Update v0.2 (Sept 02, 2003): What's new: 1) Modified the Shaolin open stance to make it more elegant 2) Modified unarmed close-in attack from elbow/forearm smash to flurry of punches Older features: 1) cat's paw stance for unarmed combat 2) alternate stances for 2-weapon fighting 3) whilwind-strike for 2-weapon 'reach' animation To install: unzip file and copy to the override folder. This file is not compatible with anything that modifies the a_ba_med_weap.mdl file. Please send me your comments or suggestions.
you guys don't know karate you just read about it and think you know what you're talking about. All nerds try to take karate, when really they would get their asses kicked in real life. Keep up the fantasy you guys, works great over the internet ;)

This aint Karate dude, Sides Karate is balls compared to Kung fu. This is actualy a real stance And if you notice he is facing his enemy, No experianced fighter would alow a blow from there oponent but Karate is all about Defence and reversal which in my opinion blows. That stance comes from a style that is all about offence, Overwealm your oponent come in close and force them to step back which is where you want em.

I'm a martial arts teacher. I've studied for over a decade. Real martial arts, implemented in game form, would be very boring. This is a game. If you want to see REAL martial arts, keep studying at your studio.

This is a compilation of the old system into a single score. There were 38 that made this score of 9.44 then rounded to 9.

I like these animations but they need an update. They interfere with the whirlwind attack animation. When these animations are in place Whirlwind Attack doesnt function, all you get is the damage and the spray of dust your character just stands there. Otherwise cool stuff.

If it were realistic, the stance would be that of Muay Thai(the best stand up fighting style of the world). But since it's fantasy, it useses some kind of kung fu stance(and really, videogames and fantasy are the only places where kung fu works).

I myself know martial arts, and I glanced over the preview of the stances etc., and have a suggestion. I noticed with the stances and kicks that the monk is left open for attack at his stomach....I know from experience that when somone is fighting against a skilled combatant, any open areas are going to be hit or at least attacked. My suggestion is that perhaps you could alter the techniques to make the monk put more effort to cover the open areas. Maybe not with the stances, but at least the attacks. Just a suggestion though. :P
