Multiple Communications taking too long... need a little help
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.
The cake is a Lie.

 They littered the beach as dense as a crowded Tokyo street during a Final Fantasy release riot. The slow, tottering advance only heightened the suspense of this freakishly ironic scene.

The turtles were revolting,
and nobody could stop them.

First they came for the Jedi,
and I did not speak out.
because I was not a Jedi.
Then they came for the giant robots.
and I did not speak out
because I was not a giant robot.
Then they came for the Nerds,
and I was screwed.

Tolwyn’s reputation for risk taking with other people’s lives was considered  to understate the facts. The admiral’s willingness to sacrifice anyone or anything to achieve his objectives had long been lauded in the popular press. He was “the man who got things done”.- Colonel Blair

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
