A script to trigger a specific animation in nearby peds

NotOfTheWorld

I know it's possible, the emotes mod and join me mod basically do what I'm talking about.

Code:
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.E)
{

Native.Function.Call(Native.Hash.REQUEST_ANIM_DICT, "anim_dict_here");
Wait(50);
Ped[] NearbyPeds = World.GetNearbyPeds(Game.Player.Character,20f);
foreach(Ped p in NearbyPeds)
{
p.Task.ClearAllTasks();
p.Task.PlayAnimation(p,"ANIM_NAME","ANIM_DICT",8.0 , 8.0*-1 , -1 , 0 , 0 , false, false, false);
}

}

A lot of the variables in the PlayAnimation command are unknown, so if you want to figure out the different animation speeds and types, here's a link to GTA X Scripting

@Kwang4 Thanks for the input! But I tried this and couldn't get it to work. Not sure what's wrong. This is the animation I'd like the nearby ped to play, and here's is exactly how I have the code, in a .cs file:

using GTA;
using GTA.Math;
using System;
using GTA.Native;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public

if (e.KeyCode == Keys.E)
{

Native.Function.Call(Native.Hash.REQUEST_ANIM_DICT, "missprologueig_1");
Wait(50);
Ped[] NearbyPeds = World.GetNearbyPeds(Game.Player.Character,20f);
for each(Ped p in NearbyPeds)
{
p.Task.ClearAllTasks();
p.Task.PlayAnimation(p,"idle_loop_malehostage02","missprologueig_1",8.0 , 8.0*-1 , -1 , 0 , 0 , false, false, false);
}

}

It would be best to compile the code (such as with Visual Studio) so that you can know if it is correct C# code or not before trying it out in GTA. That is not correct C# code. Here is a fixed up version, which I have no idea if works or not:

using GTA;
using GTA.Math;
using GTA.Native;
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public class AnimMod : Script
{
	public AnimMod()
	{
		KeyDown += AnimMod_KeyDown;
	}
	
	private void AnimMod_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
	{
		if (e.KeyCode == Keys.E)
		{
			Native.Function.Call(Native.Hash.REQUEST_ANIM_DICT, "missprologueig_1");
			
			Wait(50);
			
			Ped[] NearbyPeds = World.GetNearbyPeds(Game.Player.Character, 20f);
			
			foreach (Ped p in NearbyPeds)
			{
				p.Task.ClearAllTasks();
				p.Task.PlayAnimation(p, "idle_loop_malehostage02", "missprologueig_1", 8.0, 8.0 * -1, -1, 0, 0, false, false, false);
			}
		}
	}
}
