Problem in using xbuff to export a chain of tank

[yn97]

in blender it shows good and correctly…
but when I export it as a xbuf file and convert it in j3o to play movement animation it just moves in X axis not in its path…

can you help me?

this my raw model file: https://yadi.sk/d/2P6uqzgP3SA5xN
and this is what I do before export: https://yadi.sk/d/HwW9Qii33SA5zd

It’s better if you describe the workflow.

A couple of threads on the topic of xbuf and animations:

[Solved with Xbuf] Animation not playing in JME SDK alpha 4 Scene Composer!

Hi Friends Like my previous post this problem is also a bit complicate and strange to explain. In SDK Alpha 4 : I converted my animated .blend model to .j3o. Animation plays OK inside game with no problem but does not play in SDK scene composer. In SDK Alpha 3 and the before versions it was Playing correctly in SDK scene composer. I know I need to provide more detailed info . (I will play with it and provide a detailed test case) it is late night here and going to You may als…

[SOLVED] XBuf not importing Animation

I am trying to import my model using xbuf, however this leads to an empty AnimControl (so it sees the Armature but not the individual animation, it seems). Is there anything I need to know when exporting xbuf files? I mean blender has multiple ways to handle animations (DopeSheet, Action Editor, NLA Strip) and it’s confusing me, so what should I do? Maybe it’s a bug or is it rather misuse?

[SOLVED] Xbuf does not import JiggleArmature animation properly

Hey @david_bernard_31 I was testing JiggleArmature animation which i mentioned in my other post Using Xbuf importer i am getting different result. Using direct JME blender importer it works OK. See this video : [Test JiggleArmature Add-on in JME using Blender importer and Xbuf importer] Using direct blender importer the cube animation has both bending and stretching but using Xbuf importer cube has only bending but no stretching. Can you please help ? Any way to …

[SOLVED] Animation in Jmonkey is distorted

[image][image] So I load my character animation (bottom picture) which looks fine in Blender into Xbuf loader for JME3 but the animations become very distorted (top picture). I’ve found out that removing bones on the person’s face fixes the problem but I’m still perplexed as to why this happens in the first place. Can someone explain what I’m doing wrong? And yes, the mesh and the armature are at 0,0,0, the scale is 1,1,1, etc.

Im using array modifier to multiply chain and a curve modifier to move chain parts in a path…
and I used to change X Location value in transform panel to move the chain around the curve . It shows correctly in blender but when I push it as a nla strip and export it to .xbuf model , I cant play it in jme…

so I want to know how to do this? curve modifier is not working in xbuf?

and I try to use constraint > Follow Path but just one part of chain will moves and export correctly and I could play it in jme…
I mean using array modifier not effected correct with Follow Path in Constraint.
or tell me how to use arrays and Follow Path?
or is it possible to join two nla strips? with a name? strip1 + strip 2 = strip3 ? and when I set the anim channel to strip3 then plays strp1 and strp2 at the same time?

Blender supports a lot of things that different export formats simply have no concept of. I would expect the array modifier to also not export properly. Typically i would apply all modifiers! Then apply/bake all animations such that they are all in the dope sheet.

can you explain me that how to make a tank chains motion in blender and export it into j3o step by step?
