Animation does not work

Babulesnik · 04-15-2011 09:18 PM

In WE created the scene and the object type assigned OBJ_ANIMATABLE,load mesh and cskel. Uploaded the world and try to start the animation:

Code:

Game::ObjMemx<Game::Animatable>ObjAnimatable;

...

Motion Anim_Man;

...

Bool Init()

{

..

ObjAnimatable[0].cskel.animate(Anim_Man,true);

}

Bool Update()

{

 ...

    if(Kb.b(KB_LEFT))

   {

       Anim_Man.set(ObjAnimatable[0].cskel,"Animation/1.anim");

       Anim_Man.updateAuto(3,3);

   }

}

But,no work...

You need to clear the skeleton first before you can animate it.

cskel.clear();

the animatable plays animation automatically, just setup skeleton/animation/mesh and rest should be handled automatically

cskel.clear();

Thanks, but no avail.

Code:

ObjAnimatable[0].cskel.clear();

   ObjAnimatable[0].cskel.animate(Anim_Man,true);

I know I put your code, you can specify in my code where I go wrong?

You need to update your animation with a Timer and update its matrix afterwards.

PHP Code:

ObjAnimatable[0].cskel.clear().animate(Anim_Man,Time.time()).updateMatrix(matrix).updateVelocities(false); 

**Esenthel** · 04-16-2011 08:02 PM

no, you don't need to manually animate the Animatable class.
You have its sources so you can investiage them - http://www.esenthel.com/community/showth...p?tid=2620
Where's the problem?
In the Anmatable::create
you can see that there's:

if(skel)if(Param *param=obj.findParam("animation"))skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(param->asText());

so you need to provide parameter with path to animation.

Thank you very much. But by pressing a button is activated only endpoint animation. Reducing the time did not react. Anim_Man.updateAuto (3,3,0.001);

ObjAnimatable[0].cskel.getSkelAnim("C:/1.anim");

Thanks, but does not work.

Tried different options but the animation does not fire at the touch of a button. Help please.

**Esenthel** · 04-17-2011 02:53 PM

getSkelAnim does not set the animation,

you need to study programming bit better,

the line I posted is important:
if(skel)if(Param *param=obj.findParam("animation"))skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(param->asText());

there are tutorials for custom parameters (SDK\tutorials\game basics\custom parameters)
also world - sdk\data\world\custom params
check objects there (you will see it has parameters)

**Esenthel** · 04-17-2011 02:55 PM

you should:
study all game tutorials from SDK
experiment on your own
read the documentation (game objects, parameters)

Thank you. I redefined virtual functions, but do not know how to change the value of parameter name and value by pressing a button. I need to change the animations dynamically.

Code:

STRUCT(Anim,Game::Animatable)

//{

virtual void create(Game::ObjParams &obj);

};

void Anim::create(Game::ObjParams &obj)

{

if(Param *param=obj.findParam("animation"))skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(param->asText());

}

If you try this way does not work...

Code:

void Anim::create(Game::ObjParams &obj)

{

    Param param;

    super::create(obj);

    param.name="animation";

    param.value.s="Anim/1.anim";

    obj.params.add(param);

}

How to do would be for different button presses to run different animation?[/align]

**Esenthel** · 04-17-2011 05:02 PM

void Anim::update()
{
if(..)skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(..);
}

Babulesnik · 04-17-2011 06:04 PM

Does not work (((

Code:

STRUCT(Anim,Game::Animatable)

//{

virtual void create(Game::ObjParams &obj);

virtual bool update();

};

void Anim::create(Game::ObjParams &obj)

{

    Param param;

    super::create(obj);

    if(Param *param=obj.findParam("animation")){param->value.s="Anim/1.anim"; skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(param->asText());}

}

bool Anim::update()

{

    Game::ObjParams obj;

    if(Param *param=obj.findParam("animation"))

    {

      if(Kb.b(KB_LEFT))param->value.s="Anim/2.anim";

      skel_anim=&cskel.getSkelAnim(param->asText());

      i=param->asText(); //Created a variable to view the value of param, but for some reason it is empty.

    }

    return true;

};

The param function doesn't belong in the update function... it only works in the create(Game::ObjParams &obj) function.. so you need to save your params there.

      i=name;

    }

    return true;

};

void Anim::save(File &f)

{

   super::save(f);

   f<<name<<value;

}

Bool Anim::load(File &f)

{

   if(super::load(f))

   {

      f>>name>>value;

      return true; 

   }

   return false;

}

Does not work all the changes are ignored.

Surely for something to just change the animation to write such a great code?
