Custom Idle Animation Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.7.3

by: Xerrok [More]

WARNING ABOUT VERSIONS 1.7 AND 1.7.1!
Since the indices of the emotes were changed by Zenimax, and the fact that this addon only stores the indices of emotes, idle sets from previous versions can't be migrated and therefore will be deleted!
I've changed it so, that the names of the emotes instead of the indices will be stored from now on, so that this case won't happen again.

With this addon you are able to replace the default idle animation with any in-game emotes.
You can use idle sets to totally customize your idle animation with all available emotes. Every emote can be given a minimum play time and a priority for more customization. Feel free to make idle sets for several "moods" of your characters.

The emotes will play almost immediately after your character's idle starts and the defined delay has passed. After that, the emotes will refresh every time when the defined minimum time has passed, or repeatedly during its minimum time, if loop is activated. The same emote can be executed more than once, which can result in a longer time a certain emote is being played.

With the chat command /cia or Escape->Settings->Addons->Custom Idle Animations you will get into the settings.
If you hover with the cursor over the single settings, a tooltip will pop up with helpful information.

You can assign keys to easily switch between the idle sets and a key to activate/deactivate the addon in the controls settings of ESO.

Known Bug:

When trying to sit on chairs, benches and such, the emotes will interrupt it. Deactivate the addon with the assigned key, so the character will keep sitting.
Having any UI window active and the game not in focus, results in getting messages, that the action couldn't be executed.

This is because of a change on Zenimax' side and how I interpreted the incoming data. I've posted a warning and small explanation in the addon info page. The described issue is fixed with the new version 1.7.1. Last edited by MBW91 : 06/10/22 at 08:32 PM.

I found this add-on like a year or so ago and have loved it ever since, so I hope you're able to address these issues. <3

I am having the same issue

Here is hoping it can get fixed! It was a great addon!

tobarstep Forum posts: 0 File comments: 28 Uploads: 0	/idle not correct for equipped personality I got the new Minstrel personality and it has a unique /idle animation, but when I have it set to that the addon shows the game default /idle instead. If I turn the addon off it reverts to the personality's /idle. edit: sadly I'm not sure what can be done about this. If you just stop moving, the special idle animation for the Minstrel personality will play. But if you actually type in /idle it reverts to the game default animation. It seems that the personality's idle is somehow independent of the other existing idle animations. Last edited by tobarstep : 04/14/22 at 03:43 PM.

Hey, thank you for making & sharing the addon! And for not getting mad at me for publicly bootlegging your source code, haha. It's absolutely not the most polished solution, infinite loops of any kind rarely are- but I figured re-checking the idle status once a second wouldn't be the worst performance hit in the world...

It was just bugging me (far more than it should've), to the point where I figured "hey I can code and Lua's simple enough to read, I could at least try to look into this..."

Sorry, for that I still not have looked into your mentioned issue. I simply can't spare time these days.

Any thoughts on what the issue is?

The mod was just grand until this happened. Thank you for making it!

Thanks in advance!

For me it's working fine and I've never had this issue before, except if the addon is not enabled in the addon list. This can happen, when an addon is outdated. This was the case for a longer time until now.

I have the delay timer set to 600 (1 minute?)
Idle3 is turned on, and it's the only one turned on.
Priority is 100 and timer is set to 600

Do I need to do something else to make it just play this idle?

I don't have this personality, so I can't really test this. I do something similar with the Deadlands personality though and I have no problems with that.

Unfortunately, on one of my characters, I use the assassin personality for the idle stance. This is overwritten by the idle emotes. Would it be possible to add a configurable delay between emotes where no other emote or idle emote is played? Thank you. I understand if it's too complicated. I still use this mod on my other character and I love it!

Thank you very much! Unfortunately I don't have a feature like that in the addon, but you can add the /idle emote in your emote set and give it a proper priority and minimum play time to kinda simulate this with some randomness.
Sorry I can't offer you any better solution for now.

How the emotes will be played in this addon will always be randomly ordered. But with a proper setup of priorities and minimum play time of your mentioned emotes, you can simulate something similar with randomness.

(As mentioned in my previous comment, this basically just makes it so the global 'Delay' timer actually resets itself if you stop idling.)

Edit IdleSet.lua, replace line 77 with this:

Lua Code:

EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForUpdate("IdleSetCheckIdleDelay", 1000, function() self:CheckIdleDelay(self.delay) end)

And then copy+paste this block of code into line 67:

Lua Code:

function IdleSet:CheckIdleDelay(remainingDelay)
    EVENT_MANAGER:UnregisterForUpdate("IdleSetCheckIdleDelay")
    if (IsBusy()) then
        EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForUpdate("IdleSetCheckIdleDelay", 1000, function() self:CheckIdleDelay(self.delay) end)
        return
    end
    if(remainingDelay > 0) then
        EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForUpdate("IdleSetCheckIdleDelay", 1000, function() self:CheckIdleDelay(remainingDelay - 1) end)
    else
        self:SetActiveIdle(true)
    end
end

(Disclaimer: I've only tested it enough to see that it works- there's still technically a small chance this won't detect that you stopped idling, since it only checks once every second to see if you're busy. There's naturally always a chance of introducing other unforseen bugs when changing someone else's code, so please don't ask Xerrok for help if you've applied this fix and something stops working)

Thank you very much for your detailed explanation of the problem in your previous post and the fix in this post. I will look into the problem and your solution as soon as I can spare some time.
