Dialog during a custom animation

    Hi Guy´s,

    I have another question. I´m trying to setup a dialog between two characters, during which both need to be in a seated animation. Is this possible?

    Every time the dialog starts, both characters are placed in standing animation and i´m not figuring how to manage this.

    Thank you.
    Best Regards.

    You need to create multiple character outfits & swap to them as needed. It's also possible to use character animation index value, but I'll not discuss how that works as that method has always been hit & miss for me.

    1. create a new outfit for each of your characters that you need to show the seated position. Add the default seated position animation to the standing (idle) animation section of the outfit. Add a talking version of the seated animation to the talking animation section of the outfit.

    2. What you want to do is have the outfit change immediately after playing the sit down animation or immediately swap to the sitting outfit version at begin of scene if you intend to show them already sitting down.

    Hope this helps?

    P.S: there's a change outfit action part listed under character action parts category.
