Animating my robot.

Hmmm going to have to wait on anael for this one. I couldnt get the animation exported eather. But i will say I really like your robot and I learned something new about modeling characters that are going to be animated. Your character is broken up in differant parts I never though about doing it that way. My main characters body was alwys one solid peice and I would have problems with joint folding. Soooo Thanks for showing a differnt way to do that.

What I mean is parenting to bones is not supported by the exporter.

You have to use vertex skinning to attach the vertices to the bone.

not necessary weight paint, use vertex groups, you can have exactly the same result.

For example, the torso of your robot :

1 : Object Modifiers tab > in the Armature modifier, select 'Armature' in the 'Object' field
2 : Object Data tab > add a vertex group with the name of the bone you want to skin the vertex group, here "Bone"
3 : go to edit mode > select all vertices of the torso > clic on 'assign' in the vertex group

do that for every piece of the robot.

Hey, now it's the same problem again. But I have assigned all the meshes and parented the meshes with the bones. So what's wrong this time?

I made an eating-animation.
