Can WE read custom animation names?

[Sunchips]

I will need the animation tags such as Gold, Lumber, Channel etc for my model I am working on but I also need to add spesific animations for other things and I wonder, can I make an animation called like "Cinematic001" in my model? I have seen one model before that had more than hundred animations and the most ones were named something like that.

How will this work?

AFAIK no.

But you could try.

Well, it won't play ingame like other animations. Though, if you play it via triggers then it might work, but I'm not shure.

Why dont you just rename the animations?

 

[Arisaitou]

depends

i'm an animator , i tried triggering "reload gun" animation and its a success!

Simple move away from the names and use:

call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(unit u, index i)

By using this the animation can be accessed over their index. The first animation in the modelfile will become animation 0 and than counting up. Just like an array.

sooooooo "Play Hero's 99999999999999-animation" would work you say?

call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(yourUnit,99999999999999)

Yes that should work.
