I am about half way through making my first short campaign, however all my command briefings have only got the Fs2 animation is there anywhere where I can get more B5 oriented command ani's and if so can some one print up a list of file names {like some one did on another post for the capcomm ani's}. This would be a great help and make my campaign look less bodged when it comes out.

I haven't got a list but if you get hold of Descent  Manager Freespace Kit You can open up the TBP .vp file and take a look at all the CBAni files yourself.

[Fury]

One day one of the staff (prolly me) should write down a list of anims and a short description and put it to the readme...

[ramsboy]

yeah that would be good. still in the meantime will try and figure out how this descent manager freespace kit works cheers for the info karajorma

I was also looking for a list here, but didn't find one. Well, I had nothing to do, so I made it myself:

arrivestar.ani   
jumpgate forms, a skylark enters normal space. Camera makes 180° pitch turn when the ship flies over its position and shows that the skylark flies towards an asteroid field in front of the dark side of a planet (which doesn’t make sense because we see a red sun near the jumpgate).

That might have been one of the most useful firstish posts

Almost forgot the very helpful "commlost.ani", basically a snowy screen, but great for all races not covered by videos (like the Brakiri or other league worlds).

[Primus]

I would go with logo_stellarcom.ani - Stellarcom for all races that don't have specific anis and use the commlost for scrambled transmission, etc.
