Larian Senior Animator, Marian Arnold has taken RPG Vault through the switch to 3D character models in Riftrunner Peek of the Week #2. Here's a snip:
Unfortunately, it also had the disadvantage that we needed a tremendous amount of data to store it all. If I recall correctly, we needed 1.3 CDs alone for the hero animations in all their variations. The six heroes in Divinity contained together over 900,000 frames of animation, and the dragon you meet at the end of the game contained over 100 MB in uncompressed data. As a result, we animators had to keep the frame count relatively low, and because of that, the quality of the animations was compromised.
