Error: "Can't play animation FF_Fire."

[DerBK]

Hi there.

 

For my mod i am adding various skills to enemy variants and there is one problem that i frequently run into that i wasn't able to solve yet.

 

Example:

I gave a Pistol and the Skill Faceoff to an Advent Trooper.

But when the Trooper tries to use Faceoff, the debugger shows me a redscreen with the line

 

UXcomAnimTreeController::PlayFullBodyDynamicAnim - Can't play animation FF_Fire

 

and the animation bugs out. I get the same error when i try to give the trooper Lightning Hands.

 

 

At first i thought that Troopers just aren't rigged to use pistols, but that's not it - Pistol Overwatch and Return Fire work flawlessly (and look amazing, btw).

 

 

So what exactly is the problem here?

FWIW, i figured it out. I needed to add the skills to the weapon template instead of directly to the character template.
