I'm working (or better, going to work ) on Stivan the Hunter as a joinable NPC. For those who do not know him, he is a CN halfling FT located at x4845 y2049 in the docks, hunting seagulls.
Of course, given his obsession for seagulls, I will probably insert a quest to hunt a particularly dangerous seagull. Now, here comes my problem: seagulls' animation don't have the foot circle. Seagull's animation is the number 53504, or 0xd100.
Anyone has any idea on how to add one :help: ?
Thank you very much for any help!

Unless you're working with PST, it's hardcoded to the animation slot as far as I know.

Wow, cool. I'll have to work out something else, then. Isn't solving hardcoded limitations funny, anyway?

You can try to copy (and convert) the seagull to an unused animation (this isn't an easy process).
I would suggest MTAS (0x7c01). It is unused.

You could also use strong/bright colors (0x51, 0x52) to give the special seagull a different color.

Better yet, extract the existing seagull animation, give it a .VVC file, make a creature with the rat animation (and with the avatar removal opcode, of course), and make the .vvc play on the creature.

I've already done this once with the Lady of Pain in my not-so-known mod.
