Animations all mucked up

[Bluelikeu]

ok, for some reason all of the animation add-ons i create cause every single other animation in the game to be warped. When i delete the add-on everything goes back to normal. My config looks like this, if that might be the problem

Code: [Select]

// some basic defines
#define TEast 0
#define TWest 1
#define TGuerrila 2
#define TCivilian 3
#define TSideUnknown 4
#define TEnemy 5
#define TFriendly 6
#define TLogic 7

#define true 1
#define false 0

// type scope
#define private 0
#define protected 1
#define public 2

class CfgPatches
{
   class kneelfire2bluelikeu
   {
      units[] = {};
      weapons[] = {};
      requiredVersion = 1.46;
   };

};


class CfgMovesMC
{


   class Default {};
   class StandBase: Default {};
   class States
   {      
      class kneelfire2bluelikeu: StandBase
      {
         actions = StandSaluteActions;
         file = "\kneelfirebluelikeu\kneelfire2bluelikeu.rtm";
         speed = -1.0
         looped = true;
         soundEnabled = false;
         connectFrom[]={Stand,1};
         interpolationSpeed=0.1;
         interpolateTo[]={kneelfire2bluelikeu,0.1,kneelfire2bluelikeu,0.1};
      };   
   };
};


I've also got the add-on if anyone wants to see what it causes for themselves

btw, i took this code directly from the tutorial suggested to me in the recruitment forums and modified only the name of the addon.

ok, i figured it out myself..

I have defined very few animation config, but never saw this problem breaking the other existing animations.

How did you fixed it ? this should be helpfull if someone run into this strange problem and have no idea what can be the responsible of it.

[Bluelikeu]

oh ya, sorry about that, forget that sometimes.

When creating the animation, i had moved the component labeled "abdomen". Apparently, when every time i created a new animation file, i was moving the abdomen with the rest of the body, eg: when i rotated my person and stuff. So, I just left the abomen out of the animation completely, seems to work fine now.

I have defined very few animation config, but never saw this problem breaking the other existing animations.

Just as a side note, I once ran into the problem where my new animation would play whenever I tried to go from crouching to standing. I believe the problem was that I had both

connectFrom[]
  and
connectTo[]

Properties defined (connect from crouching, connect to standing). I don't know the full story yet, but be aware that the problem can occur.

Thanks for the precisions,
It should really help people making animations and configs files  if they end with such problem.
