Improve the default Radio Animations with our resource! You're able to assign different animations to different pieces of clothing, making it more immersive instead of the same animation regardless of where your radio actually is.

Installation

Add setr voice_enableRadioAnim 0 to your server.cfg

This WILL NOT work if you are using rp-radio

Download the release of ox_lib (opens in a new tab) from & add it to your server.cfg or resources.cfg BEFORE TAM_BetterRadioAnims

Add ensure TAM_BetterRadioAnims to your server or resources cfg file

Download animations (opens in a new tab) and add to stream folder

If using scully_emotemenu:

Add to scully_emotemenu/custom_emotes.lua inside the Emotes = {} table:

    {
        Label = 'Radio 2',
        Command = 'radio2',
        Animation = 'radio_chatter',
        Dictionary = 'random@arrests',
        Options = {
            Flags = {
                Loop = true,
                Move = true,
            },
        },
    },
    {
        Label = 'Radio Chest',
        Command = 'radiochest',
        Animation = 'chest_mic',
        Dictionary = 'anim@cop_mic_pose_002',
        Options = {
            Flags = {
                Loop = true,
                Move = true,
            },
        },
    },
    {
        Label = 'Earpiece',
        Command = 'earpiece',
        Animation = 'cellphone_call_listen_base',
        Dictionary = 'cellphone@',
        Options = {
            Flags = {
                Loop = true,
                Move = true,
            },
        },
    },

If using rpemotes:

Change config.defaultEmote to wt3 or wt4

Add to rpemotes/client/AnimationListCustom.lua to the CustomDP.Emotes = {} table:

    ["radio2"] = {
        "random@arrests",
        "radio_chatter",
        "Radio 2",
        AnimationOptions = {
            EmoteLoop = true,
            EmoteMoving = true,
        }
    },
    ["radiochest"] = {
        "anim@cop_mic_pose_002",
        "chest_mic",
        "Radio Chest",
        AnimationOptions = {
            EmoteLoop = true,
            EmoteMoving = true,
        }
    },
    ["earpiece"] = {
        "cellphone@",
        "cellphone_call_listen_base",
        "Earpiece",
        AnimationOptions = {
            EmoteLoop = true,
