Animation flags

[elsewhat]

AI::TASK_PLAY_ANIM has an animationFlag parameter. This is binary based, the same way as the driving style is (ref http://gtaforums.com/topic/822314-guide-driving-styles/).

 

The flags has been tested on a task sequence with multiple animations

AI::TASK_PLAY_ANIM(0, animLibrary, animName, 8.0f, -8.0f, duration, animationFlag, 8.0f, 0, 0, 0);

 

(duration has been found through ENTITY::GET_ENTITY_ANIM_TOTAL_TIME)

8 = play normally

9 = loop

 

48 = play normally only upper body

49 = loop only upper body

 

u can mix and match anims

i know there is a flag for just doing an animation on the left/right arm or any bodypart, anyone know?

I'm looking to go deep with animations for Machinima

Flag animations just gives you "modes" on how you want the animation to play on the player.

 

Do you know LUA or C# .NET (or programming in general)? This is going to be difficult if you don't.

 

Here's a LUA example of how flags are used (using 48). The below animation can be played in the car and the player will hit the steering wheel with their hand. This also allows you to keep control of the vehicle OR allow Autodrive mods to continue controlling the vehicle while you play animations.

AI.TASK_PLAY_ANIM(playerPed, "[email protected]@[email protected][email protected]_a", "hit_wheel", 2.0, -2.0, -1, , 48, 0, true, false, true)

I'm not very well versed in C# but I believe the same can be acheived using:

Function.Call(Hash.TASK_PLAY_ANIM(playerPed, "[email protected]@[email protected][email protected]_a", "hit_wheel", 2.0, -2.0, -1, , 48, 0, true, false, true);

OR use the following function (there are other versions of this function):

void Tasks::PlayAnimation(System::String ^animDict, System::String ^animName, float blendInSpeed, float blendOutSpeed, int duration, AnimationFlags flags, float playbackRate)

Is there a guide about animations flags? Im trying to find these:
