Changing default animations
Hey there...

If I were to modifly, say the walk.anim file... and save it as walk2.anim

How can I have 1 mesh use walk.anim and another use walk2.anim?

ie: is there a way to override or specify what animations a chr derrived class should use?

Hi,

It's already available in the latest engine version, as well as importing multiple animations from a single .x file.

Re: Changing default animations
You rock dude... I'll be working with this very shortly...

Quick question ( away from documentation atm )...

How do I tell a chr to play a particular animation? ( If I wanted to have it play the swing.anim or somesuch)

I know there are "action" constants that are linked to some standard anims (walk, etc..)

And I know there is an animate function on the skeleton... Hmm. I guess I would just use the animate function of the chr's skeleton... Is that correct?

Re: Changing default animations
there is a tutorial covering that kind of animations
probably named "game basics/character animations"
using "Motion" class
