BREAKDOWNS
SYSTEM:
MODULAR ANIMATION
A system that allows for multiple skeletons to be posed/animated together, despite not being exported together to the display application. All the animation is saved together in one file, and the data for the joints on the separate skeletons are kept together. That way, when the skeletons are added together during run time the animation data is already supplied.
E.G. This badger here, the tail and the ears are seperate skeletons from the main badger itself. This means that the joints in the tail are not exported with the body. But their animation data is saved with the main body's animation.
One animation to rule over several skeletons working in tandem.
