I have a problem porting a BG II unsplit animation with Infinity Animations.

 

I tested it using the MMEL slot in a vanilla intall of ToB (+ official Bioware Patch) and it worked fine.

 

But when I ported it to I.A. (code µKB), the engine doesn't make any difference between the Sleep and the Die actions : the Die one is always played instead of the Sleep one.

 

And that's a big problem because I used that format for the only reason that it shares those two actions (+ Get Up) while others use the same action for Sleep and Die (Get Up = Die reversed)..

 

If anybody could explain me what is wrong...

I rename this topic because it was not "a problem", but A BUG !

 

I tried all the BG2 unsplit ext animations introduced by I.A. and the same bug occured : the engine does not make any differences between the Sleep and the Die actions, even if they are different in their ___G1.bam files.

 

So it seems the problem comes from the Core component of I.A.

No news, bad news...

 

It seems I must get rid of about ten new animations if I can't port them....

 

That(s the hard way if modding : spending days to create new stuffs that can't be shared...

Sorry! But don't get discourage--your efforts are well appreciated.

Quite hard not to be disappointed after spending 2 months to create a Sleep animation with Blender and not being able to use it !

 

 

btw, I will focus on the last animations I will port from Diablo II in my mod... They are much more easy to deal with...

 

 

Thanks for your support...

I have never noticed this - the BG2 unsplit format is the standard we use for porting animations, so I'd assume someone would've noticed it - certainly Erephine. I suggest you PM her since she handled the .exe patch and I have no visibility of it. It could be she updated this in the latest version but I did not see it in any notes she provided.

Already done (13.01.11) !

 

But no answer...

 

I even tried to create a sleeping horse cre.file : it spawns on the map using  the TW animation, not the SL one !

 

I also wrote a script to cast a customized "Sleep" spell (no save and no MR) on the Frost Giants, my horses.... : the animation played is Die, not Sleep !

 

And I really don't understand why it works using the MMEL.slot...

 

I am getting insane...

 

You shoud try to Ctrl-Q a Frost Giant and test it...

Maybe someone else can test it in the meantime - I don't have IA installed at the moment and have too much going on right now to get to it right away. I hope Erephine decides to put in an appearance soon.

I would really appreciate that someone might confirm (or not) that point !

 

Otherwise I will be obliged to get rid of my sleeping animations...

 

And it really sucks...
