TNT animator studio Events not triggered

DoradoLab · March 2014

Hi Greg/All,

I am new to TNT Animator Studio.
I am tried with all its properties and methods. Its awesome... But my worry is i just want a property of (currentFrameNumber) option to be enabled and also i am not getting how to use the Events. I tried the example 2 but my Event is not triggered as well the animation is not stopping in the End. Please can you give me clear vision how to deal with stop animation and Events .. It will be really helpful for me to complete my project.

With regards,

DoradoLab

Hello @DoradoLab
I just checked and they work
here is the small example on how to use them:

local function is32bit()
	return string.dump(is32bit):byte(9) == 4
end
 
if is32bit() then
	require("tntanimator32")
else
	require("tntanimator64")
end
 
-- just read texture pack
local crockTexturePack = TexturePack.new("crock.txt", "crock.png")
local background = Bitmap.new(Texture.new("logo.png"))
 
-- init texture animation loader and read animations... 
local crockLoader = CTNTAnimatorLoader.new()
 
-- read nimation infos 
crockLoader:loadAnimations("crock.tan", crockTexturePack, true)
 
CPlayer = Core.class(Sprite)
 
function CPlayer:init(playerType)
	self.lastDirection = 1
	self.anim = CTNTAnimator.new(crockLoader)
	self.anim:addEventListener("ANIM_START", function(e)
		print("ANIM_START")
	end)
	self.anim:addEventListener("ANIM_STOP", function(e)
		print("ANIM_STOP")
	end)
	self.anim:addEventListener("ANIM_CHANGE", function(e)
		print("ANIM_CHANGE")
	end)
	self.anim:setAnimation("CROCK_IDLE_DOWN")
	self.anim:playAnimation()
    self.anim:addToParent(self)
	Timer.delayedCall(5000, function()
		self.anim:stopAnimation()
	end)
end
 
local crock = CPlayer.new()
crock:setPosition(application:getContentWidth()/2, application:getContentHeight()/2)
stage:addChild(crock)

Output is:

ANIM_CHANGE - when animation set
ANIM_START - when started playing
ANIM_STOP - when stopped playing

And I've attached modified (basically cut down) example2 projec to let you try it

Hi,

I have tried it's working and got to know what was my mistake. I should have been used Timer to stop animation. So now from your example i got to know it. But the problem is i am not getting how to adjust it to my number of frames exactly to stop it...

Do you have any method to calculate the total time for the required frame to play and stop it after that time slab.

Please reply ...

Thanks and Regards,

DoradoLab

I think it can be done like this:

local frames = self.anim:getFrameCount()
local timeToEnd = self.anim:getSpeed()*frames
Timer.delayedCall(timeToEnd, function()end)

In similar way you can control on which frame to pause/stop the animation

Additionally I think you could mark specific frame as stop frame in TNT Animator Studio, which should also cause the animation to stop on that specific frame

GregBUG · March 2014

you can retrive current animation frame with

"function CTNTAnimator:getCurrentFrame()"

and/or with editor you can mark a frame with "stop" property and event will be raised on that frame...

just like in example 5

UPDATE: UH, I found an old discussion with released full version of tntanimator.lua
Now examples work!

Hey guys! I'm trying TNT animator studio now. For some reason I can't make any of the old examples work.
gproj-file from this post: http://giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/comment/35539/#Comment_35539
I'm getting error:main.lua is uploading.
Uploading finished.
error loading module 'tntanimator32' from file '.\tntanimator32.lua':
.\tntanimator32.lua: bad code in precompiled chunk
stack traceback:
main.lua:6: in main chunk
How to make it work? Can somebody share a quick basic gproj example that actually works?
THX!
(i guess something is broken inside encrypted tntanimator64.lua file?)
