[1.12.0.1] EMotionFX Create ActorComponent from C++ and attach *.actor file?

Question

Hi, i try create ActorComponent in game from c++. For create actor i am use

```
entity->CreateComponent("{BDC97E7F-A054-448B-A26F-EA2B5D78E377}"); // ActorComponent UUID
```
But how i can add *.actor file to him ?

In ActorComponent i found LmbrCentral::MeshComponentRequestBus::Handler but SetMesh() is not worked (override without do anything). Have a way on this moment create EMotionFX ActorComponent from c++ in game ? Any help will be nice :)

Hi, @REDACTEDUSER

Unfortunately, there is no native way to set an ActorComponent's actor file at runtime. I've cut a ticket for the animation team to fix this issue.

As a workaround, if you're required to set the actor dynamically at runtime, would it be possible for you to instead create dynamic slices? What are you looking to set up?

Hey there -- much apologies for the delays here. I'm still looking into this and have asked a few peers to assist on this. Hang tight and again, sorry for the delays :(

Answer

It might help to mimic EditorActorComponent and how it treats *m_actorAsset*, but unfortunately, there's no nice way of doing this currently. I've added your particular situation to a new feature request. Thanks!

Thank you Amonster_LMBR. I hope it possible in this version of Lumberyard :)

Hi gFunc, Thank you for answer. No i can't use slices, in my game i trying create fully customizable character: animation, skeleton, mesh and all what can will wish user. And this for all assets, ground (voxel terrain), build any structures. My goal, the game with full control for anything and all game assets are created by the players themselves.
