Model problem: Animation's Skeleton missing

Hi!
I've made my first model (Woho!). After many issues it exports alright. I've also made its first animation (idle.dae). However when I import that animation to modelview it is just a "ball" / my model made into a ball of mesh.

Now I noticed it has no skeleton! My model without animations has skeleton, while the animation has none.

Why is it so?

And how do you exit modelview? Big Grin

RE: Model problem: Animation's Skeleton missing

Hey, easy question first ^^
esc quit modelviewer
that the ball looked like a ball of mesh should be a prob with subdivision, try to disable it and only smooth faces
hmm with you skeleton, dont know your model, i only see in the pic one bone in the mid?!?!?

RE: Model problem: Animation's Skeleton missing

Yes, it only exports one bone in the mid! And that bone "drags" the whole mesh into a ball - as the mesh is bound to the skeleton.

I think it has to do with my export settings. Been playing around with them, exporting .daes of different size. One animation worked when opened directly from modelview but when I opened the original model and added the animation it became a ball again.
Lol. I got it to work - and I don't even remember the export settings on the animation Sad Bah. Will have to repeat the whole process on the next model.

hmm okay, one thing dont rely on the modelviewer, i could not open my rigged char with animations in modelviewer. I had to set all the animations as the original in the modeleditor, after that i can open my char in the modelviewer. if all works in modeleditor so it should working in the game.
