well first off get a 3D Modelling Program and learn how to use it.(Anim8or is a good one and it's free). make and animate your goalie, and then use the LOAD OBJECT, APPEND OBJECT and PLAY OBJECT commands to control him.

Hope this helps.

I've made the the model but I'm stuck on adding bones. I can only build the bones upwards and I cant see the model so I dont know were to put the bones!

you could just use limb animation instead of using bones that's what i do and it's very easy to do.

to live is to suffer, to survive, well, thats to find meaning in the sufferening.....

I guess what HexGear meant by limb animation is moving the limb of your model to animate it, and capturing the frames so you can loop the model if you need to. You'll have to find out which limbs are the hands for instance, and raise them when the goalie jumps. Then save that position for later use. Or you could just create a programs that loads the goalie model and save the frames of animation and then load them in the game. And about the 3D modeling program. I use Caligari Truespace 3.2. I was able to find a version with a free license so you might want to try looking for that if you don't want to spend more money. Well I hope i'm not babbling too much, hope this helps a little.
