this is my ZenAsset.txt

Code: Select all

	Processing file basepose.msh, will save in .\\\r2d2.zaf

I think that it is correct. after it, I munge the Anims with the munge.bat with this lines:

Code: Select all

@REM munge.bat
@REM Calls %1\munge.bat for all animation subdirectories

@REM soldier animation banks
@call munge_subdir.bat SoldierAnimationBank\r2d2

the bone_rootB bone is that the top bone (parent) of the skeleton hierachy?

Perhaps post as screen shot of the skeleton hierarchy as seen in the xsi explorer.

As well some other info I have found out from doing animation exports, the bone_root doesn't get included in the enveloping process but both it and sometimes the dummyroot (depending on what is being animated unit or vehicle) need to have at least 1 keyframe but if you do frames 0, 1 and the last frame on either transition or rotation it is usual good enough.
