Custom Animation Loader (CAL)

Description


Buildings with custom animations! Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!

This mod is required for building assets with custom animations. It sets up and enables the animations of those buildings on level load. Just install and enable the mod and place one of the supported buildings :)

Cool assets with animations! Get them!

Performance

Performance should be excellent!

The mod uses the game's built in high-performance animation system, the same system that is used to animate citizens, zoo animals, the large open-cast mining excavator (Industries DLC), football matches etc.

The animations are not displayed when you zoom out (when the LOD is displayed)

What if the mod breaks? Do I loose my savegame?

No. Buildings will still work as before, just without animations. This is a purely visible mod and it can be disabled at any time!

Compatibility
  • Compatible with Klyte's Loading Screen Mod (fixed for Airports DLC)
  • Compatible with Loading Screen Mod
  • Compatible with Loading Screen Mod Test

Assets not animating? Troubleshooting!
  • Make sure that the mod is installed and enabled in content manager!
  • Some buildings are only animated when they are enabled and have power. It may take a few seconds until the animation starts!

Can you use this mod to create custom animated additive shader props?

its a shame the devs change the code SO MUCH it breaks tons and tons of mods - im going to guess this mod is dead as its not working for me and many others and no updates for a long time

@Talya Exactly. Who we CAN blame way way way harsher than people seem to insist on, is the shitty ass developers who made a skeleton of a game(for how wide and complex they tried to go for that is) and then relied on what is basically just volunteer work to make their game actually fun past 100 hours max vanilla is.

Yes I am aware a small portion of PC players play vanilla or vanilla with a few QoL mods, but we also all are aware I think that it is a small portion of players. Almost everyone has 10 mods and multiple large, game changing mods at minimum.
