Timers on animations

[tsukasa1615]

Can anyone point me in the right direction where i can learn how to increase duration/timers in animations? Kinda like the one in skyrim sex lab where you can increase duration of each stage of the animation?

You can increase the default duration in the ini file.

you can also increase loops in animationGroupData to have a stage to play more times before advancing or you can multiply the frames value in animationData, but increasing loops is the best choice. This wont adjust the overall time tho, will just adjust how long a staged sequence will play until the last stage. If you really want AAF Scenes to last longer, you can do as dagoba said or set things up with the AAF mod you are using (Like AAF Violate).

Thank you! Correct me if i'm wrong, if i am understanding this correctly when u say default duration in the ini file is it the overall animation? Like say there are three parts in a single animation it loops all three instead of per stage? I was hoping of increasing loops or duration per stage like no loop for foreplay, multiple loops or increased duration for the main animations and just one loop for the end for example. Kinda like a movie i guess. So that would make editing the animationdata or animationgroupdata the right one if im making certain stages last longer?

 

Second question, how do i make a grouped/staged animation data? Do i just need to make an animationgroupdata.xml? What's is the format or outline for making one? I took a peek in the animationgroupdata should i just follow the format if i want to make custom grouped/staged animations?

Yes. If you want to tailor the duration of specific stages of an animationGroup you would need to do that in animationGroup XML.

 

The format outline for all XML types are in the AAF wiki. That is probably a better reference since looking at existing mods may result in you copying deprecated or wrong structures.
