Sequence always repeating.

by gamer · in Artist Corner · 11/15/2006 (1:23 pm) · 7 replies

Whenver I call a sequence(animation) in game using %aiplayer.setActionThread(%sequenceName,0), it always repeats itself..., the second argument hold is suppose to only play it once if it's set to 0. What's wrong?
thanks

Is the sequence cyclic?

Yes I believe it is, I am exporting the sequence from max 3d, how do I make it noncyclic?
thanks!

In the DTS exporter be sure the checkbox saying cyclic is NOT checked

I am using the DTS Exporter Utility for max 3d, both the old version and the new one don't have a checkbox cyclic, the only thing close is the cycle sequence checkbox and complete cycle checkbox (under sequence manager), but both of them are unchecked...
any idea?

Actually when I uncheck cyclic checkbox, and then I export the dts and come back to the sequence panel again, the checkbox automatically checks itself again.... and the resulting sequence is still cyclic when I view it from showtool...
what's going on? I repeated it this process many times, and each time after I leave the sequence panel and come back, the cyclic checkbox checks itself...

Gotta uncheck the cycliyc checkbox in the sequence helper not the exporter. Ya can use the new exporter jes fine. But double check the sequence helper dummy.
