Characters not animating(fixed)

I am trying to add my own characters but its not animating. Even the Advanced Character Kit girl won't animate. I downloaded the TGEA version so it'll use the shaders and then I transfered it over to my project set the spawn up to spawn the casual model and it loads the character and materials just fine, but it won't animate. There doesn't seem to be any errors in the console, just something about validation, how ever it's getting that on the stock models which do animate. So is there any major difference between tgea and torque 3d that i need to change so it will animate or what? any have any ideas?

nevermind i solved it, it was torque 3d's use of singleton instead of datablock. thought i had fixed it but i think i broke while i was fixing it. So i had to undo the other things i had done.
