Ok i have the full version of rhinoceros, and i've been thinking about 3D games alot laitly. Unfortunatly i don't have a clue as how to animate files in rhino (i don't even think i can) and i was wondering if there was a free program that i could use to animate the files and then turn them into animated .X files. Any comments would be apreciated.

Free? Don't know about that. You can try Blender. That does animation, but it is a little confusing. You should download the Milkshape demo. It is free for a month, and does animation quite well. Then you can think about buying it. I don't think anyone has gotten any animation exported from Anim8or though.

Good Luck

Hmm, I've been having the same problem. Only I've got Truespace. I think Bolt answered the question to another thread of mine in this sector named "Truespace Modelling Issues". Thanks.

I'm afraid we can't download the full version of blender. However, I found an interesting 3D animator at UWdesign. I'll upload the url when I find it - if I ever find it again.
