I don't mind if the guy doesn't move on the bike, but it would be nice to at least see his arms when riding in first person. It looks kind of funny without them.

Re: Speeder Bike Stance.

There was a tad of discussion about this awhile ago, and the impression I walked away with is that for this to work you'd have to have the same model of hands for ALL riders, reb and imp. Though I kinda like the idea of some 'riding gloves' that any rider would 'put on'. I see no reason why they couldn't be 'stored' in the glove compartment on the back.

Good point. Kind of reminds me of the hands in the Forgotten Hope mod when you were flying a plane. They were generic enough to look either Axis or Allies. I'm sure something like that could be implimented.

Re: Speeder Bike Stance.

Gotta say that seeing the guy on the bike move would be nice....

as for the vid released I have nothing but praise. If there's ONE thing I could say I hated the most about SWBF1 It was how bad the speeder bikes were. Especially from 1st person. They tried to give it a sense of speed, but instead blurred the vision so you can't see anything, then made the bike so fast you couldn't control it, then made the physics so bad that hitting a shrub would blow you up. Bikes were instant suicide in that game.

These on the other hand, look freakin' sweet!

Re: Speeder Bike Stance.

You couldn't at least lean him forward a tad then?

He is sitting too upright it seems... I think his head should be leaned forward a bit, and downwards.
