Animations stuff

[WiBox]

local customBlockName = "parkour"
local parkourIFP = engineLoadIFP( "parkourFiles/parkour.ifp", customBlockName )

function setanimation( _, animationName )
    if ( parkourIFP ) then
        setPedAnimation( localPlayer, customBlockName, animationName )
    end
end
addCommandHandler( "animation", setanimation )

I was testing the parkour.ifp, the file is from https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/EngineReplaceAnimation , anyway I downloaded that parkour.ifp file and I add it..... but the problem is while I'm using example

/animation HandPlant

I don't see him doing the animation, I see his body moving nothing else.. Can anyone help me?

Did the parkour.ifp file located in the file called parkourFiles inside the resource ?

[WiBox]

It's in a folder.. folder name is parkourFiles

It work fine but the thing is if you do the animation, only you can see yourself making that animation... Another player will see you moving not animating

[MrKAREEM]

all thing are true this problem i had it from some days

i think it was that u can see u self makin the anim and other cant see

am right ?

if that the problem i can help u reply only .

[WiBox]

Well yeah, that's the problem

[Fist]

You need to use setPedAnimation on server side not on client, that's why only you see doing it.

[Z4Zy]

If you want to synchronize custom animations, check IFP_demo

[MrKAREEM]

try this

This Was an Example

 

-- server --

addCommandHandler ( "animation" , 
function ( player )
triggerClientEvent (  "SetAnimForAll" ,player )
end
)

-- client --

addEvent('SetAnimForAll',true)
addEventHandler('SetAnimForAll',root,
function()
local customBlockName = "myNewBlock"
local IFP = engineLoadIFP( "parkour.ifp", customBlockName )
engineReplaceAnimation( source, "ped", "weapon_crouch", customBlockName, "HandPlant" )
setPedAnimation( source, customBlockName, "HandPlant" )
end)

Thank you all, now I understand, you mean the setPedAnimation should be at Server Side, because if it was on Client Side only the player will see it. Thanks again

setPedAnimation( source, customBlockName, "HandPlant" )
end)

 

I tried to do it like this, well the animation worked, but couldn't see my friend making the animation... I understand that the function should be added at server side so all can see it but I'm still trying to find a way to make that work... if someone have a solution please share it with us. ( Us because that won't just help me, it will help too many other developers. )

-- server --

addCommandHandler ( "animation" , 
function ( player )
triggerClientEvent (  root, "SetAnimForAll" ,player ) --sent to root element
end
)

try this server code with your existing client code.

[WiBox]

Alright, thanks

[Z4Zy]

did it worked ? 

[WiBox]

hm trying XD

Nope, didn't work, as always the body move but others can't see the animation, only I can

[Z4Zy]

If that doesn't work 

-- server --

addCommandHandler ( "animation" , 
function ( player )
triggerClientEvent (  "SetAnimForAll", resourceRoot, player )
end
)

-- client --

addEvent('SetAnimForAll',true)
addEventHandler('SetAnimForAll',root,
function(player)
local customBlockName = "myNewBlock"
local IFP = engineLoadIFP( "parkour.ifp", customBlockName )
engineReplaceAnimation( source, "ped", "weapon_crouch", customBlockName, "HandPlant" )
setPedAnimation( player, customBlockName, "HandPlant" )
end)

[WiBox]

I need to ask, about triggerClientEvent  which root should I use which represent server?

Nope, also didn't work XD
