>>What about compatibility or convertibility with Animation Master on the PC?<< Michael, AM converts each poly into a patch, so loading the Humanoid models directly would result in woefully overcomplex objects, unless they were run through some significant type of optimization beforehand. Hash advises bringing only `simple' polygonal objects into AM for this reason. In addition, you'd have to reconstruct the hierarchy, and wouldn't be able to take advantage of AM's seamless joining of limbs without significant editing of the geometry It is my hope eventually to release some models in AM's native spline format. But don't postpone any of your projects in anticipation of this. Anything else? -Tim
