ANIM (IDE section)
Supported games:San Andreas GTA IV
Brief description:Used to define animated map objects
IDE Sections:

ANIM is a section in the item definition file in San Andreas and GTA IV. It is used to define standard map objects linked to an animation. Its format is almost exactly like standard map objects but with one additional parameter for the animation file. GTA IV added a section (TANM) that supports time controlled objects linked to animations.

Format

San Andreas

anim
Id, ModelName, TxdName, AnimationName, DrawDistance, Flags
end
San Andreas Identifier Type Description
A Id integer Unique object ID.
B ModelName string Name of the .dff model file without extension.
C TxdName string Name of the .txd texture dictionary without extension.
D AnimationName string Name of the .ifp animation file without extension.
E DrawDistance float Draw distance in units.
F Flags integer Object flags

Note that animated models still have static collisions. This means that the collision do not animate with the model since it does not contain bone information for the animation. If you want to move objects, you can do this using the script. [1]
