Exporting figure with object
« on: November 23, 2015, 06:02:46 pm »

I assumed it was part of the 3ds save with export object but apparently not.   I want to edit a object/figure in a separate document.  So in other words I want to import everything I rig into my main project.   I have checked the manual and forums-- can't find anything.  Thanks.

 When exporting a figure, (figure mode), Anim8or will ask if you want to export objects as well.
click yes. Make sure, after naming figure, that it is saved as .an8 file type. Not sure why there is option for .3ds, maybe thats coming?, but presently figures must be .an8 file type only. (am pretty sure about that)
 When importing figure into main .an8 file, anim8or will also ask if you would like to import objects as well. Click yes

Thanks.  I don't know how I missed that seeing that I tried 10 different variations of the save  >  ::)
