Charactor / entity animation on trigger - jssjr90 - 07-24-2013

I was wondering if it where ever possible with in the hpl2 engine to trigger a animation file upon a entity that is rigged?

I did notice this achievement on a certain full conversion (forgot the name) but the character jumps down a hole and it goes back to 1st person. And the full conversion had this cool sci-fi overlay screen fx. Like you where the terminator.

The software I was looking into are the following:
Maya 2011 (Have)
Ipi Mocap Studio 2 (motion capture software. Capture your body movements with just the kinect.)

If I cannot do the mo-cap. Would it be possible to play any animation file upon trigger from the entity that has the animation file associated with it?

PHP Code:
void PlayPropAnimation(string& asProp, string& asAnimation, float afFadeTime, bool abLoop, string& asCallback);

So yeah, pretty much what YC said. If it's with path nodes, you use:

AddEnemyPatrolNode("Yourmonster", "Node", 0, "YOURANIMATION");
