3D player model animation, next problem...

by Wasik Slawomir · in Torque Game Engine · 04/09/2002 (3:21 am) · 2 replies

MilkShape 3D will not be able export .dsq (animation) file. I create my 3D model and export all (model + animations) to .dts file, but I don't know how to play animation from .dts file in Torque engine! Replace Player.cs script file from:

datablock TSShapeConstructor(PlayerDts)
{
baseShape = "./player.dts";
sequence0 = "./player_root.dsq root";
sequence1 = "./player_forward.dsq run";
...
};

to:

datablock TSShapeConstructor(PlayerDts)
{
baseShape = "./player.dts";
sequence0 = "./player_root.dts root"; // change from .dsq to .dts
sequence1 = "./player_forward.dts run"; // chcange from .dsq to .dts
...
};

not work! Whether is possible play animation from .dts file in Torque engine? How? Somebody help me...

You are further than me... how do you get multiple animations in the same DTS? I can only seem to get one and it is always named "ambient" or whatever.

Give me a tip in the right direction and I'll be able to help you with your problem...

I can see one big problem there.

baseShape = "./player.dts";
sequence0 = "./player_root.dts root";

There isn't a file created called player_root.dts.
There is a seperate file called player_root.dsq (when using Max).

I'd like to know how to reference the animation sequence within a .dts object created with MilkShape too.
