Multiple Animations Script does not work ...

[$cHm0cK]

Hi!

I have a little Problem ...

Thing is, i need the possibility to show 2 or more Animations at the same Time on an event and/or Player instead of only just one. I found on this forum an old Topic about it and there was posted a Script by Trickster.

#==============================================================================
# ** Multiple Animations
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# SephirothSpawn
# Version 1
# 2007-03-06
# SDK : Version 2.0, Part 1
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Version History :
#
#   Version 1 ---------------------------------------------------- (2007-03-06)
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Description :
#
#   This script was designed to show multiple animation sprites at the same 
#   time. When an animation sprite is created, it is immediately added to an 
#   array of animation sprites. From there, each animation sprite is handeled 
#   the same way the default animation sprite is handeled. This also delays 
#   animations to prevent multiple damages being displayed at once.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# * Instructions :
#
#   Place The Script Below the SDK and Above Main.

It's from Sephiroth ... from that what i understand its excactly that, what i need. Showing more animations at the same time on player/Events.
So ... i tried it and here is the Problem ... it doesnt work! I dont know .. maybe i'm doing smth. wrong. I'm calling the animations just as normal (Show Animation - > Player). But still i get only one Animation shown (the last one) when i try 2 Show Animation Codes.

I have the SDK (2.4) installed (part 1 what is just needed for this one) ... and i already tested it with the full SDK.
But it just doesn't work ... hope someone can help me.

I'm sorry for this bump .. but it isnt excactly one ^^.

I finally realized with some testing that this Script DOES work ... the Thing is:

It works with the Battle Animations in the Standard Battle System (Show Battle Animation and not Show Animation).
Well ... fine, but thats sadly not the thing i need. So .. is it possible that someone could edit this Script in such a way that it works for the "Show Animation" Command too so it would be possible to start more than just one animation on the Map at the same time on an event/player.

Thanks and greetz

BUMP

EDIT:

Problem solved! It does work with the Show Animation Command. The Thing is ... you have to put a Wait about 1 (or more) frame(s) between the Animations.
