Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm currently working on reversing GTA:SA's parachute implementation. I found the following lines:

9@ = Object.Create(#PARACHUTE, $TEMPVAR_X_COORD, $TEMPVAR_Y_COORD, $TEMPVAR_Z_COORD)

075A: set_object 9@ animation "PARA_OPEN_O" IFP_file "PARACHUTE" 1000.0 lockF 0 loop 1 // IF AND SET

which is applying an animation (in this case, block: PARACHUTE and anim PARA_OPEN_O

Describe the solution you'd like

In order to fully implement GTA:SA's default parachute system we'd need a way to set object animations. Therefore, a function like setObjectAnimation would be a nice idea.

  • object animations are per model

  • Yes, object anims work the same as ped anims. There's a bug in mta's codebase which causes the object anims to crash. I was trying to fix it but then I got distracted and started working on something else
  • But before we can play object anims, the object must have skinned data like peds in the dff model
  • engineReplaceModel crashes when trying to load skin data for object models. Yes, it's possible to fix it
