DMA Animations -UniGen- released!

The great addonmaker Sanctuary has released the DMA Animation replacement pack “UniGen” in the BIS Forum.

This pack was created to get rid of a visual annoyance when playing with an addon that has been created using the BIS resistance new civilian model as a basis and one of my animation pack.
While no real visual annoyances with my other animation packs could be spotted on a model built from OFP Cold War Crisis soldiers (the majority of the addons available) , more and more addons makers are now using the Resistance new civilian model that come with the BIS free model pack for Oxygen, and without them adapting the new Resistance model arms to fit my animation pack (Williec and Offtime kindly did it for their units), it looks rather ugly in 1st person view, the arm was hiding the hand, or was going through the weapon.
The specific hand position on my other animation packs , like the “NextGen” one, were made to give the illusion that the soldier was visually “catching” a weapon barrel with the whole hand in 1st person view , while the BIS hand position was in fact catching the weapon barrel between 2 fingers.
But the BIS hand position had a strong advantage over my choice : the 1st person view looked mostly the same with the old CWC model , and the newer Resistance one.
So in order to have something that look good enough, whatever base model is used for an addon, i decided to create this new animation pack, codename “UniGen” for Universal Generic. As i used the same BIS hand position, the 1st person view should look visually acceptable with every kind of model based on the new Resistance civilian model , or based on a Cold War Crisis model.
Another good side effect is that some units without sleeves or something to hide their wrist (lack of, in OFP,) junction will have their wrist ‘repaired’.
