Hi you all,
i am looking for a prim animation script. i know stuff like puppeter or animaker. isnt there a opensource script somewhere out there. it must not be one with a hud or recording function, only a script where i can fill in the coordinates of each child prim moving per frame. i know the bvh importer but id rather have a script to use inworld. i want to see how this kind of script is done. i hope somebody is so kind to help me....
thank you so much for your help

well....

you could do what i did, which is make a really really REALLY easy cheap script that spits out an objects global and local rotation on touch. you could dress it up by formatting that information into an llSetPrimParameters (or is that SetPrimitiveParams? why they only half abbreviate it, i'll never know... :X ).

then you just copy from your chat history, and paste into your animating script. move, touch, copy, paste.


just one MAJOR important thing you MUST know about doing this: setting rotations on child prims is BUGGY. please see this thread on how to script the workaround:
