Sir does this mean you can convert them yourself?
Never mind.

Well not quite, but I'm on the way, currently work on the footer, got the header done and also 32 char long names. It's slowly coming together ;)

So yes then?

YES, it was much easier than expected!! After about four hours of work on the exporter, I got anims with rotations to work ingame!! Translations seem to have a bug, I'll try to work that out tomorrow...

Found the error! Almost works perfectly now!!! Just got some small issues with Bip01 (general movements) & timing... should be easy to fix tho

You, sir, are absolutely amazing. I cannot stress how much I look up to you and how much you've single-handedly revolutionized designing for this game. Bravo!

Thanks! :) But I could not have done it without the decoding of the format by harlequinz ego (and possibly bl3nd3r but I'm not sure) and the countless support by VerdantGregor to get me started converting and understand the file structure. ;)

Yeah once it works, anim sets are just two clicks away from ZT2 :P

there is still something difficult about creating new animations, the coding :P

but no doubt this will revolutionize the design ZT2, thanks hendrix, thanks for what you are doing for the community :)

Haha turns out the script was working alright, I had just set the blender animation end too short so it clipped off the end of the anims. Works like a charm now! I'll clean the script tomorrow and maybe release a first version! :)

originally, one_piece

some of the best news i ever heard! once this is finished, we can export an anim to bf format as simple as importing a blend model to a nif file, right? just thinking about that makes my interest of animating came back.

Don't mean to sound ungrateful or stupid but I really don't understand what's going on here. I mean I've no idea what anyone's talking about. I guess this is more for designers because I don't get a lot of the nifskope references and whatever. Mind me everyone.

It's even easier. You simply select "Export BlueFang animation (.bf)" and it exports all action in the blend at once to bf. :D

Yeah it's for designers, to make new animations = movements for stuff in ZT2.

Found a new problem, it doesn't change the blender names of the nodes to nif names, which results in anything that has L & R becoming immobile. Gotta implement that function again...
