Exporting Skinned Avatars

When you export the definition of a skinned avatar (avatar_def.mwx), this exports information about all the meshes that compose the character.

The objects to export are:

• A dummy called Anim_ma. The dummy contains the information about every single mesh.

• A light called avatar_Omni01. The light does not contain user-defined properties.
