Hi all,

Im working on badminton project(still struggling) , after fixing collision problem im still in trouble in controlling 3d animation. Help me to draw out a good control structure and help me to set out on how to determine the end of animation before its proceed to next one. Currently my structure is like this

Do

playerinput()

Loop

function playerinput()

if getkeypress()=1

Animation=1

endif

Animate()

endfunction

function Animate()

if Animation=1

if getobjectisplaying=0

Playobjectanimation

endif

endif

endfunction

As you can see here, the getobjectisplaying is use to start object animation, and if have no idea on how to determine the end of Animation=1 since i one it to finish the animation uninterrupt before going to another state.

Can somebody help me?

i found it!!! forget i ask. Thanks all.

EDIT: in case someone search for the answer, the get the end of the an animation is using getobjectisanimating(that i know) and to get specific "frame" to better manipulate the animation, let say the frame that my character punch the hardest is by using getobjectanimationtime. Actually it return "frame", but "time" make me overlooked this command.

Thanks for posting the answer. I was wondering this too and am about to implement 3D animations. Do you use bone animations or are these vertex animations?

@phemox, im using bone animation

@smallg, thanks, i already restructure like your suggestion,thanks. My biggest problem is on how to control an animation that i only run once, let say jump.

Animation mode like 1-loop 0-run once made me confuse, if we wrote playobjectanimation on main loop, it will repeat regardless of the mode. So getcurrentanimationtime(which is actually frame) can save the day. But again, i believe there a better control that i dont know..

Yeah, it seems that putting it directly in the main loop will always restart it, loop it and even make it run at weird speeds.

From the paid Tutorial guide vol 2 I know you should be able to use select and cases to get proper animation going, but all of those do actively check whether or not an animation should start.
