Examples

Loading an animated Model

Here, we’re loading a Model that we know has the animations “Idle” and “Jump”. This sample shows some options, but only a single call to PlayAnim is necessary to start an animation.

Model model = Model.FromFile("Cosmonaut.glb");

// You can look at the model's animations:
foreach (Anim anim in model.Anims)
	Log.Info($"Animation: {anim.Name} {anim.Duration}s");

// You can play an animation like this
model.PlayAnim("Jump", AnimMode.Once);

// Or you can find and store the animations in advance
Anim jumpAnim = model.FindAnim("Idle");
if (jumpAnim != null)
	model.PlayAnim(jumpAnim, AnimMode.Loop);

Animation progress bar

A really simple progress bar visualization for the Model’s active animation.

Model with progress bar

model.Draw(Matrix.Identity);

Hierarchy.Push(Matrix.T(0.5f, 1, -.25f));

// This is a pair of green lines that show the current progress through
// the animation.
float progress = model.AnimCompletion;
Lines.Add(V.XY0(0, 0), V.XY0(-progress, 0),  new Color(0,1,0,1.0f), 2*U.cm);
Lines.Add(V.XY0(-progress, 0), V.XY0(-1, 0), new Color(0,1,0,0.2f), 2*U.cm);

// These are some labels for the progress bar that tell us more about
// the active animation.
Text.Add($"{model.ActiveAnim.Name} : {model.AnimMode}", Matrix.TS(0, -2*U.cm, 0, 3),        TextAlign.TopLeft);
Text.Add($"{model.AnimTime:F1}s",                       Matrix.TS(-progress, 2*U.cm, 0, 3), TextAlign.BottomCenter);

Hierarchy.Pop();
