[Guide] Animation Porting

[Flagg78]

awesome stuff...

[Tigurius]

Updatet first post with grafical thing:
[spoiler]
So I wrote a grafical interface for the animation porting process
You can download it here
Here a little How-To:
First start the animationporter via animporter.exe (windows) or animporter.py (unix).
The interface is partionated the following way:


You now open two models, in this guide model1 is gnoll.m2 and model2 is orcmale.m2.
Then there will appear some information about the bonetree:


So you'll need to find the corresponding bones in each model, insert them into the text fields, and then either port one animation to another (port selected [there is a dropdown menu ]), port all animations, which are the same or add the selected animations from model2 to model1.

Then you'll only need to save model1 and you're done :P[/spoiler]

[Imastupid]

So when I load in model 1 and 2, the only bone tree that shows is model 2's. Model 1 doesn't even have an option to choose an animation until I click "Add animation" I'm so confused.

looking forward ... hope this tool get an 3D (yeah i know tigu you don't want to add but *i just dream*)

Is this program able to change the Stealth and the Vanish animations round?

[Sabelo]

What programs do I need to use? I downloaded latest python thats the only program I have but when I try to OpenModel1 and 2 they dont appear in the window and when I exit the program it says "See the logfile 'C:\Documents and Settings\Oliver\Skrivbord\AnimPorter\dist\animporter.exe.log' for details. But I dont realy understand what the problem is by reading the logfile

Anyways here is the log if somebody wanna help.
