Not everyone hates them. Once you have a system they aren't that scary.
Quick mini-tut for you, sir Thorneous, if you want to use it. Mini in more than one sense.
Set your SpriteOffset to be half of the component parts.
For this sprite, x = -26.5 and y = -8.
Then open up your sprite in some image editing program that displays pixel locations. I use Paint. Find the locations where you want to put the hands of the soldier. I chose the two spaces at the back of the gun, backmost for the primary hand. If the point is to the left of your SpriteOffset, your JointOffset x component will be negative. If the point is above your SpriteOffset, your JointOffset y component will be negative. Decide how far, absolute value, your chosen point is from your SpriteOffset, and put that value in for the x and y components, with correct sign.
I chose 15,10 and 20,10 for the JointOffset and SupportOffset, so the offset coordiantes for those are -11.5, 1 and -6.5, 1.
For the StanceOffsets, you'll have to play with them a bit. They decide where the primary hand should be placed from the reference of the body's SpriteOffset.
For a sniper, you should probably keep the hands close to the body in normal mode and out in front during sharp mode, so I chose 2,5 and 5,-2 for Stance and SharpStance respectively.
For the last, it works much the same. MuzzleOffset should be all the way at the other end of the gun, so the x coordinate will be positive and most likely the y component will be negative because it is above the SpriteOffset.
I chose 26.5, -2, that looks to be right about the correct place.
And that about does it. Here's the updated .ini I produced, feel free to use it.
