Heyas,
Here's my first contribution to the script board
This is just a script to help view animations and alt. textures in the game. I honestly didn't search to see if it had been done before. It's already saved me a lot of test-game loading time and maybe can help others as well.
It's only been tested in PBUM but will likely work the same in Project Green as well unless the debug printing was added later. It won't work in vanilla because it uses Ply's variables.
Simply assign the anim_viewer.fpi script to the main AI of any dynamic entity and use PgUp/PgDn to cycle through animations and Home key to toggle textures, if assigned. Script can be useful for artists needing a way to easily check their work and for scripters deciding which animation to choose.
It's capped at 50 anims but there are only 42
selectable anims in the stock FPSC rig anyhow. You can raise/lower the cap in the script if desired. It can be used on any animated entity and not only chars.
If using alttextures, be sure the textures are located in the texturebank and not the entity's directory!
If you have a weapon assigned it will show the appropriate anim based on the anim input number. So, if you have a pistol assigned and you select anim6 it will show the pistol reload, not the throw.
Known semi-buggy things are that if you have an alttexture assigned in the editor or FPE but don't have the alttexture in texturebank, the model will go white and its lighting will get messed up. Also, if you want to view anim0 (spawn, you must go up to anim1 then back down to anim0.
Lastly, if there is no anim assigned for the slot you have selected, they will just be frozen until a valid animation is selected.

Here's the script (also attached to post):
;//Artificial Intelligence Script
;//PBUM/PG test anims (manual cycle) debug/QA script by EAI
;//Assign to any entity/char with animation to easily view animation playback.
;//Adjust varless=anim X conditions to adjut anim number cap.
;//Stock chars only go up to anim42 and will display only the animation subset for the weapon assigned. This is the scriptable animation number and not the FPE animation number!
;//Notes: I don't think the printval action is working and I'm too ignorant to set up a numeric hud :S
;//KNOWN ISSUES: To view anim #0, you must first go up to anim1 then back down to anim0. If using alttextures, the textures MUST be loacted in texturebank.

I wanted to have a numeric hud to display anim# but I don't know how to do that yet
And here's a screenshot:
Any problems, please let me know.
