Creating Faceposer Gestures
... 
Faceposer can use any sequence in a model as a gesture, but timing tags (Apex, Accent, Loop, End), thumbnail frames, classification as a posture, etc. must be specified through a sequence's own keyvalues. This page is for creating new gestures or postures designed to be used in Faceposer. If you want to know how to place an existing gesture into a choreography scene, see Creating skeletal animation events.
Note:These are for a sequence's keyvalues, not the model's $KeyValues.Example
An example of a gesture with Faceposer options. This was found in models/male_gestures.mdl. The rest of the sequence has been removed for easier reading.
$sequence "b_head_back" {
...
keyvalues
{
faceposer
{
"type" "gesture"
"tags"
{
"apex" "10"
"extreme" "42"
"loop" "43"
"end" "44"
}
"entrytag" "apex"
"thumbnail_frame" "42"
}
}
}
Options
type <choices>- What Faceposer should classify this animation as.
gesture- Classifies the animation as a gesture, putting it in the "Gestures" category and behaving like a gesture during playback.
posture- Classifies the animation as a posture, putting it in the "Postures" category and behaving like a posture during playback.
Note:Time tag names are not tied to anything at all, meaning you could name them anything you want. The tags listed are just those found in Valve's gestures.tags { [stuff] }- Timing tags and which frame they are located at. All tags should be subkeys.
apex <frame>accent <frame>loop <frame>end <frame>
entrytag <tag>- Which of the tags specified in
tagsshould be the "entry tag".
exittag <tag>- Which of the tags specified in
tagsshould be the "exit tag".
