Error message for animations

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 1:29am

I’m trying to put some animations in, and with a lot of them I keep getting this error message.

It says “Behaviour idle_read_phone_neutral may not exist in all imitated body types for imitating character GIRL5. May display idle animation instead.”

This happens for about 5 different animations that are used in this scene. I’ve been writing for years so I know these animations exist. I’ve reloaded and re-saved and the same issue pops up.

Is anyone else having this problem, and/or know why it might be happening?

Is this for limelight or a different art style?

I’m using INK :))

Okay! Let me see if I can help you.

Thank you

I think this might help:

Instead of writing “is” you should write “starts”

Hopefully this helps!

I actually did try that beforehand, I originally wrote “&GIRL5 starts idle_read_phone_neutral” but it also didn’t work which is what made me change it to “is” It’s never happened before, I’m so confused

Thank you, though

I’m sorry I wasn’t able to help you. Not sure why that’s happening to you.

I need to add the character spot. U cant have an animation without their spot. Meaning their position in the scene.

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 1:56am

No problem Thank you for your help anyway!

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 1:56am

The character’s spot was already added earlier in the scene :))

lanafrazer_episode · September 18, 2021, 1:56am

Add it again on that same line where the error is. or U can add it with the spot and then add THEN so when the character finish the first animation then they can do the phone animation

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 1:58am

It didn’t work I’m not sure why this is happening, I’ve been writing for 2 years and I’ve never come across this

Can I see the full script? Copy and paste it in the chat.

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 2:00am

Sure

Summary

lanafrazer_episode · September 18, 2021, 2:02am

Ah, so you’re using ink. Use a different phone animation. That animation is not for ink.

lanafrazer_episode · September 18, 2021, 2:03am

idle_read_phone_neutral.

Use this one: read_phone_neutral

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 2:03am

The thing is, when I search it up in the “animations” it comes up, and when I preview, it also works. I’ve also used it countless times in other scripts with no issues. My only problem is the “warning” messages on the lefthand side that are bothering me

Abimations4 · September 18, 2021, 2:03am

I’ll try it, thanks :))

I’m also looking in animations. lol
