i know you're all probably getting tired of me, but i need some help:
i tried using DEX to export some unit animations, and when i went to view them, the joints didnt move, the whole model did. then, i tried exporting using the WC3 art tools, and it crashes my viewer. any ideas?

thanks a lot!

EDIT: i just found out that the problem is that DEX doesnt do rotations. does anyone have a solution? or does anyone know of an exporter that DOES export rotations?

thanks a lot!

just don't use the viewer.. use the wc3 preview that is in the art tools. Also, that one TOO tend to crash if you're not using a wc3 material.

that means you need to select those bones, go to animation and make sure the controllers are set to translate: linear and rotate: tcb. scale i believe is bezier if you're using it.
