Hello everyone. I have gotten a cool new idea for a mod on Sanctuary, but I am having a problem. I do not know how to make characters have animation. I want it so grunts just repeadedly bow down...

Thanks!

Its not possible to inject animations into Halo 2 yet.

Don't make a bunch of topics either. Just put a buch of questions into one.

I thought you just could notmake your own. I thought you can use premade animation in SP.

Well there most likely isn't a animation of a grunt bowing in sp, if you see one in a cut scene it is going to most liekly be scripted. If you even got an animation it isn't possible to spawn a biped in multiplayer and have it excute an animation.

Not always will it be a scen. some stuff is scripted, and noticed I had said

not all will be scripted.

I do remember seeing the mod on foundation with the clappign marine replacing the rocket launcher.

The bowing grunt must be scripted then since it is in a cut scene. Can someone please tell mehow to apply the script to the grunt and spawn it on the map? Thanks!

It is possable to spawn a biped and have it loop an animation. The only problem is finding the right animation you want considerering there are hundreds of differnt animations. I'll try to look into the grunt animations over the break to see if i can find one that would possably work for you.
