Hi there,
since i am past my problems with not showing animations, i a was able to get much further in my project and made significant progress. The problem i have now is as follows: I have a button object and a camera with an animation (80frames). When the button gets klicked, i want to play a part of that animation (40 frames) and stop it there.
How do i do that? In my current puzzle setup it just goes on and on. It sticks to the defined frame range but does not stop. How can I archive that?
Regards,
Heiner

What type of loop mode set on the object with animation? Try to set it at once, this must help.

Hi Mikhail,
as you can see in the screen i seperated the two animations now. First i let the animation of the button play after the click, and the i want to let the animation of the camera play (FRame 1-40). Problem is, in the node which lets me select limited frames to play, there is no way to select a play modus (once, repeat etc). When i put a play anim node in front and set tit to once, it plays the full anim once. So i started to make a construct of play anim with frame nr. and put a stop animation after it, but that is also not working.

Yes, i know that. But play animation from-to always took type of looping from Blender’s object preferences so to avoid repeating you need to set it once in blender before export.
