[SOLVED] Third Person Jump and Play Animation

Help & Support

First you have to add your jump animation to the animation component. You can find this animation component on the Model entity that is a child of your Player entity. Rename the animation to ‘Jump’.

To play this animation replace the checkButtons function with the code below. In this code I have added on two places the jump state and disable the loop option before. I enable the loop option again on two two other places. I have not tested this, so let me know if you have a problem.

PlayerAnimationHandler.prototype.checkButtons = function () {
    var app = this.app;
    
    var w = app.keyboard.isPressed(pc.KEY_W);
    var a = app.keyboard.isPressed(pc.KEY_A);
    var s = app.keyboard.isPressed(pc.KEY_S);
    var d = app.keyboard.isPressed(pc.KEY_D);
    var space = app.keyboard.isPressed(pc.KEY_SPACE);

    if (w && !s) {
        if (space) {
            this.entity.animation.loop = false;
            this.direction = 'Jump';
        } else if (a && !d) {
            this.direction = 'Run Forward Left';
        } else if (d && !a) {
            this.direction = 'Run Forward Right';
        } else {
            this.entity.animation.loop = true;
            this.direction = 'Run Forward';
        }
    } else if (s && !w) {
        if (a && !d) {
            this.direction = 'Run Backward Left';
        } else if (d && !a) {
            this.direction = 'Run Backward Right';
        } else {
            this.direction = 'Run Backward';
        }
    } else if (a && !d) {
        this.direction = 'Run Left';
    } else if (d && !a) {
        this.direction = 'Run Right';
    } else if (space) {
        this.entity.animation.loop = false;
        this.direction = 'Jump';
    } else {
        this.entity.animation.loop = true;
        this.direction = 'Idle';
    }
};
