Animation Events (File Format)
From Retro Modding Wiki
|
This file format is almost completely documented Some event parameters need research |
The EVNT format is a companion to ANIM resources. Animators are able to synchronize functional events to rigged animations for things like sound effects, visual effects, character messages, and playback control.
