How to play multiple animations back to back?

[trepleen]

How do I get these animations or any other animations to play back to back? 

 

    anims[0] = SexLab.GetAnimationByName("Arrok Tricycle")
    anims[1] = SexLab.GetAnimationByName("Arrok Lesbian")

 

This guide shows how to get another animation to play on an existing animations end, however forceanimation doesn't seem to be working anymore.

Here is a sample of my code, mind you it's being worked on.

 

 

Scriptname KD_KatreenaDarkmoore_QuestDialogue extends Quest

SexLabFramework property SexLab auto
Actor property KD_KatreenaDarkmoore auto
ImageSpaceModifier Property KD_Fade_ISM auto

int property endingStage auto
Form[] removedArmor

function Stage30_SexScene()

;Main sex control object
sslThreadModel AnimationObject = SexLab.NewThread()

;add actors you want to be a part of this sex scene
AnimationObject.AddActor(KD_KatreenaDarkmoore, isVictim = false)
AnimationObject.AddActor(Game.GetPlayer(), isVictim = false)

;array that holds animations
sslBaseAnimation[] anims
anims = new sslBaseAnimation[1]

;specify animation we want to use
;2 foreplay 3 cunn katreena,player
anims[0] = SexLab.GetAnimationByName("Arrok Tricycle")
;1 foreplay 2 cunn, 3mutualcunn,4mutualcunn katreena, player
;anims[0] = SexLab.GetAnimationByName("Arrok Lesbian")

;stops any type of foreplay animation before playing teh ones specified
;AnimationObject.DisableLeadIn(true)

;attach the animation you specified from the array to the main sex control object
AnimationObject.SetAnimations(anims)

;Don't try to auto center on a nearby bed
AnimationObject.SetBedding(-1)

;this makes it so event Start30_SexSceneEnd gets called when each stage reaches its end
RegisterForModEvent("StageStart_Stage30SexScene", "Start30_SexScene_StageStart")

;What stage do you want arrok anal to begin from? I set it to 1, but you can set it to 2,3 etc
AnimationObject.Stage = 3
endingStage = 3

;Sets the animation in motion

;debug.messagebox(controller.stage + " started")

;if we're on stage 1, do an extra slow fade in for mysterious effect
if controller.stage == 1
;Begin a slow fade out
;;;Game.FadeOutGame(false, true, 12.0, 12.0)
;get the fade out time to do its thing
;;;Utility.Wait(6)
;remove the image space modifier, this object is responsible for making the screen go black
;;;KD_Fade_ISM.Remove()
else
;since we're on any other stage after 2, just do quick fade outs so user doesn't have to see immersion breaking animation transition
;Begin a fade out
;;;Game.FadeOutGame(false, true, 4.0, 4.0)

endif

;start sex talk scene
;KD_SexTalk_Stage30.Start()

;cleanup I think
;UnregisterForModEvent("StageStart_Stage30SexScene")

;debug.messagebox(controller.stage + " ended")

;scene is finished, fade out
;;;KD_Fade_ISM.Apply()

;are we on stage 2 or greater?
if controller.stage >= endingStage
;end animation and return everything back to normal
;this is optional

After a lot of searching via google I found this thread that might help me figure this out:

 

http://www.loverslab.com/topic/34304-help-with-very-simple-sexlab-mod-please/

 

I think I need to use setforcedanimations & setanimation... I'm too tired now... Hopefully someone will respond by tomorrow.

 

This is the last thing I need to learn how to do to give my mod full functionality so I can just focus on creating content.

If by back to back you mean play through a single animation all the way to the end, followed by starting another animation from the start; there is multiple ways to do this.

 

• If there is only 2 animations you want to sequence together, during setup of the scene use sslThreadModel.SetLeadInAnimations() to set the first animation, and sslThreadModel.SetAnimations() to set the second animation, passing both functions an array of animations containing only your chosen animation.
  • LeadIn animations natively play before another round of animations, in the MCM these are called Foreplay stage, but they can be used for other purposes such as this as well - however they will be subject to the different timers and strip settings of the foreplay stage, if this is a deal breaker try a different solution, if not this is the simplest and easiest solution.
• Set a hook for OrgasmStart, in the hook check if it's the animations last stage via Controller.Stage >= Controller.Animation.StageCount, if true, than call this sequence of commands: SetStage(1), SetForcedAnimations(secondAnimationArray), SetAnimation(0), RealignActors()
  • This will switch the scenes animation list over to the second animation's first stage as soon as the final stage of the first animation starts. 
• Final solution: If you are only every going to be using the exact same 2 animations back to back, create a temporary animation object that combines the stages of both animations and just use that in the scene.

