I have recompiled the animation graph (including re-exporting the model from 3ds max), I have gone and also recompiled the collision model and model itself (also re-exported from 3ds max). And when that did not work, i went a deleted all the vehicle inside my .scenario file. But yet not even that worked. And the odd thing is is that i have tried to import 2 vehicles into Sapien and yet....i get this error for both my Mech and my Fighter Jet. The same exact error. I am starting to think something is going wrong with Blitzkrieg when i export the animation graph from 3ds max, even though i downloaded it RIGHT after i installed 3ds max 7. And yes...i am using 3ds max 7 and not 8. So....can someone PLEASE tell me what i am doing wrong, or what is going on to give me this issue? I am getting kinda fed up with this annoying error that i keep getting.

Thanks for any help given

im gonna help a freind out and bump this. good luck videoman! :) (i know this thread is not that old... i just think he should get an awnser soon. im sure others can benefit from help given.... but hes been working on this for a while and he should finally get some awnsers)

That's the thing...i have tried to set it up right (i.e. Linking the markers to the main frame). If that's not right......then what do i do to make it right?

ok.....here's what i should have asked as well :
Nodes=frames

Markers=The Spheres that may say: #driver & #driver camera

Is this correct?

Because is the Markers are the spheres then i linked all of them to the main "frame" object.

Ok..........

I did what you said and it did not work at all. I went and deleted both the the markers and the model it self and with no luck. First i deleted the markers and exported the model and that did not work, then i tried deleting the model as well and that did not work. So now what? Any one know how to fix this issue?

Thanks

For animations, the model is exported with just the nodes, but for the gbxmodel, it's everything.

I tried that. You said "For animations, the model is exported with just the nodes". That's what i did, i exported the model with the nodes and then tried to put into Sapien. And yet i still get the error above.

Anybody going to help me out? I really need help with this issue.
Thanks

Well apparently when i looked at the units section in my Mechs animation file.......there was nothing in it. It was completely blank. So.....what do i put there? How would i figure out what to put there?
