Ok, i kinda know how to use limbs but i have an premade animation sequence for a moddel but i am stuck as to how rotate one limb while keeping the animation runing, i'm wondering if i'm going to have to make my own animation for it or is there some way to do it.
excode

+ Code Snippet

sync
load object "file.x",1
loop object 1
a = 0
do
  rotate limb 1,4,a
  if upkey() = 1 then a = a + 1
  if downkey() = 1 then a = a -1
  sync
loop

the problem is i see the animation playing but the limb won't rotate! Any help would be apreciated.

im not for sure you can do that... i think it might be just animation... or just limb manipulation... but i havent worked with much animation...

I guess i'll just have to play with it, although one problem i see is that there is a command for setting a keyframe but not a command to tell you what keyframe your on. Anyone else know how do do this?
