Free Kick Animations Edit

[N Town Skillz]

Hi Guys

So I was playing around with some assigned animations for players, and I noticed that there are actually some missing from the database's such as Bale's animation of his knuckle ball FK animation. I have assigned different styles to different players just so play around with it to see what there was out there!

Here is the best video link I could find to the different FK animations that are present in the game from the start.

I noticed that in the video there are 11 animations, but in the database editors that I use (Cm16 and Database Master) there are only a maximum of 9 that can be selected from. So I assume the game recognises that there are up to this many animations, which you can assign to your virtual pro, but no other player.

If you look a little further into this using Database Master, you can see that Bale's assigned FK animation is '0', in actual fact, it should be '11', and should represent this in the database I would have assumed?

I know that the free kick animations are not that important in the grand schemes of the game, but it does add a little more variation to the gameplay.

So my question is, as there are 2 of these that are not selectable from the database options, is there anyway that these can be added in or selected? It would have thought this possible, as the game needs to tell which player needs to use which animation.

I hope someone can help shed some light on this!

There are 4 free kick/penalty animation values. I just checked, and the free kick values in FIFA 12 are 0-9, so I'm not sure where you're coming up with 11. Seems it's always been 0-9.

Thanks for replying to me, and when you say the 4 values, do you mean all the animations you can actually modify? So the FK start position, penalty position, penalty run up, and penalty shot animations?

I was meaning the animation they use for a free kick. If you watch the video, you can see there is a clear 11 variations of the FK run up?

Yes.

I don't know why, there are only 10 animation values to choose in the players table (0-9), plus CM 16 only lists 10 choices as well. There is a Power Free Kick trait though, so that's another something to look at.

So I can see there are the 10 animations you are right, but that would still leave the 11th which is Gareth Bales. In game and in the arena he has his own animation free kick, and I would have thought that the databases would have been able to edit this?

So you are sure his FK animation is different than the other 10 that are available to assign using CM 16? Well like I said, there is a Power Free Kick trait, maybe that is why he appears to have a different FK animation?

Checking both DBM and CM, there doesn't appear to be any other FK choices than the 0-9 values. So I don't know where else you might look to edit. But it could also be these games (both EA and Konami) are now coding in unique animations for specific players only, and that those animations aren't available to use for any other players.

Yes 100% sure he has. Been messing around a lot with the game to know that its different. You can change it to the same style as Ronaldo's no problem, and messi's and Luis Suarez, but with Bale's (wide stance on the video link) there is not an option for it. Give it a try yourself with those players!

If you go into the online pro creation, thats where you can see the different styles and its the same as the video I linked in. So it seems the game knows what they are, so the animation in general is present for use. Its just about where that file might be, or where the coding for the game to tell that specific player to have that animation..
