I was able to spawn a player model as an prop_dynamic, but I cannot get it to animated using

    SetVariantString("testWalkN");
    AcceptEntityInput(EntIndex , "SetAnimation", -1, -1, 0);

Here is the full script (minus the on start)

public Action OnRoundStart(Event event, const char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
    char model[128];
    GetClientModel(1, model, 128);
    
    int EntIndex = CreateEntityByName("prop_dynamic");
    SetEntityModel(EntIndex,model);
    DispatchSpawn(EntIndex);
    SetVariantString("testWalkN");
    AcceptEntityInput(EntIndex , "SetAnimation", -1, -1, 0); 
    
    float hOrigin[3];
    GetClientAbsOrigin(1, hOrigin);
    TeleportEntity(EntIndex, hOrigin, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);  
    PrintToChatAll(model);
}

The model shows up, but it doesn't move. If I use ent_fire on it in game it also doesn't work, although if I set it to ragdoll it does lay flat instead of being in the default position.

Didn't work either, tried before and after dispatch.

OK so an update, I got it to work finally. The thing I am still having an issue with is that the animation I want is technically a combination of sequences (two to be specific). Is there a way to have more than one sequence on a model entity?

Here is the code that worked for me. Mind you like I said it will only do one animation and not a combination of them.

    int EntIndex = CreateEntityByName("prop_dynamic_override");
    DispatchKeyValue(EntIndex, "model", "models/player/custom_player/legacy/ctm_idf.mdl");
    ActivateEntity(EntIndex);
    DispatchSpawn(EntIndex);
    SetVariantString("move_knife_r");
    AcceptEntityInput(EntIndex, "SetAnimation");
    AcceptEntityInput(EntIndex, "Enable");

Anyone know if its possible do add more than one sequence?

isn't that the solution i gave you which you said didn't work?

back to the topic.... you can use different animation ongameframe i guess or a timer to change its animation?

My code activates the entity before its dispatched. Not sure why that made a difference but it did.

Second how do I use more than one animation on the prop? They have to be simultaneous because that is how the animations for the models work apparently. So I need a combination of "move_knife_r" and move_knife_aim_run which creates a running knife animation, why there isn't just a running knife animation I am not sure.
