script command for playing an animation About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011.

RsAnim. It seems to me with careful planning you should be able to play any Clips you want and I beleive Tracks are Clips. Just Disable all clips and then from script Enable the ones that you want.

Interferes with the Background Widget I suppose. that's not completely true..you can use middle mouse[/wheel] on widgets .just made one that has middle mouse click to move the widget done on the sphere in the widget center..works fine.. Also accessing the eye camera is possible: Cam = Node.SubObject("/D3DView", 0); gets the first (and usually Only I believe) item in the D3DView. Check this forum discussion, where Dele figured this out for teleporters, etc: frootee that is for one view only..it won't work when there are more views like in four view, then there is four sub-ojects in D3DView so it only reads the first..you need to use 0 ,1, 2, 3 depending on the view.. Post by frootee // Sep 8, 2007, 8:16am frootee Total Posts: 2667 Okay. That answers my other question then, which I never asked: when will there be more than one item in D3DView? Answer: when there is more than one view. Now it looks like with trueplay, there is always only one view, unless there is a way to create multiple windows within the same trueplay instance. Thanks stan! Froo Post by Asem // Sep 8, 2007, 8:30am Asem Total Posts: 255 I was going to take on another aspect that is keyboard interactive since we there is a good handle on things about activated animations based on position. I was trying to make a character move and animate by press of a keyboard button like gameplay. I have a good amount of it working but since I used a base track for a base clip it needs to be re-keyframed for each position or the character moves back to the original position though it just hit me that if I keep the base track activated and record for each frame until the animation is done for each bit of movement it may work. In a way, it would possibly mean animated avatars. Gonna try my idea so far when you activate the timer Crazy Bob bounces up and down and when I press 'K' on the keyboard he walks (If I release key he goes back to bouncing) though there is no smooth transition in between them but I think it can be down with transitional clips into the actual movement then making sure it stays in the animated state.
