Overview
AVP (Animation View Position) files are used to create small animated props. They are referenced by ATC files and specify the location and size of animation frames within a source FSH. They can specify a variable number of rotations, but only 4 (for props) and 8 (for sprites ie: pedestrian animations) are useful.
Important Points
AVP files and their companion ATC files have some specific requirements and caveats:
- Each ATC file must have a unique set of AVP files or the prop will appear in game as a brown box.
- Multiple ATC files can reference the same source FSH. (Although this will cause incorrect animations in the Reader, they will appear correctly in game.)
- ATC prop rotations are specified in a different order than S3D prop rotations. (This is not a problem for most standalone props, but traffic lights and RR crossings interact with stop points and static props and must be created correctly.)
