Well i think i fixed my problem. i think the exporter needs to be set to cyclic and blend to true? hopefully when i am done with thesis i can put together a tutorial on creating a replacement character with maya. it would be cool to be able to give back to this community.

Scratch that. maybe it was the length of the animation or just blend. torque rocks.

Hmmm... oddly enough I also had a problem with animation length before... Regarding a sort of hover animation that was about 120 frames in length. Played in showtool just fine, but when I tried to play it in Torque propper it only played to the first 15 frames or so and then got stuck. Then I reexported it at 60 frames of length (with lots of key framing headaches) and it worked... never really figured out why :/
