1.) I cannot find out how to make a working animation of the spinning helicopter rotor. I tried to make a helicopter model, but whatever i did with the animation inside of 3dsmax, the Meshviewer did not pick up the animation at all.
2.) There seems to be an issue where you can only make an animation that doesn't involve multiple moving objects moving in different ways at the same time. For example, i tried creating a building that would open up at the top and bottom, and the opened parts would spin around in 360° after opening, but this animation was not rendered into the DR2 meshviewer. I don't know any criteria of how complex the animations can be for the meshviewer to allow them.
SIDE NOTE: While applying animations to my models i noticed, that for some reason the meshviewer reads prefire and postfire animations as swapped. Let's say you export the animated model and name it *something*-prefire.xsi, and then assign it to the default model in the meshviewer, create the .god file and put it into the game, it is instead used as the postfire animation. And the other way around as well (postfire named animations are used as prefire animations in-game). I do not know whether this issue is only on my side or if the issue happens with other types of animations.
3.) I can't really create infantry units (because i don't know how the bone systems, or whatever, work), so i stick to making vehicles, but there's only so much that looks decent when your vehicles cannot even rotate their turrets. So i would hope someone here knows how to create weapon nodes and/or rotatable turrets, and if you could teach me the creation of those, it would be hugely appreciated!
