Animated Music Box - Resource for Modders by Pixelhate.


An animated decorative clutter with a touch of exoticism waiting for being integrated in a mod.

Description
-----------
Once opened a wooden box reveals a Hula girl spinning on a tingling version of Alohaoe.

Two versions are available:
01- When activated, the box will open, the song will be played and the Hula girl will rotate during 20 seconds, then the box will stay open until activated again.
02-The box will close automatically after playing.

When I figure it out, an Havoked version will be added.

A simple activation script calling the AnimGroups is needed.

To be heard, the music needs to be implemented in Geck with the name "PixAlohaoe", without quote.

The object is mesh-mashed and animated in NifSkope. All elements are common to FO3 and FNV, so it's safe to use it there...
All textures used are Vanilla except for the postcard.

Incompatibility
---------------
None.

Known issues/bugs
-----------------
The sound will not be played the first activation, it will only be heard after the second.
Among the two annoyances related to nif sound triggering, I choose that one instead of a doubled sound heard each time, which is quite noticeable (and unpleasant) with tingling sounds over 20 seconds.

Bugs reports are greatly appreciated and rewarded with Kudos.

Installation
------------
Please keep the folder tree of the Data and files names intact. Thank you.
