I guess I must be dense :(<br>
I still do not get it.<br>
<br>
Below is how I think the animation system works.<br>
Let me know where I am wrong.<br>
I have a Avatar or a NPC with an attachment.<br>
The attachment has script which plays an animation using an
animation function like llStartAnimation().<br>
Now like any other script, the script when triggered, will run on
the server side. (Right ?)<br>
When the server encounters the animation function the server will
send a message to the client asking it to play an animation with
that UUID<br>
If the client has an animation with that UUID it will animate the
Avatar or NPC with that animation else it will ask the server to
send the animation and will animate when it receives it.<br>
If the animation is internal animation and if it is, as you say,
part of the client then the client already has it and should be
able to animate the Avatar/NPC<br>
<br>
Sorry to belabor this but it seems I am obviously missing a major
concept and would like to figure out what :))<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

<div>As your NPC is not controlled by a client, it doesn't have

Thanks for pointing out the BVH files.<br>
121 files!!<br>
A bit of a pain uploading them :)<br>
You also loose the per bone priorites which you get with
internal/default animations.<br>
Also I am assuming that user loaded animations are not as
efficient as internal ones. Right?<br>
<br>
I am still curious why the internal animations do not
play.<br>
As far as I know all animations run on client side.<br>
The triggers for animation can come from client side
(example when a users presses a key to make the avatar
walk)<br>
or from server side (example when if it is being called
from script).<br>
NPCs animations are triggered from scripts.<br>
How is this different from Avatar animations being
triggered from scripts ?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

Because some animations are built into the viewer and
npcs dont use a viewer and perhaps for security
reasons. Im not really completely sure to be honest.<br>
