Forward.dsq

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with Torque playing the player_forward.dsq within the game itself. I am using Lightwave, and the DTS exporter by www.gnometech.com

I have a root, forward, back, dieback, and
die1 that have all sucessfully exported, according to the Exporter. I can even load in SHOW and see all of them working just fine, including the FORWARD.dsq - In my player select screen it shows my player running with a gun, but once within the game.....the only animation not working is the froward.dsq(sequence1 anim).
I have been re-exporting and nothing so far.

I know the animation works, just no clue why
the sequence isn't playing within torque.

All of the character models from the demo(orc) works fine
with the code I have.

Have fun,

Make sure the player.cs file only contains a reference to those anims that actually exist in the dts file might help. When creating new animaitons you just add the references as you go along.

Just a total shot in the dark, but I just had a very similar problem so I thought I'd voice it. What it turned out to be was the player.cs file was tying forward.dsq to the name 'run' and not 'forward'. So I went back into my model and changed _sequence::forward to _sequence::run and it works great now. I'm sure changing the script instead would have worked too.
