Hi 2 All!
I want to apply the same animations to the different characters using the .X format for storing separately skins and animations. And I have some questions:
1. Does the .X format support such possibility
2. Do You know any exporter from 3DS Max or Maya that can separate skeleton and skin
Thanks beforehand.

The X file format is very flexible and you can store anything you want even your own custom data types. Do you use Direct3DX for your meshes and animations I am asking because as far as I know Direct3DX expect that you store the mesh and the animations in the same file. But maybe there is a workaround for this that I don’t know.
Have you try FLEXPORTER http://www.codercorner.com/Flexporter.htm

Yes. There is no problem to use X-meshes, but loading/saving from/to X-files is, especially if they have compressed binary format. Certainly I can write my own loader/saver and so on. But may some alternatively ways be...

No. Thank You very much.
