Xmodel with Anim in Game in Modding

There's a few things you would need to do to make that happen, would be good to have some basic knowledge of setting up a simple script. because i'm sure i'll forget one or two 'basic' steps..

1.
First of all, obv place the model in your map as a script_model and give it a targetname. I'm gonna use

Code Snippet

Plaintext

flag_mdl - targetname

in this example.

2.
A model that plays an animation needs an animtree. Pretty easy to make one, just create the folder:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

animtrees

in your mods\mapname\ folder.
In there make a new tekst-file and name it anything, but give it the extension .atr. I'm gonna use:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

flag_anims.atr

Now open that file, and just paste the name of the xanim in it (and nothing else), and save it.

3.

You need to add the xanim, and animtree to your MOD.csv. Like this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

xanim,NAME_OF_THE_ANIM_FILE
rawfile,animtrees/flag_anims.atr

4.
Now the script that plays the anim, make a new .gsc in your mods\mapname\maps\ folder. Name it whatever you like.
Open it, and paste this in it: Also replace the "NAME_OF_THE_ANIM_FILE" with the actual name of the anim you using

Code Snippet

Plaintext

#include maps\_utility; 
#include common_scripts\utility;
#include maps\_zombiemode_utility;

#using_animtree( "flag_anims" );            // here you put the animtree you made

main()
{
	flags = getentarray( "flag_mdl", "targetname" );
        array_thread(flags,::play_flag_anims);
}

play_flag_anims()
{
	self UseAnimTree(#animtree);					// here we tell the model wich animtree to use
 
	while(1)
	{
		self animscripted( "flag_idle", self.origin, self.angles, %NAME_OF_THE_ANIM_FILE );			// this plays the anim
		self waittill( "flag_idle", end );															// wait for the end of the anim
		self clearanim( %NAME_OF_THE_ANIM_FILE, 0 );												// clear the anim, so it can play again
	}
}

5.

Now all thats left is to call this script from your mapname.gsc, under the line

Code Snippet

Plaintext

maps\_zombiemode::main();

add this line:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

maps\NAME_OF_THE_GSC_YOU_MADE::main();

6.
Compile, and dont forget to click the new file's in your MOD-builder

I assumed you have an animation you want to play over and over, so this script runs in a loop. There's prob other ( and better ) ways to play an animation in a loop. There's quite a few functions to use for anims. However this works too
