Gun Recoil Animation

[disanti]

Code: Select all

	if(recoil)
	{
		droid.guns[droid.gunID]->setCurrentFrame(1);

		//play gun's recoil animation
		if(droid.guns[droid.gunID]->getFrameNr() >= 19)
		{
			recoil = false;
		}
	}
	else
	{
		droid.guns[droid.gunID]->setCurrentFrame(19);
	}

Why, NO MATTER WHAT, does the animation ALWAYS loop? I'm loading a gun from a X file and it plays its animation endlessly. Even if I set the current frame of the animation. How do I make it stop?

After setting recoil=false set the fram to 19.

The animation is still looping. That made absolutely no difference.

i dont understand in frames much, like setFrameNr..
but have you tried setFrameLoop=false;?
and i think that when the frame is >=19, recoil becomes false but the loop is still true. so maybe thats the problem.

Niko, how do I do this? Pex... your solution gives an error. You cannot tell a function that it is false!

There must be a way to stop the darn animation!!!

You're only setting the frame number, it is going to carry on playing the same sequence (and looping it) until you use setFrameLoop()

Ok, I couldn't get that to work so now I'm using a new method. I'm trying to change the animation of the x file altogether (now it has 2 animations).

How do I do this?

Code:

//load the normal animation
gunanim[0] = gProc.smgr->getMesh(".\\data\\gun1\\gun1.x");
if(gunanim[0])
{
guns[0] = gProc.smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(gunanim[0],cam,-1);
guns[0]->setVisible(false);
}

Error:
d:\pss4086new\source\player.cpp(6) : error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'class irr::scene::IAnimatedMesh *' to 'class irr::scene::IAnimatedMeshX *'
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast

Have I done something wrong?

it seems you are sending a certain class type to the function in a param that wants a different class. you cold either change the class type or typecast your code.. example..

(im assuming that gunanim[0] is the pointer to the class)

Code: Select all

guns[0] = gProc.smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode((irr::scene::IAnimatedMeshX *)gunanim[0],cam,-1); 
guns[0]->setVisible(false);

that should work.. or when you made the variable make it

Code: Select all

irr::scene::IAnimatedMeshX *gunanim[];

i believe you need to use the X at the end because it is a different class to handle .x files. please correct me if im wrong.
