GuiPlayerView animation question

by Jacob · in Torque Game Engine · 11/27/2005 (2:47 pm) · 6 replies

I am hoping for some help with this issue:

I have a GuiPlayerView set up and my player model loads into it but it's static. I would like to have it play an animation like the "forward" animation that seems to show in the Realm Wars player selection screen.

Here is the command I am using to make it happen:

ShowPlayer.setModel("Game/Data/Player/player.dts", "Game/Data/Player/player_run.dsq");

Is there anything else I need to do to have my animation play?

Thanks!

Try this instead.

According to this thread, animation in guiPlayerView hasn't ever worked properly, but guiObjectView should give you the fuinctionality you're looking for.

~Hope this helps

I'm not 100% certian where the guiObjectView code should be placed for it to compile correctly. Any help for this code-noob will be greatly appreciated :)

Cheers

My .cc & .h files are in engine/gui
And in the example/fps/client/ (scripts & ui) I placed the .cs and .and .gui ;o)
