gday all.

Well i've been able to get my anims made in imported into sl. Ive set up the normal poseball thing and it works fine with one animation.

Question is, how do i get multiple anims in an oject to work and get one of those menus up to use a different anim on the same object when clicked. Im unsure if this is a scripting question or anim question, apologies if its in the wrong thread.

Hi Teake,

You'll want to use a menu animation system. There are several out there including a couple open source versions. One is the MLPv2.1 which is an updated version of the original MLP.

You can see a forum post about it here:
/54/42/268919/1.html

and here:
/54/2a/240761/1.html

You can also find it on SLX here for only 1L:

Also, I have a poseball script that allows the user to cycle through a set of animations using shift-arrow keys. Let me know if you'd like a copy. Free but unsupported.

Yeah this is more of a scripting question. You can informatioin on scripting here:

http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL_Portal

The blue menu that pops up, like on a MLP furniture, is called a dialog menu.

http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlDialog

There are commands to make you animate and stop animating.

I guess the best way to learn is to get examples and try to figure them out.
