I am trying to find out the easiest way to load many different limbs to hide/unhide whenever the main character equips a certain item. I have modeled many different parts of armor already.
These are the main pieces.
__
|Chest/Arms
|Legs
|Gloves
|Feet
|Head

What would be the easiest way of loading each and being able to animate them all the same way?

create mini 3d cubes in your model that represent the centerpoints.

using glue object to limb allows you to retain all the objects properties.

an exported x file in distinct grouped meshes behave just like limbs

the hand mesh if its keyframed objects would have a mini cube in its center not visible to the eye.

Ok, everything is going good. I have collision, changeable limbs and a Shop System, Bank System, and a few others that are done.
Now I am trying to append one object to another which doesn't seem to be working..
I am appending my Idle.x (5 Frames) to my Walking.x(22 Frames)
I can't see what I am doing wrong.. >.<



All it does is load up the game and then just stops. No error or anything.
(There is more code after the Load Object, but all it is, is a Do|Loop.)
This worked for me in DBClassic, doesn't seem to work now.. grrr
Any help appreciated..
