Play random idle animations?

[Phnx]

I need help!

 

How about a script that runs on game start and makes your character randomly pick one of various idle animations when your character isn't moving/standing around? :)

 

So far I have a quest that starts when the game starts and attached to it this script. Also, everything is dependent on the "FNIS" mod so I can use completely new animations.

 

Scriptname PlayRandomIdle extends Quest  

Idle Property MyFNISspellc1  Auto  

Idle Property MyFNISspellc2  Auto  

Event OnGameStart (actor akactor, actor player)

If (player.isrunning() == 0 || player.getsitstate() == 0 || player.issneaking() == 0 || player.isincombat() == 0 || player.isWeaponDrawn() == 0 || Game.Getplayer().playidle(MyFNISspellc2) == 1)

Utility.Wait(5)

Game.Getplayer().playidle(MyFNISspellc1)

EndIf

If (player.isrunning() == 0 || player.getsitstate() == 0 || player.issneaking() == 0 || player.isincombat() == 0 || player.isWeaponDrawn() == 0 || Game.Getplayer().playidle(MyFNISspellc1) == 1)

Utility.Wait(5)

Game.Getplayer().playidle(MyFNISspellc2)

EndIf

EndEvent

 

Doesn't work yet. Any hints, suggestions?

The "Game.Getplayer().playidle(MyFNISspellc2) == 1" as part of the if statement is probably not what you want to do. It's not a query which Idle is currently running, but it will start a new idle and check for success.

 

But the FNIs idles are not well suited for PC "base" idles. Because of the way they are added to the behavior files, they are not integrated at all into the overall animation sequence. They are "loose" idles only. To make random "base" idles work, you probably would need to implement that into the behavior files.
