I've a question about using entities in dbpro.
When I load the .X model in dbpro and loop it. The model isn't only walking.
He or she is falling, standing up, walking, strafing etc.
How I can seperate those animations?
I only want to let them walk right now.

Well, I always find this a pain myself. Only way I have done it is to loop through the animation frames, and try to find the start and end ranges for each anim. Then just use those ranges for each animation you need. It would be nice if there was a little text file included that has frame ranges listed. Although I am sure that the frames for most TGC products should be listed somewhere.

DVader is right, something like this:

+ Code Snippet

sync on
sync rate 30

character=1
load object "mychar.X",character

animstart=1 `or the start frame of the animation
animend=19  `or the end frame of the animation

do
   f=object frame(character)
   inc f
   if f>animend
      f=animstart
   endif
   set object frame character, f
   sync
loop
