Fields

Animation

The animations code identifier that we want to play

[JsonProperty]
public string Animation

Field Value

string

AnimationSound

[JsonProperty]
public AnimationSound AnimationSound

Field Value

AnimationSound

AnimationSpeed

The speed this animation should play at.

[JsonProperty]
public float AnimationSpeed

Field Value

float

Attributes

Custom attributes that can be used for the animation. Valid vanilla attributes are:

• damageAtFrame (float)
  
• soundAtFrame (float)
  
• authorative (bool)
  

[JsonProperty]
[JsonConverter(typeof(JsonAttributesConverter))]
public JsonObject Attributes

Field Value

JsonObject

BlendMode

The animation blend mode. Controls how this animation will react with other concurrent animations. Also see ElementBlendMode to control blend mode per element.

[JsonProperty]
public EnumAnimationBlendMode BlendMode

Field Value

EnumAnimationBlendMode

ClientSide

If true, the server does not sync this animation.

[JsonProperty]
public bool ClientSide

Field Value

bool

Code

Unique identifier to be able to reference this AnimationMetaData instance

[JsonProperty]
public string Code

Field Value

string

CodeCrc32

public uint CodeCrc32

Field Value

uint

EaseInSpeed

A multiplier applied to the weight value to "ease in" the animation. Choose a high value for looping animations or it will be glitchy

[JsonProperty]
public float EaseInSpeed

Field Value

float

EaseOutSpeed

A multiplier applied to the weight value to "ease out" the animation. Choose a high value for looping animations or it will be glitchy

[JsonProperty]
public float EaseOutSpeed

Field Value

float

ElementBlendMode

A way of specifying BlendMode per element.

[JsonProperty]
public Dictionary<string, EnumAnimationBlendMode> ElementBlendMode

Field Value

Dictionary<string, EnumAnimationBlendMode>

ElementWeight

A way of specifying Weight for each element. Also see ElementBlendMode to control blend modes per element..

[JsonProperty]
public Dictionary<string, float> ElementWeight

Field Value

Dictionary<string, float>

FpVariant

public AnimationMetaData FpVariant

Field Value

AnimationMetaData

HoldEyePosAfterEasein

A value that determines whether to change the first-person eye position for the camera. Higher values will keep eye position static.

[JsonProperty]
public float HoldEyePosAfterEasein

Field Value

float

MulWithWalkSpeed

Should this animation speed be multiplied by the movement speed of the entity?

[JsonProperty]
public bool MulWithWalkSpeed

Field Value

bool

StartFrameOnce

public float StartFrameOnce

Field Value

float

SupressDefaultAnimation

Should this animation stop default animations from playing?

[JsonProperty]
public bool SupressDefaultAnimation

Field Value

bool

TriggeredBy

Controls when this animation should be played.

[JsonProperty]
public AnimationTrigger TriggeredBy

Field Value

AnimationTrigger

WasStartedFromTrigger

public bool WasStartedFromTrigger

Field Value

bool

Weight

The weight of this animation. When using multiple animations at a time, this controls the significance of each animation. The method for determining final animation values depends on this and BlendMode.

[JsonProperty]
public float Weight

Field Value

float

WeightCapFactor

This property can be used in cases where a animation with high weight is played alongside another animation with low element weight. In these cases, the easeIn become unaturally fast. Setting a value of 0.8f or similar here addresses this issue.

• 0f = uncapped weight
  
• 0.5f = weight cannot exceed 2
  
• 1f = weight cannot exceed 1

[JsonProperty]
public float WeightCapFactor

Field Value

float

WithFpVariant

[JsonProperty]
public bool WithFpVariant

Field Value

bool
