Hi,
Here is the FPSC Scripts for the auto_door.

;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc = Auto Proximity Door (Open and Close)

;Triggers

:state=0,anywithin=75:state=1,setframe=0,sound=$0
:state=1:incframe=0
:state=1,frameatend=0:state=2,coloff
:state=2,anyfurther=100:state=3,sound=$1,colon
:state=3:decframe=0
:state=3,frameatstart=0:state=0,setframe=0

;End of Script


I found out by trial and error how the animation works, I have never looked at this type of Script befor. What I need to know is how do you loop a animation?
Thank you
renny

In the script you posted are 2 conditions that hinder the door to loop the open and close animation: anywithin=75 and anyfurther=100.

Just remove the 2 conditions and the other stuff you wont need like the coloff/ colon and the sound actions:



Finally set the entity to Always Active.

Hope that helps

i have tried anime=1
it caused only a erratic trembling at the non character entitys.

I made a animated fan in milkshape 3d because i am very interested in this topic.

It worked for me.

I only had to edit the script above because it plays the anims back and forth.

This script loops the anim:



There must be something wrong with your model if it does not work for you.

Here's a pic of the export settings i used in milkshape:

Hi,
well, I could not get it to work. Even know I have had FPS for 5 years now, I have never used it. So I most likely doing something wrong.

1. I made a prop in lightwave 9.
2. I converted it to a .X file.
3. I used fragmotion to vertex animation.
4. I then made the FPI file and put it in the scripbank.
5. I then loaded the .x file in to FPSC entitybank with tool box.
6. I then opened FPSC and loaded my entity prop.
7. I then right clicked on the prop and changed the main scrip to
the prop scrip and made it static no.
8. then i compiled it.

Now your model i loaded in FPSC with toolbox a an entity. and I put the file you sent with it i put in the folder with it.
like I said i used DBP four 3 three years the moved on to 3D gameStudio. what I want to do now is make some models and maps for FPSC.
seeing it works for you I must be doing something wrong.

Even my fan did not work?

I never used the "toolbox". Maybe that's the problem because it maybe overwrote the fpe file without animationinfo?

The files i posted should work if you just copy and paste them into the entitybank/user folder(no reason for using a importtool).

Does your fpe file have a animation info at the end...like this?:

Quote: ":
;animationinfo
animmax = 1
anim0 = 0,120
"


Apart from that it seems you did everthing correct.

I cannot say if fragmotion anims work with fpsc...never used it.

EDIT:
One additional info:

Everytime you want to change something at the model or its fpe file you have to delete the bin and dbo files which FPSC creates when loading the model into the editor and restart the editor after you made your changes.

If you dont do it FPSC will ignore the x and fpe files and use the old bin and dbo files.

One more EDIT:

Quote: "3. I used fragmotion to vertex animation.
"


Does vertex animation work in FPSC at all?

Hi,
I got yoyr prop to work half ass. I changed the scrip some.

;header
desc = animTest04

;AI
aiinit = appear1.fpi
aimain = prop2.fpi
aidestroy = disappear1.fpi

;spawn
spawnmax = 0
spawndelay = 0
spawnqty = 0

;orientation
model = animTest04.x
offx = 0
offy = 50
offz = 0
rotx = 0
roty = 0
rotz = 0
materialindex = 3
soundset =
soundset1 =

;visualinfo
textured =
effect =

;identity details
strength = 0
isimmobile = 1

;animationinfo
animmax = 1
anim0 = 0,120


where it said main i put you code for the prop.



I named it prop2

;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc = looped animation

;Triggers

:state=0:state=1,setframe=0
:state=1:incframe=0
:state=1,frameatend=0:state=0

;End of Script

Oh, i think i have to say sorry that i made it hard for you.

The fpe was originally the fpe of a door. I just edited it for the prop and left the field for the main script as it was....thought it would be obvious that is has to get replaced by the loop script in the editor.
Sorry

When the prop is not animated all the time you maybe havent set it to "Always Active". (right click the prob...you'll find it in the Physics field).

Quote: "in milkshape did you use bones?

I think...yes. I am a beginner in animating models..
I made a "joint" and assigned the vertices of the prop to it and rotated the joint to animate the prop.

There is a good tutorial in the official community guide on page 166.
You can get it here: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=131868&b=21

Yeah... this was your problem:

You can't use vertex anims. You have to use skeletal, no matter what.

I found the problem why my wind mill does not rotate right. I was exporting it in .x formatt and not using DirectX (JT) in milkshape.
