AGS Lip Sync Idea

[R4L]

If anyone has played a game with voice actors(Resident Evil) do you notice that sometimes they raise an arm when they ask a question? I was thinking that maybe in the lip sync area there could be a question mark and under it a run script area. It could be cool because if you want to animate your character raising a hand, you could make it in the script and put it in a run script area(name of the script goes in it ex: Global Script)in the lip sync editor. Then when it notices the ?, it can run the script. Am I confusing anyone?

It doesn't confuse me (at least, I don't think so...)

I don't know though ... that kind of thing in games has always bothered me a little.Ã,  Because I don't know of too many people that actually get that animated when asking a question.Ã,  I might raise an eyebrow ... but rarely do I throw my hand skyward

I don't think it would be a bad idea to have what you suggest ... I'm merely saying I probably wouldn't use that particular animation.

Resident Evil is a bit of a bad example, being as the voice acting is so dire! Long pauses in the middle of the conversation, and the aforementioned flamboyent gestures.

Anyway, yeah, sounds like a nice idea. If you were doing close-ups for conversations it would be nice to be able to do that sort of thing. Raising eyebrows and such.
