Chaingun Animation Problem (I think)

Post by RogueKnight »

Hidden/Spoiler:
Well, I had an error, so I figured I would save Tean the trouble of reminding me and fix my Soldieranimation pool thing myself, but I can't seem to find the tutorial for it, I tried the search, but all I found was spam from other errors asking how to fix it, and it doesnt seem to be in the everything you need to know thread. Can someone link me?
Chaingun Problem:
I have a DC-15 with an underbarrel chaingun, and I didn't like that the chaingun animations played everytime i shot the chaingun part of it, so I replaced the animationbank line with Rifle instead of bazooka, and the map crashed.

Re: SoldierAnimation

Post by YaNkFaN »

it's extremely simple

put this line

SetMemoryPoolSize("SoldierAnimation", ###)

before this line

SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo",20)

in your .lua

and you're done
obviously ###= a number (try to round up and add like 100-200 so if your log says 1056 go to 1100 and then add 200 so 1300 (you want a nice round number))

soldier animation usually doesn't crash the map upon loading it does however sometimes hide errors that do or just make your map buggy i suggest putting that line on any new map you do it saves a lot of wasted time and energy searching for bugs
