MilkShape3D only imports .3ds static meshs only!! No animations!! I talked with mete about this and this is what his explained to me! The .3ds model format.. as far as animations are concerned here, are composed of seperate .3ds model files that make up the model's animations! I have other software I tried.. And when I went to export the model as a .3ds model, I ended up with a folder of sevral .3ds models in it! All thoes .3ds models that where exported in that folder where all the animations!! I finally found out that the .3ds model format wasn't a good model type to work with. You would be much better off ofcourse... Working with the .b3d model format instead!! But I do understand your interest here though! You would like to load the .3ds model into milkshape3D, and then export the model and all animations to the .b3d format for Blitz!! Don't know much about CharacterFX, But Milkshape3D doesn't import animations for the .3ds format.. Sorry!! Only static mesh's...
2) I loaded the model into Milkshape, which reports "30 total frames", but when Milkshape "animates" the model, nothing moves.
