Any experiences with SET_ANIM_RATE?

[HughJanus 243]

I would like to slow down certain animations but cant get this native to work:

SET_ANIM_RATE

Has anyone tinkered with it yet and knows how to use it?

Usually you can specify the speed already when starting the animation. I am not sure what this native actually changes, perhaps just the ped's running anim?

[HughJanus 243]

I thought I could set the animation rate in general with this method (make the NPC move slower or faster).

I am not sure what it changes, but I don't think you can. What are you seeing when yo set it to like 0.1f?

[HughJanus 243]

Nothing changes. I tried to fill it with (ENTITY, 0.1f, 0, 1) and (ENTITY, 0.1f, 0, 0), but maybe I have to insert the hash of an animation (which I dont have)?

It does not look like it takes a hash. Those are few examples from the game scripts:

 

    Line 11070:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_38, 0.75f, 0, false);
    Line 11071:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_39, 0.75f, 0, false);
    Line 11080:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_38, 0.5f, 0, false);
    Line 11081:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_39, 0.5f, 0, false);

 

    Line 1459:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_1284, 1f, 0, false);
    Line 1463:         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_1285, 1f, 0, false);
    Line 17862:                         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_1284, 0f, 0, false);
    Line 17863:                         TASK::SET_ANIM_RATE(iLocal_1285, 0f, 0, false);

Ah, so you can slow down or speed up a certain task, I guess.

Thanks for the insight!

Perhaps it only works for animations played via the task natives? Might be worth a shot.
