FBX and collada support slowing down/speeding up the animations speeds. I have had success with both using SetObjectAnimationSpeed().

If you want to scale the object you need to use SetObjectScalePermanent().

AGK does not support scaled bones(meaning when you import the object it needs to be 1.0 scale to work properly).

@golorn does that mean if you have an animated model ie 3DS and scale everything the same and then export it
everything will work fine in AppGameKit ?

fubarpk,

The bones scale has to be 1.0 when you export them, otherwise your animations will be all whack-a-doo.

Its best to scale it inside AppGameKit, imo.

All my experience is with Blender, btw.

Scaled bones is one of the easiest things to mess up if I am not careful and accidentally start scaling the bones. I think you can only change the bones size in edit mode.

Hi there . As Golelorn commented, the best way is scaling animated objects inside AppGameKit . We have to use SetObjectScalePermanent(my_obj,2,2,2). that will make the object 2 times bigger .

There are probably a few examples that require scaling but for example. How would i do this;
Preferably not with memblocks.

Could be done by translate/moving bones

A shader would be fairly simple.

Color the vertices you want to move in your 3d program. Blue goes up then down, red goes down then up, green wiggles. Or whatever.

In the example below I use the color blue to ensure the bottom of the object doesn't move. You could use the same principle to tell the vertices to move up and down.

The attribute the VS shader needs:
attribute mediump vec3 color;
