Global Animation Marker Names

Postby tachzusamm » Fri Jul 01, 2011 11:12 am

Playing a bit with animations, I missed a list of the marker names belonging to global animations. Because I did not find such a list somewhere, I wrote one by myself, using PlasmaShop / PprShop.

Code: Select all
Global Animation:      Marker Name(s):
==================      ======================================

BallPushWalk         "SndLeftFootDown"   "SndRightFootDown"
BlindsLeverDown         "LeverDown"
BlindsLeverUp         "LeverUp"
BlndFrntLeverDown      "LeverDown"
BlndFrntLeverUp         "LeverUp"
ButtonTouch            "TouchButton"
DoorButtonTouch         "DoorButtonTouch"
FallingLinkOut         "touch"
FishBookLinkOut         "touch"
FloorLeverA            "LeverBack"
FloorLeverAPullHard      "pull"
FloorLeverAPushHard      "push"
FloorLeverAStuck         (no Marker)
FloorLeverAUp         "LeverUp"
GroundImpact         "SndLeftFootDown"
InsertKiHand         "HandIn",         "SndHandIn"
InsertKiHandLonger      "HandIn",         "SndHandIn"
LinkOut               "touch"
PersonalLink         "touch"
Run                  "SndLeftFootDown",   "SndRightFootDown"
RunningImpact         "SndLeftFootDown"
ShooterTrapActivate      "LeverBack"
StepLeft            "SndLeftFootDown",   "SndRightFootDown"
StepOnFloorPlate      "PlateDown"
StepRight            "SndLeftFootDown",   "SndRightFootDown"
SwimFast            "SndLeftFootDown",   "SndRightFootDown"
TouchPellet            "touch"


True, it's a short list, but most of the animations simply do not have markers. Especially the emotes, because the do not need to trigger actions while the emote is running. And the list might not be complete, but at least something to work with when including animations.
I only examined the female animations for markers; I assume they are likely available for male as well.

I think that'd be a nice addition for the wiki :)

Some of them are mentioned here in the wiki.

This is very helpful!

Unfortunately it doesn't list the one I am after:
I'm looking for the merkers for the big floor lever (ClutchLever) used in teledahn.
I've got the animations working, but need the markers to get the correctly timed follow up animations to work.

Anyone knows what these markers are and if not how I could find them myself using plasmashop?

Thanks in advance,
Render

Here you go.

Teledahn ClutchLevers:
Code: Select all
Avatar Animation:      Marker Name(s):
==================      ======================================
ClutchLeverForward      "LeverForward"
ClutchLeverBackward      "LeverBackward"
ClutchLeverGearGrind   "LeverGrind"
ClutchLeverStuck      "LeverStuck"


To find additional animations or markers by yourself:
- Start PlasmaShop 3.0 Beta
- Find the age, e.g. Teledahn
- Find a prp which looks like an animation, like District_FemaleClutchLeverBackward.prp; open it (double-click opens it in PrpShop)
- Find the anim. under [00F1]ATC Anim
- Open it; scroll down to the very end, where you will find a block like
Code: Select all
   <Markers>
      <Marker Name="LeverBackward" Pos="0.5333333611" />
   </Markers>
