Animation Speed Increase

Recommended Posts

I am not that familiar with kf files or how to simply increase the speed of their animation. Probably don't have good enough software, and can't buy it...

 

I have around 20 animation files I'd like

a. Stop at begining pose so no movement, and

b. Variable speeds each seperate kf file, 2x,3x,4x,5x normal or maybe just up to 3x

 

Can anyone do this for me? Thank you.

Can this be done simply with NISkope changing frequency? IF so I can handle it :D

It all can be done with NifSkope

 

Stop at beginning: I'm not totally sure if this can be (easily) done in NifSkope, but you can try:

  1. Change the stop time (below the frequency you mentioned) to 0
  2. Go to the NiTextKeyExtraData record and look for a text key with string value 'end' and change the time to 0

If this is not sufficient you probably need to remove all NiTransformData records, but then it's probably time to start with Blender (it's free!)

 

Variable speed: There is a nice tutorial in Sephs Hand to Hand Animation Replacer (Battle Constructor) describing just that: it's a combination of frequency and the end text record I've mentioned above.

 

Have fun :thumbsup:

Thank you. Yeah I downloaded nifskope adn saw frequency and thought "No... It can't be taht easy" :D Following example of other animations I was altering these to work with they just set frequency to 0.01 (almost still) So I'll do that.

 

Thank you for responding.

I caution you about that. I don't know why people believe that poses have to be a 2 frame thing. I've always made my poses with simply 1 frame, and with 1 frame end time is equal to start time (0.00).

 

The problem with animations is that frame times have to match (otherwise CTDs are possible), and the original kf has no frame with 0.01 sec, rather a hex value which is close to 0,0333.. sec. And thats a value I have never succeded to enter in NifSkope.

Sorry, I misread your post. I was referring to end time 0. Never thought about frequency 0.01 (you said you wanted your anim to STOP :wink: ). If SloMo is ok for you, then this will work. But dont't forget to set the end text record time according to Seph's tut.

 

Usually bad anims CTD right away. But I had situations (a mod where anims had missing end frame keys) when it took a sequence until freeze or CTD occurred.
