List of available animation sequences (for a player)

by Mathieu · in Torque Game Engine · 03/07/2007 (3:03 pm) · 3 replies

I would like to get the list of available animation sequences from a script function (I want to populate a GuiPopUpMenuCtrl with them, like the one in Torque Show Tool Pro).
Is there a script function doing something like this?

Little Bump! (sorry)

Not directly, as far as I am aware, but you could look at the TSShapeConstructor that's appropriate for the model and dump out the sequence[x] dataset, then filter it.

Just a quick guess, honestly.

Thanks Stephen!

I manage to get what I need with this two new console methods in shapebase.cc:
//MF
ConsoleMethod( ShapeBase, getSequencesCount, S32, 2, 2, "Get the number of sequences for this player")
{
   return object->getShape()->sequences.size();
}

ConsoleMethod( ShapeBase, getSequenceName, const char*, 3, 3, "(S32 SequenceNumber)")
{
   S32 i = dAtoi(argv[2]);

   return object->getShape()->getName(object->getShape()->sequences[i].nameIndex);
}
