Re: sby's loader imports; 8/09/2014: too much stuff to list here
Couldn't find any folder named SDT in the loader, but I copy/pasted all the position files bundles with AnimTools 7 into the settings folder in the same loader version where I put AnimTools to auto load. Still nothing - no position changing. What must I do?

if it keeps failing after trying that, you can upload a folder for me to look at, or try watching the 'animtooltutorial2' in the original post
edit - 3:40 to 3:55 show placing the files in said folder
the folder you want to put the position files in is the loader's "Settings" folderSlingerbult said:

Re: sby's loader imports; 8/09/2014: too much stuff to list here
I'm downloading the v2 tutorial now (hope it also includes info about dia triggers) but I've found something that could be a problem:
The .txt file name in the "some positions" folder is ATV6_laydownarmsprop.txt (for instance). The trigger in the sample dialogue file is [ANIMTOOLS_ATV6laydownarmsprop] (after I corrected it from ATV5). Should it actually be [ANIMTOOLS_ATV6_laydownarmsprop] to work or is the underscore subtracted in some manner? Complete details on position file naming and appropriate triggers would be appreciated!

you are correct that it should be [ANIMTOOLS_ATV6_laydownarmsprop] , i keep renaming the position file collection a little differently when i update them. but hopefully i won't have to update them anymore because the v7 animtools has better backwards compatibility.
(also, you should move all of the sample positions into the loader's 'Settings' folder for the dialog loading to work)
i think i will write up a usage guide that is separate from the changelog notes. seems people have a hard time using the mod.
lol, i haven't updated that example dialog in a while xDSlingerbult said:

Re: sby's loader imports; 8/09/2014: too much stuff to list here
I see - well it's just that I expect a sample dialogue to be fool proof and valid for testing purposes. As in, something I can use to test I have the right set up before writing my own stuff.
Anyway, it still didn't work after I corrected the triggers, so I tried loading the mod manually and then it "worked" (see below). So something is up with my auto-loading too. I've never auto-loaded mods before, so the only thing I did was follow the instructions: I have the animtools v7 swf and settings copy/pasted into the $INIT folder under loader/mods (and the position files in loader/settings of course). It doesn't auto load, but it loads fine manually when I access it through the options menu.
Anyway, the first_dt trigger should switch positions to "that other thing you like", she says. The filename suggests doggy style, but instead he got dismembered and doesn't have proper orientation. What gives?

Re: sby's loader imports; 8/09/2014: too much stuff to list here
as for auto loading, did you update the 'Mods.txt' in the $init$ folder to include animtools?
hmm, not sure why weird shit happening; best thing might be to upload your loader folder.Slingerbult said:

I'm getting some positions setup, after a few false starts, and liking what I can do within the limitations of the SDT game (lack of her feet points, his knees, and not understanding much of how her neck works, for example).
I started setting up some character folders, also once I got that figured out and realized how I could use it, but the animtoolsposition is not being loaded with the background, dialog and other files. Do I have it named wrong? Does it need to be listed in the mod.txt file somehow? Do I not understand how to use the init and over folders? (Things in init work just fine, but when I tried to put animtools in the over folder it did not load).
I also have a number of backgrounds I'm creating by taking some of the usual scenic BGs and adding cut out figures from a variety of other sources, then hiding the Him model and positioning the dick where it fits. When I have these done and figure out where/how to host them, if necessary, I'll develop some dialogs. I hope I can use several BGs/pos files for each but I'm not worried about that yet.
The eventual goal is to create a zip/rar with everything but the actual mods you can download and drag/drop into position, add the animtools mod to the folder, and go.

"animtoolscharposition.txt"
completely remaking a user and setup guide, so hopefully things like this will be cleaned out

I think I'll wait for your new guide. I changed the file name, and thought it loaded, then went and did other things. Went back to change the others that I have and they did not work, then the first one I changed I checked and it did not work either.

PoC for calf transform for animtool, max hackiness.
You could probably use a point based transform by calculating the angle between knee/foot.
Code:
var s3; //Var to store default object.
var ang = 0; //Some angle.
function setup()
{
s3 = her.torsoIK.s3; //Store target.
her.torsoIK.s3 = new MovieClip(); //Redirect transform.
her.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, ef); //Set up EF for new transform.
}
function ef(e){
ang++; //Some angle.
var m:Matrix = her.torsoIK.section3Matrix.clone(); //Clone default transform.
m.translate(-her.torsoIK.s3StartPoint.x,-her.torsoIK.s3StartPoint.y); //Translate to origin.
m.rotate(ang*Math.PI/180); //Rotate
m.translate(her.torsoIK.s3StartPoint.x,her.torsoIK.s3StartPoint.y); //Translate back to offset.
s3.transform.matrix = m; //Apply transform.

Either I don't know what I'm doing here or I broke something in Animtools7. It seems that poses that have her hands "On legs" don't load the position of her hands. They are just left where ever they were before. Do I need to change something in my pose files or is it actually broken? This occurs with dialog triggered poses or if the poses are loaded in the animtools when it's open as an editor.
