Where should i post in blizzart forum, in art tools part? can i linked your post?

@println: Go

Hi Print, i ve got a issue, how this addon is considered by Blizzard? it s tolerating to make model with?

@println: Go

Thanks, it s ok now, i understand why my meshs were deformed too.

@println: Go

Actually i found a way to make many animation in ik rig, then bake like you told me, cause when i baked the walk animation for exemple, and if i had made another animation like attack, it breaked it. Therefor i made a blend file for each animation and baked it then in a another blend file, i appended the armature and copied the keys. This method works and i can take only the bones that i need, cause for the game, some bones that are used for ik chain are not useful and i don't know if it's heavy to had many bones. To improve the addon it could be good to import only the selected bones or some bones in a layer, but maybe it s not the more important because it s possible to do otherwise.

I tried the export just with a simple model i made, that what i noticed : - the rotation for bone hand and foot are not correct, in some other part fo the body too. - some meshs are deformed (on the knee and other...)

I tried to bake before the export, and the FK animation look the IK animation but when i export the m3 file do not correspond to the IK animation anymore. I looked at the fcurve and it s seem to be the same, so i don t know ... i let you the blend if you want to look at the test model.

@println: Go

Ok i'll try that. Sorry I express myself badly, i wanted to say : can i make a mesh in edit mode and modeling (for exemple hairs like goku) and make it a ribbon? but i think it s not possilble like this. I know i can make that with keys animation (like the hair KerriganGhost model) but i wanted live animation. Is there a way to put a force on a modeling mesh and simulate ribbon? cause cloth or rigid bodies modifier don t work.

I think i m not very gifted for programming language i m more a artist. Thank for your reply and your work on the m3 addon.

@println: Go

I ve got some issues, are there meshs for m3 ribbon, can i apply a texture with uv, can i see the render in blender? How m3 rigid bodies and m3 physic shape can be used? m3 physic mesh is used with m3 with physic shape?

@println: Go

Cool

@println: Go

Hi, animation are not imported anymore, when i create animation (toggle + >Walk). Then i exported, there are error messages. However i found a way to exporte, importing first a m3 model then deleting it, after i make my mesh and add animation and the animation can be exported. It would be cool the bug is fixed.

@println: Go

That's great, thanks.

@println: Go

Ok, Thanks for your work and investment.

@println: Go

Thanks for the trick. Here what i mean, when i save a model with many sequences animation and close blender and reopen, i can only play the animations where i saved. The message console :

Warning: The action AttackArmature was referenced by name but does no longer exi st Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_Armature Object was referenced by name but does no longer exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_MeshObject.002 was referenced by name but does no longer exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_MeshObject.001 was referenced by name but does no longer exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_MeshObject was referenced by name but does no l onger exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_Lamp was referenced by name but does no longer exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_Camera was referenced by name but does no longe r exist Warning: The action DEFAULTS_FOR_Scene was referenced by name but does no longer exist

Is it the same for you? or it s something i haven't done well?

@println: Go

I did a custom model with the marine animation and it works. I changed only the diffuse texture and i adjusted the bones in the edit mode to a new mesh. But i had problems too. I tried to import models but some don't appear : the dark templar m3 units mesh doesn't display when import, nothing appear for wow m3 models too. Only two weigh to a vertex for export work?, i wish make a custom animation but it s not easy in FK. Did some people try to animate with IK, and bake them? I've found this : http://www.harkyman.com/2010/11/26/recording-ik-movement-into-fk-bones/ , but it did not work, cause my knowledge is limited in Blender probably. And when i save in Blender, only the present animation is saved, the other animations don't work if i close blender and open the file later, is what I have to work only with the m3 I exported?

@println: Go

It works, thank you. I'll try all that. Then if I can make a character I'll post.

@println: Go

Hello, first thanks for this tool. I would like to create a custom character, with animations. But I have some problems, i haven't the button "+" in the "M3 Animation Sequences" panel and somes are missing too in the other panels. Have you an idea of the problem?
