Hi,
Is there a way or command that Will tell an animation to skip to a frame within that animation, Eg goto the middle of the animation first then back to the begining.

I hope there is or is there a Dll out there that will do this ?

Thanks

if this equals that then set object frame this etc...

No I'm pretty sure there are no native commands to do that. You could cut your animation up and play the segments in the order you wanted depending on whatever though. Are you trying to do something along the lines of dragon's lair? That way would work for something like that If you needed frame accurate control you might have to turn your .avi's into seperate images and flip through them using code you write yourself.