I didn't know we could do this, this is perfect. I can just put together stage pieces from different animations to get exactly what I need   .. I'll post my final code here so someone else can use it in the future.

 

For reference I'm using this thread to get this code made:

Hi, two more questions if that's okay.

 

1. Is it possible to get a reference to the actors in a sex scene from the controller?

 

2. Is it normal for the last stagestart,stageend to not fire on the last stage of a custom animation sequence?

 

By custom animation sequence, I refer to the following way of making a new animation:

 

    sslBaseAnimation Anim = SexLab.NewAnimationObject("CunnilingusOnlyObject", self)

 

If I add two stages, then the second stages StageStart,StageEnd doesn't fire.

 

I AM STUCK.

 

I cannot get stagestart, stageend, orgasmstart or orgasmend to trigger on the last stage.

 

Here is my code.  I'm soooo close to finishing.

 

 

Scriptname KD_KatreenaDarkmoore_QuestDialogue extends Quest  

SexLabFramework property SexLab auto

function Sex_Cunnilingus(actor Receiver, actor Giver)

    ;Main sex control object
    sslThreadModel AnimationObject = SexLab.NewThread()

    ;add actors you want to be a part of this sex scene
    AnimationObject.AddActor(Receiver, isVictim = false)
    AnimationObject.AddActor(Giver, isVictim = false)

    ;array that holds animations
    sslBaseAnimation[] anims = new sslBaseAnimation[1]

    ;delete it if we already made it
    Sexlab.ReleaseAnimationObject("CunnilingusOnlyObject")

    ;create a new animation stage sequence from scratch
    sslBaseAnimation Anim = SexLab.NewAnimationObject("CunnilingusOnlyObject", self)

    ;give new animation stage sequence a name
    Anim.Name = "Cunnilingus Only"

    ;what type of content is this? 1 for sexual   2 for foreplay
    Anim.SetContent(1)

    ;lets add stages from other animations
    ;0 for male, 1 for female
    int a1 = Anim.AddPosition(1)

    ;grabbing animation 1 from arrok lesbian animation 1, stage 2 and then setting the position to 0
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a1, "Arrok_Lesbian_A2_S1", -100, silent = false)
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a1, "Arrok_Lesbian_A1_S2", 0, silent = false)
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a1, "Arrok_Tricycle_A1_S3", 0, silent = false)

    ;0 for male, 1 for female
    int a2 = Anim.AddPosition(0)

    ;grabbing animation 2 from arrok lesbian animation 2, stage 2 and then setting the position to -100, since busy with mouth make silent, keep mouth open since giving
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a2, "Arrok_Lesbian_A1_S1", 0, silent = true, openMouth = false)
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a2, "Arrok_Lesbian_A2_S2", -100, silent = true, openMouth = true)
    Anim.AddPositionStage(a2, "Arrok_Tricycle_A2_S3", -100.5, silent = true, openMouth = true)

    ;this is a sexual animation so I added the tag sexual
    Anim.AddTag("Sexual")

    ;save our new customized stage sequence
    Anim.Save()

    ;specify animation we want to use
    ;set the animation array to use the custom animation sequence we created
    anims[0] = Anim

    ;attach the animation you specified from the array to the main sex control object
    AnimationObject.SetAnimations(anims)

    ;Don't try to auto center on a nearby bed

    ;We call this scene  Sex_Cunnilingus which will hook it to the registerformodevent above this line, this is important, make sure names match
    AnimationObject.SetHook("Sex_Cunnilingus")

    ;no pre forplay animations since they don't match the scene at all
    AnimationObject.DisableLeadIn(True)

    ;Sets the animation in motion
    sslThreadController Thread = AnimationObject.StartThread()
