IQM Weapon Stuck in "Select" State and is Unresponsive

[milkFiend]

To summarize: The IQM Model displays fine, but gets stuck in the first state called and is unresponsive

To be specific:
I've made an IQM Model of Arms and a Pistol with the intentions of attaching the Pistol Model later.
For now, I have a ModelDef, a ZScript file, and made the necessary additions to display the Arms model, which it does!

But when I use the weapon, it goes through the first set animation once then freezes completely, unable to switch to another weapon (not without dropping it with the drop command)

It seems to be reading the animations properly, but is getting stuck at the very first state called and I don't know why. I'd guess there's something wrong with the frame duration?
I'll paste the ZScript file for now then add the PK3 if need be

The ZScript:

Code: Select all

Class Model70 : Weapon
{
	Default
	{
		Weapon.SlotNumber 1;
		Weapon.AmmoType "Clip";
		Weapon.AmmoGive 32;
		Weapon.AmmoUse 1;
		+DECOUPLEDANIMATIONS
	}
	States
	{
		Spawn:
			MD70 A -1 NoDelay
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Fire");
				}
			Stop;
		Ready:
			MD70 A -1 
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Reload");
					A_WeaponReady;
				}
			Loop;
		Select: //As of now, the weapon plays the animation in this state once then freezes, making it un-switchable with any other weapon
			MD70 A -1
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Fire");
					A_Raise;
				}
			Loop;
		Deselect:
			MD70 A -1
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Fire");
					A_Lower;
				}
			Loop;
		Fire:
			MD70 A -1
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Fire");
					A_FireBullets(1, 1, 1, 1);
				}
			GoTo Ready;
		Reload:
			MD70 A -1
				{
					A_SetAnimation("Pistol_Reload");
				}
			GoTo Ready;
	}
}

A duration of -1 tells the engine to stay on the current state ("frame animation", if you will) and not advance to the next one automatically. Typically, you'll want to set the duration of Ready, Select and Deselect states to 1.

I've set Ready, Select, and Deselect states to 1 and it's still frozen, but now it doesn't go through the first animation sequence.

I've changed the "loop" line into "goto ready" in the select state, and that seems to fix it for now, but I don't know why every example of decoupled animations I've seen uses "loop". Is that important?

Nevermind, nothings fixed, I'm back at square 1

Use 1 instead of -1 everywhere in your cod
And specify the starting frame and the ending frame of the animation outside the brackets, example:

Code: Select all

		Fire:
			M000 B 0
				{
					A_FireBullets(1, 1, 1, 1);
				}
			M000 B 3 NoDelay A_SetAnimation("shoot");
			GoTo Ready;

After trying to work with IQMs for a bit, setting the state duration to 1 doesn't really seem to work, as it only plays 1 frame of the specified animation.
Setting the duration to -1 plays the entire animation and loops it. But, if there's a workaround (other than manually setting the duration to the frame count of the animation) then I'm willing to listen.
