First off, this is double posting. Nobody likes that, here. Second, this is the wrong place for this thread - there are at least two or three forums where this would be a far more appropriate question. I recommend in the future posting questions like this in the "artist's corner" or the "map development" forum. There's a much greater chance people will answer you there.

Having said that, I'll try to answer you - there's an easy way, and a hard way to solve this problem. The easy way is to turn this into a periodic trigger that is timed to play when the animation is finished. So if the animation takes 5 seconds to paly, make this trigger run every 5 seconds. The harder way is to convert the mdx of the model into an mdl, and look in the animation section of the file. The animation you are trying to loop will have the word "nonlooping" in its parameters. Delete that and the animation will loop.


Admins - somebody please move this to the mapmaking forum.
