Title: Merging two models and keeping animations of both
Post by: Serifaz on August 15, 2011, 07:24:28 am

Hey guys I want to take a part of a model from a creature in the game and merge it with the bloodelf..
I am trying to make it so I can keep both animations from both models... but attatch the one model to the other so they are one... is this possible?

with blender you can merge different parts of different models (i'm working on a nightelf with exposed bones like forsaken)  but you can't edit animation, animimport script works but bugs a lot of models, i don't know if Weight bone copy script of Zim works better
