 sprite animation that doesnt loop Code: SpriteFile = ContentFile
FilePath = Wolf.rte/Images/HeadB.bmp
FrameCount = 16
SpriteAnimMode = 1 // for animation was 2 not sure what it does yet
SpriteAnimDuration = 10000 // this is animation length in milliseconds Okay so I'm making a character that starts out as a human, then transforms into werewolf form. My only problem is getting the sprite animation to only cycle once. I think SpriteAnimMode controls this- 0 turns off the animation
1 seems to cycle as normal
2 seems to set it to random
3 does nothing So how do I stop the animation? maybe set it up so the sprite gets replaced after say 10 seconds? I'm not sure if this can be done using only ini maybe I need some lua. If this works I will time it so he transforms after exiting the rocket, and will animate the tail growth and hands growing fur. Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated, and if you would like to see my animation DL and check it out in actor viewer.

Re: sprite animation that doesnt loop Perhaps you should do what i do, make a text document and whenever you read something useful to modding, you copy paste it there.
Here is sprite anim modes copied of my notes .txt.
SpriteAnimMode
0 = NOANIM
1 = ALWAYSLOOP
2 = ALWAYSRANDOM
3 = ALWAYSPINGPONG
4 = LOOPWHENMOVING
5 = LOOPWHENOPENCLOSE
6 = PINGPONGOPENCLOSE
Edit: realized this wasn't your problem.

Re: sprite animation that doesnt loop Um if you only want it to go through once then attach this to it. Forgive me if this is dumb and doesn't work. Code: function Create(self)
end
function Update(self)
if self.Frame > 16 then
self.Frame = 16
end
This would simply make it stop and 16 and go no further and jsut stay there at frame 16. Not sure if that's what you want, so... You could set spriteanimmode to 0 and not animate at all and do something to where you could animate the frames as fast as you wanted Code: function Create(self)
self.timer = Timer();
end
function Update(self)
if self.timer:IsPastSimMS(desiredMS for each frame) == true then
self.timer:Reset();
if self.Frame < 16 then
self.Frame = self.Frame + 1
else
self.Frame = 0
end
end
end
Props to Grif for the second code.
