[SOLVED] Animation help...

[ReturnZero]

Well, my problem is, is that only one frame of my animation frame is rendered.

My code looks like this

Code: Select all

main loop()
{
    if (receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_W) || receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_A) ||  receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_S) || receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_D))
	{
		 visualNode->setAnimationSpeed(40);
		 visualNode->setFrameLoop(2,14);
	}
	else //idle animation.
	{
		visualNode->setAnimationSpeed(40);
		 visualNode->setFrameLoop(292,360);
	}
}

If this helps... my event receiver looks like this:

Code: Select all

class MyEventReceiver: public IEventReceiver
{
public:

    virtual bool OnEvent(const SEvent& event)
    {
        if (event.EventType == EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVENT)
        {
            cursor.X = event.MouseInput.X;
            cursor.Y = event.MouseInput.Y;
        }
		 

        if(event.MouseInput.Event == EMIE_MOUSE_WHEEL)
        {
            cameraDistance += -event.MouseInput.Wheel* (cameraDistance / 20) * 3;
            if(cameraDistance < 10) cameraDistance = 10;
        }

        if(event.EventType == EET_KEY_INPUT_EVENT)
        {
             KeyIsDown[event.KeyInput.Key] = event.KeyInput.PressedDown;
        }
 
        return false;
    }

			virtual bool IsKeyDown(EKEY_CODE keyCode) const
        {
                 return KeyIsDown[keyCode];

        }

		MyEventReceiver()
        {
                for (u32 i=0; i<KEY_KEY_CODES_COUNT; ++i)
                        KeyIsDown[i] = false;
        }



			

			private:
				 bool KeyIsDown[KEY_KEY_CODES_COUNT];

 
};

As I said before, Only one frame of my animation is played, instead of the ones I wanted to play ,, (2,14) ..etc

Hope you can help

You need to call it only once, because this way the animation starts every frame and only the first frame is shown. You should check if a key has been pressed the last step or sth similar. Use some variables like "currentAnimation" and "willingAnimation" and if( currentAnimation!=willingAnimation ) then set your loop etc.

You can use sth like (this is very lame way doing this):

Code: Select all

// before the main loop
int willingAnim = 0;
int currentAnim = 0;

// inside your main loop

if (receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_W) || receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_A) ||  receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_S) || receiver.IsKeyDown(irr::KEY_KEY_D))
   {
        willingAnim = 2;
   }
   else 
   {
        willingAnim = 1;
   } 



if(willingAnim!=currentAnim)
{ 
currentAnim = willingAnim;
 if(currentAnim == 1)
    {  
       visualNode->setAnimationSpeed(40);
       visualNode->setFrameLoop(292,360);
    }
 if(currentAnim == 2)
    {
       visualNode->setAnimationSpeed(40);
       visualNode->setFrameLoop(2,14);
    }
}

Didn`t tried it, but it should be working.
