Is that even possible? I heard CMT was doing it, but I may have misinterpreted. If its possible, how?

The Flood combat forms have this, when you shoot off the limbs. I'm not positive how to do it though, it has to do with multiple jms's in the models folder, I think.

oh yeah, thanks. Ill just go look through those tags in Guerilla.

E: Dang, that's a lot of nodes. I cant tell whether it has multiple 'attachments' in the biped tag, or whether the model has two permutations: normal one and a damaged one, and switches from one to the other when shot.

you need more than multiple JMS, the JMS will be differnt Permutation. you also need the Regions so the WHOLE body doesnt become damaged. That odd typing thing within 3dsmax.. that is ment to create regions (never used it myself since I dont care about regions, but thats what your suposto do)

~damaged.JMS will be the damaged area of all regions (so make like 6 regions in each JMS, Head, Body, Each arm, Each Leg) everything within __default (or what ever you name your normal JMS) will be the default form, and after it reaches the damage listed within the collision model, that part will change into the ~damaged.jms of the region that is hurt, etc.

So wait, how do you create different regions? Can you link me to a tut? I couldn't find any...

as I stated, that text thingy.. here is a tut (which explains about all I did in those like 5 words lol)

yeah but kirby how would you export the vertex weights? last i checked the ghost jms script couldn't handle multiple regions

CADs modded one does though. I belive its somewhere on halomaps if you look hard enough.

Yeah, it says it does. Unfortunatlly it (and the animation inporter script) don't work for me in 3ds max 5 (I just get an error message and the script's UI window locks up), any ideas why? (the gbxmodel importer and the non-region versions of the bluestreak .jms exporter work fine).
