I'm having a problem exporting a figure animation in DirectX format. The figure is a single mesh and I followed the tutorial for the ant skeletal animation. The animation is only 25 frames but when I export it I seem to get just one frame of the animation.(whichever frame the figure is posed in when exported)
 If I use seperate objects for the different parts of the body it exports ok and I get the full animation.
 It also exports ok as an MD2 file.
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

            Thanks

Not every program can import DirextX skeletal information/animation. What program were you importing it into?

Richard,
I'm importing it into Blitz3D

             Thanks

Anyone out there know if Blitz3D imports DirectX skeletal animation?

Richard

Yes, Blitz3D import it.

Bazza, have you exported the animation using the context menu?

Bye.

Yes, I,m using the correct menu. I have rotated the model 360 degrees from frames 1 to 24 and left in the original walking animation, when exported I get the rotation but not limb movement. As an experiment I downloaded the ant figure and I get the same results, no limb movement but I can move  the ant in any direction or up and down and when exported thats all I get,  the directional movement
