You mean yo want to make the hipN not follow the other bones? why would you do that? just animate them as they are.
Why not using a texture material?

I'm sorry If what I say doesn't make any sense. I don't really understand what you want to do, but it sounds as if you are making stuff more complex than it should be.

ok... lemme specify this correctly this time... heh

...
-YRotN
--HipN
---HipN00
----HipSubN00
...

I want to move HipN00 from it's current position back to the origin so I can animate it differently.

and I just want the scythe to appear for now...
I havn't worked on any UV's yet cause I'm not sure exactly how to make it look right >_<

Couldn't you take the HipSubN00, add to parent, so it isn't a child of HipN00, then take the HipN00 and add it to the parent so the HipN doesn't effect it either, and keep doing that until you have it where you want it in the bone tree, so it's say like this
-TopN
--TransN --HipN00
---XRotN
----YRotN
...
Or something like that?

I would have to change the current bone animations to do that,
which would screw up the other Pikachu's...
DP needs a seperate slot with seperate bone names (mostly) to work properly w/o affecting the others.

This is where the clone engine would be really helpfully. I don't know how much you can go without going over the motion file limit, I remember the Donald Duck from Disney having like 9 renamed bones and still working, but DP has more than just 9 renamed bones doesn't it?

yea...
but I've done a base test before porting the scythe model over it, and it worked just fine

I've gotten Pachi to work once too (on my bad SD card) which only had TopN and TransN
(his polygons splatterd when grabbed) lol
^I learned to include HipN from that mistake

he had only 19 bones btw <_<

So what you want Is to give pikachu a scythe? It doesn't sound hard at all. But giving him different animations without screwing the original ones, that sounds hard. the motion file would go above the filesize if you overdo it.

that's why you anymate with a keyframe at every MAJOR curve end
(keep the quality low and the filesize small)

although the scythe is custom obj model which needs a specific material to match...

if I could import the seperate parts directly, that would make things alot easier >_<

NTM I want a secondary model for DP's glow effect (can be easily achieved by copying the eyeYellow material/node

- You know how you'd copy a whole frame and paste it on a different animation, and only say, 3/4ths of the bones reflected the frame you pasted?
Fixed
- You know how you'd click "Remove All" for keyframes on trans/rot/scale/x/y/z and after you saved, you'd get a bunch of NaNs instead?
Fixed
- You know how when you'd click copy bone frame with only rot, trans or scale checked, and it would copy the whole bone frame anyway? Same with paste, cut, clear, for all too, etc?
Fixed
- You know how you'd save a PAT0, and it would just plain screw up somehow?
Fixed
- You know how you'd import a texture before opening the BRRES, and it would go into the wrong folder?
Fixed
- You know how there was no way to get animations out of 3ds max and into Brawlbox as a CHR0?
Fixed

So the copy frame won't pste every bone now? Because I hate that part, it gives a custom animation way too much data, but is fast and simple and is what most people do. Since when has importing animations from 3ds Max every been wanted? Wait maybe I should've say like that, um...ah, what does importing an animation from 3ds Max benefit? unless I'm mistaken does making animations in Brawlbox easier than in 3ds Max? Saving pat0 files has been a problem for me, I hate how tons of times it would turn into a 'null', and I'de have to try tons of times before it would finally save it correctly for me to edit it in the Preview mode. It sounds like you're fixing tons of problems for Brawlbox v0.67, what else do you plan on fixing? What is left to do? xD

Vice Versa?

[BlueBrain]

omg animation importing? EPIC!

[LCCoolJ95]

omg animation importing? EPIC!

what is that?

[SmashClash]

what is that?

Sorry to lay it down harshly, but...
What two words don't you understand?

[Segtendo]

It means exactly what the words say LLCJ.

[namq]

is it possible to import an animation from a gamecube game into 3DS max?

EDIT:

if this were to be possible...  I cannot imagine what would it be to create Tara/Katia from lost kingdoms 1&2 :-) with just maybe 10-15 articles she would be the best PSA/Import ever :-)
