I'm fairly new to machinima-making and I have a couple of questions I would like to ask the community. I'd like to invest a fair amount of time whilst I'm free into making a short movie or what not; just for the pure fun of it.

QUESTIONS:

1. How do I get pedestrians to do certain actions, whilst I do my own.

Example: I use the talking action on my player and get "Joe Smith" to use the talking animation as well.

     2.  How do I get my player or other peds to sit down? I've always seen peds sitting down on benches, though, how?

     3.  If I can get my player to sit down, will I be able to use the talk action, whilst sitting down. I've seen a numerous amount of machinimas do this. but I don't know if it's that complicated to execute or not.

I apologize if I've made numerous grammar mistakes. I've been trying to look up the answers all day and my brain is just completely stressed out right now.

And a big thank you to all who attempt to answer the questions above.

Use simple trainer to get your character to sit, maybe also use multiplayer and have other people "play" the pedestrian part so they can use commands from trainer also. This will make it a lot easier. Here is a link to one of my videos using the sit action etc, is this what you want to do?  (2:03 seating)  https://youtube.com/watch?v=ulzyqOvjJ9Y,.. sorry link seems a bit broken, il pm you it , see if it works.
