Animations

[Diego] · 12-08-09, 09:35 AM

Hello all,

Hope somebody can help me. I'm interested in how i can open, edit and
manipulate .anm animation files in Sh3, and .dat animation files in Sh4.
Which software must i use with them? Also i'd like to know how i can
create new animations in those formats.

Thanks you and best wishes for all.

I wish I knew it

... cracking the animations open and creating new ones is key to providing the final touch to SH3/4, specially to port the SH4 crew over to SH3.

Probably someone will be able to suggest what software you need, but if you find something please keep us updated.

Sorry not being able to help, I just wanted to drop two lines to encourage you to keep research on it

First of all, hello all.
Second, many thanks Hitman.
Thrid, i have to tell you that i've discovered you can edit .anm and .dat animation
files with S3D Editor. Last version is 0.99 RC4. When I open them there's a
lot of information and strange numbers, and pointers, and objects and so on, that i dont understand.

Still nothing about what program was used to create them.
Imposible to create animations for SH3/SH4 in that file formats.

Y ahora voy a ver si me tomo un cafetillo y compro tabaco. Las dos
cosas me hacen falta.

Yo también soy español como tú.

Best wishes,

[Diego]
