Load multiple animation to one slot?

windastella | 2014-03-08 04:51

Is it possible to load multiple animation into one animation slot in model.cfg? If it is how can we use it?
Maybe i'm asking question that i also didn't understand even a bit. But maybe like this...

iqmanim 'attack 1' attack.iqm //1
iqmanim 'attack 1' attack2.iqm //2

It didn't make sense to me also but i heard it is possible to load two animation into a slot... If it is possible to do this and how can we use it? possibility: use two different melee animation which change every time player attack.

If you mean to load several animations to 1 mesh at once, then no (you can't make legs jump and strafe at the same time. It's either jump or strafe).
However, you can load several animations over different meshes, as all meshes have their own animation (you can run and shoot at the same time as running applies on the legs only while shooting applies on the torso of the model).
There is a tiny "but" on this; you can choose priorities between animations, like swimming has a lesser priority than strafing to the right (as like being on the bottom of a pool) for most models. This is kind of tricky though.

nope that not what i mean actually. Maybe i'm asking question that i also didn't understand even a bit. But maybe like this...

iqmanim 'attack 1' attack.iqm //1
iqmanim 'attack 1' attack2.iqm //2

That should be possible, but is quite uninvestigated. As far as I know, only the death and dead animations had such option. I'm pretty sure it has been changed since a couple of years (back to the day there weren't any ragdolls within Cube Engine 2; so on 2008_06_17_ctf_edition). There is no reason to exist this day. So just dig in the source code to see what you can find and report about it on this node. I wish you good luck.

So digging from past documentation and source or current is my best choice... I can't believe it exist actually. Thanks Suicizer
