   Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I've been lurking around here for around 2 months or so and finally decided to rear my ugly head and ask for pointers and help with my work.

   Thanks for the crits Nose, the only issue is these are for a personal thing for The Specialists mod so some of the stuff like a lunge on the dive doesn't blend well with the way the game works in the animations. For instance, when a player hits the dive button, they're essentially already in the air, so the lunge would be…
