Animation Help in MilkShape
by Michael Borba · in General Discussion · 12/03/2007 (9:45 pm) · 6 replies
I followed the animation tutorial perfectly in the the 3D Game Programming All in One By: Kenneth C. Finney Chapter 14. But it doesn't tell me how to use that model instead of the Orc. I'm using Milkshape. Also, it tells me that I have to use the Torque DTS Exporter, but I have the Torque DTS Plus exporter. Any help would be very much appreciated. Help from you guys or a link to a tutorial would be great.

The dts plus exporer is the more up to date of the exporters, with more features, so use that to export. With respects to using your own character what would you like to know?

this ..look at section 4? That should help some?
Also, I purchased the excellent BraveTree: Girl Pack pack - and I gotta tell you, that is a terrific resource for this question. Very worth the money spent, AND you get a useful model to boot. Comes with the Milkshape files and several other formats too. Good tutorial on making your ow and how to access/use the animations as well.

In regard to my own character, I was just wondering how to get my model to use the death animation? I followed the guide that I told you about in my first post and when he dies, he uses his idle animation. Also, what are the steps that I have to go through to successfully use the Torque DTS Exporter and my character correctly?
