I'm having some frustrating problems with regard to controlling an MD2 character's animation sequences.

The big problem seems to be with the jump animation.

Can anyone help?

My code looks like this:

;Called every frame

Function UpdateCharacter(model)
   
   currentanimframe = MD2AnimateTime(model)

   Select(True)
 
      Case (KeyHit(57))   : If (currentanimframe < 67) Or (currentanimframe > 72) AnimateMD2 model, 3, 0.1, 67, 72, 2 ;JUMP ANIMATION (SPACE BAR)

      Case (KeyDown(200)) : If (currentanimframe < 40) Or (currentanimframe > 46) AnimateMD2 model, 1, 0.1, 40, 46, 2 ;RUN ANIMATION (FORWARD ARROW)

      Default   :    If (currentanimframe > 40) AnimateMD2 model, 1, 0.1, 0, 40, 2 ;DEFAULT IDLE ANIMATION

   End Select

End Function

The run animation triggers fine, but the jump anim doesn't.

I've used KeyHit() for jump and KeyDown() for run.

I think it might have something to do with this.

you don't need to spread the forum with the same question.
