The solution for this long known problem had been available long time ago. Solution: that never happens to a new beast because he have already a single frame for dead body. But the other monsters need such a frame too.

model "highres/sprites/monsters/4610_newbeast.md3" {
...
   anim { frame0 "4681_start" frame1 "4681_end" fps 20 flags 1 }  
   frame { name "4681_start" tile0 4681 tile1 4689 }
   frame { name "4689" tile 4689 }  // dead body
...
}

model "highres/sprites/monsters/2000_pigcop.md3" {
...
   anim { frame0 "DIE2" frame1 "DIE3" fps 20 flags 1 }
   frame { name "DIE2" tile0 2056 tile1 2060 }
   frame { name "DIE3" tile 2060 }  // dead body
...
}

I don't think that helps anything. It's simply a Duke thing. Even in dos, original Duke a decade ago death animations were often repeated for a variety of reasons.
