in the next test it'd give us a better idea of the final in game result. Also, I have to say how awesome it looks(again). You gave him a real sense of weight.
