Animation transfer question

[slawter]

ok... im new to modeling and animation and i want to transfer the box being destroyed animation (wc3 box/crates, thinks its a destructible/doodad) i only want to transfer that animation for the time being. could someone show me how to do it please.

I am currently making quite a few models which involve that animation.

also is it possible to have an alternate death animation for the same model (not morphed) or would i need 2 models.

i have googled animation transfer and looked at tutorials but they tend to be about units rather than destructibles.

also i wouldn't know where to start

+rep to anyone who helps

Credit will be given to anyone who explains who helps or if you do the animation
Thanks


EDIT: or if you want i could send you the template model (unskinned) and you could do it for me (if you want to, and think it would save hassel)

EDIT 2: how do you covert 3ds max 9 files to wc3
Thanks

you dont need to add anything but you might have to dl a couple of stuff and put it into your system32 folder, dont replace anything if it asks you too and dont delete the folder.

what exactly are you trying to acomplish? takeing the animation from the crate?
well the models your useing the animation with need the same bone structure for the animation to work, but if you need i could help ya make a generic death animation, for buildings. or show you how yourself.

currently i just need the the death animation of a crate
