Aimed Shot FRM for Critters?

[QuantumApprentice]

I've been trying to figure out how to add an aimed shot image to a new FRM, but I can't seem to find anything on the wiki and a search through the forums produces lots of results that don't talk about the aimed shot FRM itself.

Using FrameAnimator 2.7 and editing the critters.lst file I've figured out how to add a new FRM to a critter proto in the Proto Manager, but I can't seem to see how to add a new aimed shot FRM to the critter itself so I can use something new.
Any pointers where I should look or what I should be doing?

You're the one created that page.
For example, if your critter FRM set uses "MYCRITXX", you should name the new aimed shot FRM as MYCRITNA.frm. And in critters.lst, the line for your set should be like this:

152    MYCRIT,151,1

(the first number is the line number in your text editor.)

You also need to set up the hit location text for it in combat.msg:

{2510}{}{text_head}
{2511}{}{text_left_arm}
{2512}{}{text_right_arm}
{2513}{}{text_torso}
{2514}{}{text_right_leg}
{2515}{}{text_left_leg}
{2516}{}{text_eyes}
{2517}{}{text_groin}
{2518}{}{uncalled}

The message numbers are: 1000 + (second parameter in critters.lst) * 10 + (hit location)

Oh is that what they're called? I was searching for "aimed shot" or "called shot" as that's how I've seen people refer to them on the forums.
Huh, that's a weird way to identify the text for aimed shots.

Thanks for the detailed answer! I'll have to add this info to the wiki page

You didn't check the info before dumping them on wiki page?

Heck no...that's a lot of stuff to test and check, TARGET PICTURE is almost at the end of the list, and even then the description is pretty vague and doesn't match the name I had in my head.
Plus, I can always go back and edit it if something is incorrect
