Your NPCs are standing around like store mannequins. The Idles Pack gives them 238 motion capture animations across 22 sets -- the subtle, lifelike behaviors that make a game world feel genuinely inhabited.
From shifting weight and crossing arms to smoking a cigarette, shivering in the cold, or desperately needing the bathroom, these are the details that separate a living world from a static one. Every animation is captured in a professional studio and cleaned up by hand for maximum believability.
Like all MoCap Central packs, animations share matching entry and exit poses for seamless blending with our other packs. Join our active Discord Community where we listen to indie devs and give away free animations.
