Current frame

Hello

Is it possible to get the current frame of an animation?

Thanks

not that i know of...use #animtime...as a rough guess

Animtime#() will do what you require.

it doesnt return the frame just a float on time passed on the anim

ive tried this before.. a return keyframe command would be most excellent

You're quite wrong. It returns the frame number if the animspeed = 1. If the animspeed is less than 1 then it returns a fractional part but it is still based on the last animation frame drawn, i.e., Animate Model,1,0.1, dumping AnimTime() results to debuglog would show 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and so on.

In short - its based on animation frames, not time. And yeah I know, AnimTime was perhaps not the best name for this function.

Ok SetAnimTime Works Like this..

Anim#=Anim#+1.0
SetAnimTime Entity,Anim#,0
If Anim#>AnimTime(Entity) Then Anim#=1

This Will Loop Through The Frames Of your Animation.

If You Increment Anim# by Let's Say .5 Blitz will Interpolate another Frame Between Each Frame you have created.

Make any Sense?

This Assumes Anim Speed=1
