on 17 Feb 2004.| Description: An EXT_Entity can potentially contain multiple sub animations; e.g. multiple skinned meshes mixed with hierarchical animation. Blitz animation functions don't work on these hierarchies, they seem to only update the first anim they find. The B3d Extensions library finds these SubAnims and animates them properly. |
