I myself call it limb animation, it was used in the time of older 3D games, up to GTA3.

Dark MATTER used limb animations for its objects, and they were made in TrueSpace, I wouldn't go into the versions you pay for, as you will only need the free version, trueSpace 3.2, has no specific website, search it and download it, twas what I did originally

well nothing else springs to mind, vertex animations would be another type, but doubt DBC could handle that, but I don't think characters could be animated that way, and TrueSpace handles them, you can make limbs look good with practice

okay thanks. man that sucks. does db pro support bone animation, that you can just export from milkshape3d without any problems cause i have milkshape and i already can animate with bones so it might just be easier to get that.

btw thanks for all your help so far.

edit: i have also heard about spline animation do you know what that is. thanks

i can't explain spline animation effectively, so i wont try...

but dbp supports boned animations... and so long as its all good within milkshape, it should be the same in dbp.


limbed animations can look good, but it takes a lot of planning to do effectively.

I don't have a sig, live with it.

can be a pain in the but, these things, Spline animation isn't something you use in games, well I don't think so, think of a vine plant rapidly growing, that would be done with spline animation, and text writing itself.

cry, it gets it off of your chest

personally, I'd keep coding and worry bout major models later, my project is so far just a modelled background with cubes as characters, haven't got around to modelling the characters really

Learn to limb animate properly, then if it runs well in your 3D app, then in theory, it ready, export it, load it into DBC and apply a loop animation to see if it works, and if it does, then your app isn't being pure evil, then you can really treat them like Dark Matter models now, and then you should be sorted, I've never had my own animated objects in DBC or DBP yet

I don't think it's funny signing your name as "Myra Hindley" even if spelt incorrectly. It's offensive and disgusting.

Myra Hindley was one of the two people responsible for the Murders on the moors. I'm sorry that I insulted you I thought you were being, well sick, never mind. Sorry again.
