Title: Multiple Communications taking too long... need a little help
Post by: FlashFire on January 11, 2008, 11:07:00 pm
Hey everyone.

Well... you've never failed to answer my questions before, so let me give this another go. Now...I have no problems using the send-message-list SEXP, and no problem getting the messages to come in at the right pace. But whenever I tie an ANI to a message, the SEXP is waiting for the animation to finish before continuing with the next one in the list. Is there any way to get the next message in the list to send without waiting for the previous ANI to finish?

Use shorter ANI's?

Must be really short messages you're sending if you're using the ANI's already in FS and not customs.

Well, I don't really have an answer to your question  but I do have a related one for the team.  You guys should try to get the Kat comms from Prophecy onto Saga. It'd be cool to hear the Kitties actually  have something positive to say(perhaps after failing an objective or they get a kill.) I know there's a site linked on the CIC with lots of comm files, but I'd have know idea WTF to do with it.

I think it's reasonable to assume since I'm posting on the Wing Commander Saga forums that I'm using the custom ANIs for that MOD.  :P

Worked like a charm, Tolwyn. Always used to wonder what was up with "bump.wav"

Oh... oops.

Got here from "Unread Replies", and I guess I wasn't paying attention to the subforum.  :p
