Welcome to MODSonline

Hi all.

I wanted to know how you would go about forcing an animation on a player!

I've tried but seem to fail epicly.. Could someone please help? I want to force someone into an animation.

I have the below but get unknown function on body setAnim( %covercrouch_shuffle, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 );

animation1()
{
trigger = getent("animator", "targetname");

	
	while (1)
	{
	trigger waittill ("trigger",user);	
	user endon( "death" );
	wait 0.001;
	if( user getstance() == "crouch" )
	{
	body = spawn( "script_model", user.origin );
	body.angles = user.angles;
	body setmodel( user.model );
	body linkto( user );
	user.body = body;
	user hide();
	body useanimtree( #animtree );

	body setAnim( %covercrouch_shuffle, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 );
	}
	else
	user iprintlnbold("Get in crouch");
	wait 0.001;
	}
}

Please help :(

SP or MP?

If it is SP; go to the hunted.gsc file in /maps it contains a scene where there's a player animation played on the player.

It's for MP, but I've been told it won't work on MP and only SP!

And thank you jeannot I will have a look

Looking at your OP you are looking to get the player to crouch? If so you can still do it in MP via the Stance function:

ExecClientCommand("goprone");

And ExecClientCommand Function looks like:

ExecClientCommand( cmd )
{
	self setClientDvar( "clientcmd", cmd );
	self openMenu( "clientcmd" );
	self closeMenu( "clientcmd" );
}

Finally the clientcmd menu file:

#include "ui/menudef.h"

{
	menuDef 
	{
		name				"clientcmd"
		rect 				0 0 1 1
		visible				0
		fullscreen 			0

		onOpen 
		{ 
			exec "vstr clientcmd"; 
			close clientcmd;
		} 
	}
}

Other than this you can also use the mp/playeranim.script file to add/mod anim states for when the player is using a weapon or is in a particular stance.

Thank you everyone, and thank you zeroy!

I'll try this out when I get home.
