LOOP OBJECT Object Number, Start Frame, End Frame
or
PLAY OBJECT Object Number, Start Frame, End Frame


see the "Room Demo" for a template

What I do is:

Animations(1,1) = 0
Load object "standing.x",1
Animations(1,2) = total object frames(1)
Append object "running.x",1,total object frames(1)
Animations(1,3) = total object frames(1)
Append object "jumping.x",1,total object frames(1)
Animations(1,4) = total object frames(1)

etc.

Now you've got a nice array of all the frame positions for your animations.
So to stand:
loop object 1,Animations(1,1),Animations(1,2)
To run:
loop object 1,Animations(1,2),Animations(1,3)
To jump:
play object 1,Animations(1,3),Animations(1,4)

Insiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide!

append object doesnt work does it? it just crashes dbpro for me

This code will work for switching animations, just put it in your main loop and change the code a bit and it will work.

Guys thanx for the answers, and sorry it took me so long to replay, i live in toronto and had no internet conection since thersday(hydro blackout) `till today.

What i want to do is to swich betwen animation that are saved in an .mdl charcter from half life. it has many animations like walk/run/jump/shoot... and evrey animation has it's own separate frames. for example walk anim has 30 frames, shoot has 30, when i use the loop object, or play object commands it plays only the firs animation which is walk.
hope now you can anderstand may problem(Sorry for the bad English, it's not my main language).
