               HOLY MACKEREL!

I can't wait for those mountain goats to try their knock down attacks on mountain climbers!

               After working for over an hour trying to get one to animate correctly, I can safely say...I HATE GOATS - thanks Henesua.

               If you want I'll host a goat mod where you can take out these emotions on them. First finish these goats, and then I'll work on a cathartic experience for you in thanks.

               OK, here's the "goat plan"

1) Take the skin and break it into a skeleton with component parts that match up with the deer components.
2) Import the deer anims and tweak them so the goat actually animates fairly smoothly.
3) Reapply the goat skin to the new skeleton.

EDIT - Breaking the head away from the body fixed the issues with the lower part of the skin, and the stretching of the face. Now I just have to fix the neck stretching and it'll be done.

               I figured it would be a nightmare trying not to add to many bones but still get the complete animations to show through.

               Ok this goat is beyond me. I am not a skinmesh guy and I don't know enough about it to make it look right. Ingame the skin is all distorted and twisted out of shape. I deleted it and I'll take another whack at it this evening.

               All else failing I maybe able to help you out. I know enough to be dangerous. Let me know and good luck.

               I can look at it if you want, I almost done with the gargoyle and I was also going to convert some Draygoth28  models to skinmesh version that use some of biowares basic animations too. I should make PDF tutorial when I get a chance.

               A tutorial would be great.

               Ok I use the goat in it. I start on it this weekend ok?
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_henesua]

               I'd be interested in seeing that tutorial too. I've made skinmeshed critters before but never for NWN.
