Animation munge problem [Solved]

Post by jedimoose32 »

Hi everyone. This issue has been solved. See the bottom of this post for a brief summary of the solution.

I'm making some new animations in XSI. I exported the animation and the basepose following ANDEWEGET's instructions here.
However the animation won't munge properly... here is the ZenAsset.txt from the animation's folder:

Code: Select all

-- Processing directory C:\SWBF2_ModTools\BF2_ModTools\data_CPC\Animations\SoldierAnimationBank\jainasolo
	Processing file basepose.msh, will save in .\\\jainasolo.zaf

*** ERROR: Exiting because of error(s) processing animations.
For the record, the animations were built using fred's bones. Also, I've tried substituting my basepose for a stock one and get the same result. Any ideas?

Edit: I narrowed the problem down to jainasolo_stand_attack3_full.msh. Whenever I move that msh file out of the folder and munge the problem goes away and my zafbin/zaabin/anims files show up normally in the side's munged folder. Could it be that I accidentally keyframed an eff or something?

SOLUTION - Yep, I had accidentally keyed root_l_hand and eff_r_forearm in my animation. Un-keying them solved everything. :)
