Abranimations Dance HUD Instructions

This is a personal dance HUD that allows you to add dances and have them play in sequence. You can load your animations and play them straight from the HUDs inventory or you can setup play lists with specific animation lengths and play order. Each notecard can hold up to 12 play lists. Once a play list notecard is loaded the different play lists can be triggered instantly by pressing a button along the top or via a drop down menu.

Please see the full manual for a diagram explanation of the HUD Controls

QUICK STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO LOAD DANCES
1. Drop the Dance HUD on the ground. Do not try and add dances while it is attached to your avatar, SL will not let you unless they are full perms.
2. Right click on the Dance HUD and select edit to view its contents.
3. Drag the animations from your inventory into the dance huds contents.

The Dance HUD will now reset itself loading your animations. You can play them now without setting up any play lists at all! If you wish to set them up in a specific order, give them specific play times or group them into separate play list groups you will need to edit the notecard inside. The default play list notecard loaded is called 'MyPlayList' (you can create other ones as well however)

SETUP A PLAY LIST
1. With your Dance HUD on the ground still, right click on it, select edit and then open the MyPlayList notecard in its inventory.
2. Create a new play list with the line *Playlist=Name of your play list
3. Below this, on separate lines enter the name of the animation and its play length separated by a comma. If you do not enter a time the HUD will assume the dance should play with the huds default animation length.
4. When you have finished setting up your play list save the notecard.
5. When the HUD has reset and loaded your settings the row of buttons on your HUD will light up. Each button is a different color and represents one of your play lists. Clicking the button will instantly change to its respective play list.

INVITE GUEST DANCERS
It is possible to invite other people to dance in sync with you.

To do this click the bottom right button with picture of people dancing on it. This will then display a drop down menu listing avatars near by you can invite. Clicking their names will send them invites, if they accept they will start dancing. You can remove them by clicking the minus sign next to this button. If you wish to do a mass invite go to the options menu (bottom left button) and select 'Invite All'. This will attempt to send invites to the 12 most local dancers.

Please Note: In this edition of our dance hud all dancers will dance in sync with you and have no separate control over their dances. If you wish guest dances to have more control check out our wearable dance machine 'DanceSphere' . This gives guest dancers more control allowing them to pick dances manually etc.

...when setting up your playlist notecards, make sure to always have one named MyPlayList, or the HUD wont load.

Besides that glitch this is a really nice HUD!

PERFECT - Read carefully!

I needed a hud for my martial arts training and synchronize music video making. Some anims are as short as 2 seconds. Some, 30. I wanted to play them in sequence with smooth transitions in between.

AND THIS HUD DOES IT.

It will take a minute of trial and error to set up and manually and counting length of the animations (not a lot of work but you can't be lazy either). But once it's done you'll wish you'd fond this sooner!

I have been using another HUD for YEARS until I found this one and thought, "why not". NO regrets here, safe for not finding it earlier.

And the best part? It gives you the name of what you're dancing/moving, so you don't need to kill yourself wondering which was that dance whose groove fits said music.

By the way - you can rename the HUD. So you can have several in your inventory and find things real fast.

NO I will not teach you. But I'll say - it's perfect. 2023, and it is still perfect.
