Hi guys,
I've made a simple 3d animation with Akeytsu but it seems that it does not work as I am expecting
Here is the Akeytsu setup

Although the animation is playing OK using UU3D:

the AppGameKit does not. Please see the attached .fbx file

The bones are scaled to 0.010. Scaled bones do not work properly in AGK.

Thank you, it is true that I scaled the model with UU3D before the use by the AGK. I'll check ASAP

shame its not OBJ otherwise i would have worked something out

FBX models are human readable json code which is hard to interpret - but maybe sometime in the future

EDIT - Ignore me... Strike a pose....Im thinking of .DAE Collida models

I saved the model without scaling but it does not work again. How did you notice that the bones are scaled?

I'll give a try, but it is strange since I have other FBX files that works fine

I imported it to Blender, and looked at the scale on the bones. Once I applied the scale of the bones, I saw the distorted animation in blender(which is what you also see in AGK).

I've never been able to figure out how to correct the bones once they have been animated out of scale. I always have to redo the animation. Surely, there is a way. I just don't know it.

Thank you Golelorn for the info. Fortunately for me the skeleton and the animation are easy. I'll have it in my mind for more complex models in the future.

Regarding the Akeytsu application for use with the AppGameKit, and after a few tests, I concluded to this: when animate a model do not use the scale tool on bones while animating your model since AppGameKit will ignore such transformations.
If this also applies to Blender3D then I am wondering if this is a AppGameKit bug
PS: Scaling a model with UU3D is not an issue for AGK

It's a little weird. If you use the get animation name/frames or any other functions to get the details of the animation it returns everything correctly.
The only thing it doesn't do is play the animation
An interesting test would be to make the bones rotate (not scale) and see what happens
