qc. animation events

spyshadow117 · 05-07-2012, 11:38 PM

I have made a camera in google sketchup. I then imported it into 3D Max and animated it into a looped animation to where the security camera is rotating. Now sense I am not no good at C++ coding or anything, this is the closest way I can get what needs to be accomplish.

So I got the camera looped and moving in game. The problem is now setting up animation events. Example...

Camera is looking left - Trigger logic_relay - left
camera is looking right - trigger logic_relay - right

the logic relays are linked to 2 trigger brush's. If player is standing in any of these box's at the time the camera looks, an alarm goes off.

I this need help on setting up the animation events in the QC.
An example would help me understand how to set it up and how it links to entities in the map.

if anyone has any ideas on how to work around this, let me know.

Check out this:
Compiling a model
See this line

Code:

$sequence idle	"myfirstmodel-ref.smd"

. Your animation should just be the idle.

I know how to compile out a complete model. Let me re-ask this. Is there any ways for me to trigger a logic relay from the model at a certain frame in the animation?

If so how?

If not, then how would I make the security camera prop dynamic fire a trigger to a logic relay when it turns right or left?
