Hello world

[iVolution]

really nice work ther YAC.. keep up the good work. Since I think you are the first one modding the gloves (and maybe the whole suit), did you take a look at how to implement this stuff? Is it easy to replace the rider model/suit to something else just as with the helmets?

Easy to replace the rider : Yes 

Ability to have several riders : Nope (you will have to chose only one, just has mod bikes before beta4) 

Make riders animations : Not very hard to do if you know a little bit about it, but we don't know how .anm are created and exported for the game.

I know Maya can Import/Export animation files in the .anim format, so I guess 3ds Max can do the same, as could do with any professional 3D application I guess.

The problem is that we can't import the .anm since we don't have the original rigged model of the rider, so we have no idea how the animation is managed 


I read somewhere that rFactor uses .anm files too, i'm searching in that way.

Hmm.... I see your point.

@Ricco: Just wondered if this is what you were looking for about rFactor using .anm files for animation. This guy is using "ZModeler" and I noticed in this video that he is importing .anm file to animate this trackside marshall character.
