Description:

i work for a 1 week, about that, for make a favour to a friend, like a robot! -.- that'was.... terrific! argh! terrific! I not wanna more redo a similar mechanic thing!

I imported 1700 XSI files into 3d studio max and converted manually, one by one, into filmbox!

so you can understand my pain, people!

This package contain:

- ALL the humanoid animation of JKA, except BOTH_A1_SPECIAl, because my 3d studio max crash when i try to convert into FBX, and another lot of animations. is not a great damage about the last missing, because are specular animation: some left side animation crash in conversion to FBX, so i have imported only the right side animation. well, is not a disaster i suppose is possible do something like a mirror or a join of animation for rebuild the original left missing animation. Some program allow to combine 2 animation for generate another, so you can resolve that's issue, i am sorry for thats trouble.

However, here yu can have 1700 animation! all kata, sword combat, force power, cinematic animation of default that yu can see on ModelView.

The original animation was maked with shapes, not bones, and the shapes are named with a code called something like DaVinci_NullBones:"nameofbone"

i never understood why raven making that, is not much friendly use...

However. here you have the JKA humanoid animation, NOT the NON humanoid, or droid animation, understood? All converted in Filmbox format.

Filmbox are maked and exported with filmbox plugin of 3d studio max 5 a years ago, when i was working about a game for unity 3d.

that's animation can be used for blender, but i not use much blender so i not know exactly how you can do that, or for unity 3d or every other engine or program that support FBX format.

If yu are making a game on unity3d, you can use the animation package for quickly make the animation of your characters, attack etc etc.

you need simply to put into the folder humanenemy of unity3d all animation and the skeleton.

- Yes, the file contains also the JKA SKELETON.

but is a modified skeleton. all bones are unlinked by the hierarchy. there 's an hierarchy of all shapes, simmetric with the hierarchy of animation fbx files. Every shapes has like parent the bones with the same name.

So in that's skeleton what happen:

1 you can do a rig and weight of your character with my custom skeleton

2: you can use your character into unity3d putting in a folder called with name of NPC and naming the Filmbox exported character with humanenemy.fbx name.

3: if you had put the humanenemy default folder of unity3d with the skeleton, now, the your character can manage the JKA animation into unity engine and can move!

NOTE READ THAT: that can function only if you unlink the XSIsceneroot shapes by the mesh_root helper of jKA skeleton, as i linked into the skeleton. i taked the Xsisceneroot linked to the mesh_root for close the hierarchy, but in unity engine, animation for work need this unlink.

This skeleton WORK ALSO FOR JKA: if you make a character and use that skeleton for weight or right, carcass convert in glm, and you can use however character in game.

Installation: anyone: just put the zip file into the import folder of your engine or graphical program and extract all package. after, import the filmbox file you need.
