I have an object and I appended all the animation data to it...the problem is that lets say I want to animate it from frame 500 to 525...It will animate all the way from 1 to 525 and THEN start looping from 500 to 525...I even tried using the Set Object Frame Command! What should I do?
(and no I don't want to manually automate the animation using the Set Object Frame Command)

Beats me. The 'set object frame' command should put it at the right frame, then it should work. Sure you're using the command properly? It should only be used once when you are starting the animation.

what about playing the object with the same parameters as a work around if that command is buggy in the version u have installed. did u send an xfile and code snippet to the DBS team for bug evaluation?.

If you use PLAY OBJECT object_number,start_frame,end_frame
it will only play once, not loop.

u can make a loop yourself around the play command until the command is restored maybe if i assume its used correctly and u have the latest updates.

I want it to loop, and I only used that command once in my code...right before the MAIN LOOP. I even tried to preset the frame using the set object frame command before my Loop Object command...I'm so confizzled

if the end keyframe of the animtion is reached then replay it.

do this in your loop not outside for the time being

maybe thats a work around until the command is fixed.

The best thing to do is send the boys a easy to understand snippet of the command in use and all the nuiances and quirks u have found.

It wont get fixed any other way unless they know about the error and have some indication as to whats what.

your method above might work I havent tested it but it looks plausible wouldnt u say?
