Umm, just make your own animations, actually you dont even need to make animations. After explosion, just make the model delete itself and spawn some flood blood along with broken flood parts/debris. Preferably having the flood "blood" being a big explosion.

like I said, you don't need to animate it exploding, in halo 3, its just an effect. Just make it idle for a few frames and name it that specific animation name to allow it to spawn stuff.

As Slappy would say:

Open 3ds max
Import model
Change keyframes to anything you want (or leave it at 100)
Save 3ds max project file
Run CAD animation exporter
Export IDLE animation

You're not even animating it... Like I said, its an idle animation, you dont even move the model, just edit keyframes and save as a JM_ so that you can import from tool.

LOL ? Make a projectile spawned with a marker up to the point where you want it to fall, + garbage and actv (instantly dying biped) and you're done.

Why is this seeming to be so difficult? Model it, make it able to explode (or rig it to the Carrier's anims/markers/whatever), and basically tag work. At least, that's how I see it.

Open 3ds max
Import model
Change keyframes to anything you want (or leave it at 100)
Save 3ds max project file
Run CAD animation exporter
Export IDLE animation

Or make it destructible scenery.

um, its not the animations that spawn the infection forms in the carrier. But within the .biped tag itself. :\

Yeah, the animations only show what it would look like if you were to destroy them.

Are you not going to listen to what me and slappy said?

animations have NOTHING to do with spawning...

its possible without animations. I've done it with a special marine biped that "explodes" releasing several different limbs that are actual enemies (they attack just like the divider parts in dead space) but I lost the tags in my old PC. Your probably doing it wrong.
