bas files each represent an animation that can be called by an actor or cutscene. They contain a reference to an animation name, but not the animation file itself. They can be found at Actor/AS/{EventName}/{AnimationSequenceName}.bas in beventpacks and TitleBG.pack/Actor/AS, and Actor/AS/{AnimationSequenceName}.bas in bactorpacks.


Layout

Each bas file is made up of one list of elements, named Elements. Each element (Element0, Element1, etc) can be either a test to figure out what animation to play, or a call to play the animation.

Parameters

All nodes have Parameters, which determine what kind of node they are. They can be a control node, which helps decide which animation to play, or an animation node, which actually plays the animation.

Key Key Type Description Node Type Default value
TypeIndex int Type of node the Element is. Known types are listed below the table. - -
NoSync bool - Control -
JudgeOnce bool Tells the game to skip evaluating this node (and use the previous result) if the input value has not changed since the last time the node was run. Control False
InputLimit float - Control -
FileName str64 Name of the animation to play Animation -
Morph int Time to blend the previous animation into this one. Appears to be measured in frames. Animation -
SequenceLoop bool Determines whether a sequence (Used with TypeIndex 61) is set to repeat Control -

Parameter TypeIndex

Nodes with Blender are generally used to perform the same checks as those with Selector in the name, with a key difference: Blender nodes may evaluate multiple cases as true, and will blend the resulting animations together. Selector nodes will choose only the first case that evaluates to true.[check]

Index Name [1] Description Type
0 AbsTemperatureBlender Current world temperature. Evaluated by float range. Control
1 AbsTemperatureSelector Current world temperature. Evaluated by float range. Control
2 ArmorSelector What armor is currently equipped. Used only in Player_Wait.bas. Only observed working values are NoUpper, NoLower, NoAll.[2] Does not appear to accept armor actor names. Control
3 ArrowSelector Seems to check what arrow Link has equipped. However, the game only ever uses a StringArray of Empty and a default case. This is used to check whether Link has arrows in his bow, to determine how to blend his animations or to play different ones. Control

Children

Control nodes will have Children, in addition to Parameters, which determine which Element to go to after the control node is evaluated. The properties of Children will be named Child0, Child1, etc, and each will have a single integer value, which will correspond to the Element number. e.g. Child0: 7 points to Element7.

Extend

All nodes have an Extend, which contains specific details about the node. Control node Extends will contain details about the comparison being performed, while animation nodes will contain information about the animation being played, such as: during which frames of the animation a weapon will deal damage if it hits something, when user input is ignored, when to draw weapon trails through the air for attack animations, etc.

Typed Array

A list of variables of a given type to use for various control comparisons. Corresponds directly to the Children of the node. i.e. if Value0 matches the value being compared against, the code will jump to the Element listed under Child0. If no comparison of a lower Child number has evaluated as true, automatically evaluates a Child whose value is "default" as true.[18][19]

BitIndex

Used with BoolSelector Parameters. Also has TypeIndex, which are used to perform the check.

  • 2 - Unknown (believed to check if Link has any armor equipped)[4]
  • 5 - Unknown (believed to check if Link is carrying an object)
  • 15 - Unknown. Appears in Player_WeaponEquipOn after an Attention Selector and a BitIndex 30 check, implying that it has something to do with shields.
  • 17 - Unknown (believed to check whether Link is airborne)
  • 30 - Whether or not Link has a shield equipped. (First Child is False, Second Child is True)[3]
  • 33 - Unknown (believed to check if Link is tired)[5]
  • 36 - Unknown (believed to check if Link is locked onto a target)
  • 37 - Whether IsBlunt is set to true in the equipped weapon’s bgparamlist
  • 38 - Unknown (believed to check if the current weapon is on fire). (First Child is False, Second Child is True)
  • 46 - Unknown (believed to check if Link is crouched)

Ranges

Used with control nodes that perform a Range evaluation. If the value being compared is above the Start value and below the End value, evaluates as true. Otherwise, moves on to the next value. (Unknown what happens if none of the Ranges evaluate to true, presumably game crash)

FrameCtrl

Used with animation nodes. The node itself is required, even if it is empty (i.e. none of the keys are specified)

Key Type Description Default value
Rate float Speed at which to play the animation. Higher numbers are faster. 1.0
StartFrame int - -
EndFrame int - -
LoopStopCount int - -
LoopStopCountRandom int - -
UseGlobalFrame bool - false
ReversePlay bool - false
Connect int The only observed values are 1, 2, and 3. -
AnmLoop int The only observed values are 1 and 2. [20] -

TriggerEvents

Used with Parameter TypeIndex 67. Possibly used with other animation node TypeIndexes, but none have so far been observed. Events which are triggered during this animation.

Key Type Description Default value
TypeIndex int Which type of event to fire. Known events are detailed below -
Frame int Which frame to fire the event on, relative to the frame numbers of the animation. Can be negative. -
Value strRef - -

Known TypeIndex values:

  • 0 - Used to play sound effects during animations. Known to accept any attack or enemy attack sound effect, but probably works with other sound files.[21]
  • 4 - Triggers the animation controller to transition back into the idle stance. The Frame value should be a few before the end of the actual animation, so that the controller can make the blending look natural.[22]
  • 7 - Call AS. Passes the strRef to the ASList to retrieve an AS file and starts evaluating it from Element0.
  • 14 - Seems to indicate an enemy has entered a state of being airborne.
  • 28 - Play audio. Able to play any bfwav file in PlayerVoice.bars.
  • 29 - Seems to determine when a weapon will bind to a bone. [23]


HoldEvents

Used with Parameter TypeIndex 67. Possibly used with other animation node TypeIndexes, but none have so far been observed. States that are entered into while the animation is playing.

Key Type Description Default value
TypeIndex int Which type of event to fire. Known events are detailed below -
StartFrame int Which frame to start the event on, relative to the frame numbers of the animation. Unknown if it can be negative. -
EndFrame int Which frame to end the event on, relative to the frame numbers of the animation. A value of -1 is treated as the ending frame of the animation. -
Value strRef - -

Known TypeIndex values:

  • 0 - Seems to allow Link's attack animations to combo into one another. New attack elements will not combo together if there is no TypeIndex 0 present in the Hold Events.
  • 2 - Seems to determine when some attacks (entries in Player_CutJumpSt and others) will connect with targets. Removing TypeIndex 2 causes animations to play halfway through. TypeIndex 2 also tends to have a StartFrame somewhere near the middle of the animation, and an end frame of -1.0, indicating that it may be responsible for blending certain attack animations into one another, particularly those that loop or combine.
  • 3 - Defines when an attack will deal damage. Value is the damage type. Left: slashing. Stab: piercing. Lower: blunt. [check]
  • 14 - Defines when an animation will block attack damage using Link's equipped shield.
  • 17 - Unknown
  • 22 - Unknown. Found in Link's Player_CutShieldRide.bas animation, and seems to correspond to the air effects under the board, but can't be applied to other attack animations.
  • 25 - Unknown. Appears to have something to do with Bone Control, as it is often observed with the !str32 Value "OnlyEye".
  • 35 - Unknown
  • 45 - Defines when to accept input to start the next attack.
  • 48 - Defines when to display the trails in the air during an attack.
  • 49 - Believed to define the animation frames during which an actor is resistant to knock back. Notably used during animations where the actor leaves the ground and in most cases, active during frames when actor is airborne.
