Working Animations + Anim loop script

[KEVINMGXP 20]

Hi all,

I was making my mission and as part of the development I was also planning to implement various animations, however for some reason certain animations that we know from ArmA2 might not exactly work as we are used to. I tried to use the anim viewer and working my way trough the animations but I was not able to make them work, but I kept looking for a solution. After the past Q&A Panzer_baron said he would release the list for the anims in Iron front but in the mean while I have a small list of already working anims here.

I thought it might help the community a bit till we get a more detailed list.

To make them work you will need to place a trigger for some reason the animations aren't working from within the units initialization box.

Example1:

Name the unit AN1

Place a trigger on the map size 10 by 10, place the trigger above the unit and within the trigger

Activation: whichever side the unit is or to make it easy Anybody.

Condition: This

On Act:

AN1 switchmove "intro_saed";

Example2: This includes using a script! Which will cause the animations to loop indefinitely..

Place the code in to a SQF and call it animationLoop.sqf

Code without Weapons.

_unit = _this select 0;
_animation = _this select 1;
_noWeapons = _this select 2;

_unit setVariable ["BIS_noCoreConversations", true];
if (_noWeapons) then {removeAllWeapons _unit};

while {true} do {
_unit switchMove _animation;
waitUntil {!(animationState _unit == _animation)};
};

Code with weapons.

_unit = _this select 0;
_animation = _this select 1;

_unit setVariable ["BIS_noCoreConversations", true];
if (_noWeapons) then {removeAllWeapons _unit};

while {true} do {
_unit switchMove _animation;
waitUntil {!(animationState _unit == _animation)};
};

Then do the same as with example1 but change the code in the on act field like this.

Name the unit AN1

Place a trigger on the map size 10 by 10, place the trigger above the unit and within the trigger

Activation: whichever side the unit is or to make it easy Anybody.

Condition: This

On Act:

AN1 switchmove "LHD_midDeck"; nil = [AN1,"LHD_midDeck",true] execVM "animationLoop.sqf";

Be aware of the fact that this freezes up certain animations on the end and it might not work on several of them!

Also I am not the author of the script! and as of this moment I do not know who the author is as the script wasn't signed.

Hi there,

anyone know the animations they use in the background of Iron Front ? Like in the russian camp ? or the germans walking by near a destroyed tank ?

I searched for them, but it seems like, I'm just unable to do so.

Did these ever turn up?
