one shot animation

[cassius]

I am struggling to get a "die" animation working properly. My routine works for some characters but not for others.

 

Anyone got some code I could look at?

 

c++ preffered but lua ok too.

This is taken from my code, obviously it wont just work if you copy paste but it might help lead you in the right direction. Hope this helps.

 

void GameCharacter::SetAnimationSequence(float blendTime)
{
blendStart = Time::GetCurrent();

blendFinish = blendStart + blendTime;
}

 

void MagicUser::CharacterAnimate(long sequence)
{
GameCharacter::CharacterAnimate(sequence);

entity->LockMatrix();

switch (sequence)
{
case kStateIdle:
{
if (GetState() != GetPrevState()) SetAnimationSequence(200);

float animSpeed = 0.008F;

float blend = (Time::GetCurrent() - blendStart) / (blendFinish - blendStart);

blend = Math::Min(1.0, blend);

frame = (Time::GetCurrent() - blendStart) * animSpeed;

entity->SetAnimationFrame(frame, blend, sequence, true);

break;
}
case kStateWalk:
{
if (GetState() != GetPrevState()) SetAnimationSequence(500);

float animSpeed = 0.0327F;

float blend = (Time::GetCurrent() - blendStart) / (blendFinish - blendStart);

blend = Math::Min(1.0, blend);

frame = (Time::GetCurrent() - blendStart) * animSpeed;

entity->SetAnimationFrame(frame, blend, sequence, true);

//if ((int)(frame) % 5 == 0 || (int)(frame) % 14 == 0)
//{
// entity->EmitSound(Sound::Load("Sound/Player/footstep1.wav"), 5);

Yeah. That helps thanks.
