Hi, I've been looking everywhere but can't find anything. I am using the model "Colonel Z" included with DBPro and there are multiple animations. I cannot figure out when each one starts and ends because there are 153920 frames. I've looked in the help files but theres nothing. Does anyone know or have some kind of documentation that identifies the frames of the animations?

First you load FIRST .x file in your program, then using keyword OBJECT FRAME, which return the integer value print them in your program's loop you can get the start to end frame no.. using
APPEND OBJECT load next .x ,put the next value of frame in
START FRAME attribute , and so on

Thats the thing though, there is 153290 frames in this one .x file. I have loaded it before and changed the frames manually but it's impossible to tell where which one starts and ends.

BTW, can someone please explain Append Object?

Yeah i just looked at the model and your right it does have 153290 frames of animation? My question would be why to, there is absolutly no reason for all those frames for the limited amount of animation in that character at least from what i can see, the same amount of animation could have been done less then 100 frames with the same results/in 2000 frames it only moves a fraction of a inch. Its probablly just a messed up model, you might want to try a different model.

Strange, TGC includes it for us, but we can't use it properly. There must be some kind of conspiracy
