Realism in Toribash
Hi, I joined some months ago, and as I saw some replays, such as Oblivion's Spar, I wonder how it's so smooth, and what he does to his joints to make it look so realistic.
And add a lot of practice and editing to the recipe in order to get good replays like Oblivion's.

actually realism and smooth moves are really really hard to make. it needs alot ALOT of practice and game knowledge to let it look "decent" and still not "Perfect"...

actually the key is to relax much parts and dont play with to much holded or moved joints.
also it will help to watch replays like these from oblivion, maybe sometimes press P to stop the replay and watch it over Shift + P in slowmotion, or pres E to watch which joints hes moving, u will notice much will be laxed..

also it depends on the gravity, so far i know the standart sparr replay from oblivion which got installed with toribash is -20, -20 is a quite very hard gravity to play realism, it needs more practice then -30, so i would say u just start with playing around in -30 gravity, to know how it works good there.. if u think u can play good with -30 try to start making some decent replay, and keep practicing.

also if u want to go a step more, watch some tricking and parkour videos on youtube or such, to see how it works in "real" then just try it to copy that, or atleast just try it!

if u want i can upload some replays from me, which are not good with much more practice it will get better.. (too see not every "high" belt or such is a pro at replay making etc.)

I realistick replays can be more hold then relax, so don't use a lot of lax, use hold and relax to the best of, also see a nuthug's replay's, he too realistick replay maker. Check santos7877's tricking, Hours replays.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
My replay is on -30 gravity, you can check it if you open it up with notepad x)
When it comes to gravity, always go with -30. It has been standardized as the official gravity for realism, so if you use -20 or so, people will say it was too easy to jump and if you use -40 it'll be actually harder to move and jump.

But on topic, it's pretty much practice and critical thinking. First you need to learn what each joint does alone and in combination with other joints, and then you need to learn some basic movements, and then eventually you'll be able to move more smoothly.
What I did was practice at least 5 minutes a day or so, and when I made a replay I always tried to surpass everything I had done before, and then I gradually became better.
