We need documentation for the new animation system.

Open riccardobl opened this issue 4 years ago • 10 comments

I know some people here are using it with the gltf importer, there is still no documentation on the wiki, and the "old" one was deprecated. If someone could provide some documentation, it would be greatly appreciated.

Agreed. Thanks for opening the issue here.

Not a wiki page, but we have one forum page plus some tests in case that helps: https://hub.jmonkeyengine.org/t/monkanim-v2/39877

It would be great to have documentation on the new animation system. I actually was about to work on some animation code and did not realize that the wiki did not have the new system under the 3.3 version, so thank you for opening this issue @riccardobl. Unfortunately I know very, very little about the new system.

Okay , i am currently studying the new animation system , so which topics would you like to include in the wiki rather than the 'basic implementation' , so i could try to build some testcases & docs specifically for these topics.....

Some detailed examples on tweens, and blending for transitions between animations would be nice. It would be great to have at least one example of using two animations on different parts of the model at once, and how to limit which bones and geometries the animation plays on.

I'd be interested in how to synchronize animations with audio and particles. I don't know what would be the best approach.

Okay , thanks for recommendations , I will try my best , I will have a github repo that has a testCase for most of basic animation & tween binding with audio & particle emitters(the hack) into simple scenes , the github repo would have a small wiki that we can revise & add/remove from it before merging to the actual jme wiki , that would obviously take some time.

Check this : #1626

This issue was originally about documenting the animation system in the wiki.

Improving the javadoc (as PRs #1626 and #1642 do) is also very important, but I think it's a separate issue.

This issue should be moved to the wiki repository.
