Alternative animation (stance) for “buddy aid” (medic). It´s not a new animation, rather a renamed original BFC animation file. Medic is simply lying prone, weapon put aside, while doing first aid action. This is a CMBN base game animation replace, but also works for any modules, whether you have them, or not. CMFI and CMRT is untested, but might work too.
Unzip the Ani file to your games data/z folder.
Additional notes: The medic (tend to casualty) stance/animation uses a single unique file shared through all the games TOE´s (German, US, CW), thus effecting friendly and enemy medic animation stance alike. This is the case for play vs the AIP on a single computer, for which this mod is intended for. The mod is completely untested for H2H/PBEM games, where one player might have the mod installed and the other not. So any feedback from PBEM players is highly welcome!
The changed stance/animation for the medic gives him the benefit of any other soldier in same stance (lying prone), beeing a smaller target for enemy spotting (attempts) and fire. No more medics that reveal the position (drawing enemy fire) of their team mates, particularly when in hide mode!
Since H2H/PBEM play is untested, players should be aware that only one player using the mod probably gains an advantage the other player has not (better stealth/survival for medics)! Unless there´s no confirmation on likely problems or cheating opportunities with this mod, I recommend NOT using this mod in H2H/PBEM play.
