Modelling node and animation problem

[Asteroth]

@xanathar I think I'll try to do that. I've worked on this thing for a long time now. When I complete it I think I'll Upload the shieldless skeleton before modding it. I can see a lot of people working with a shield free (and arm down) skeleton as a base for further modding.

If anyone is using 3dsmax I could tidy up my export code and put it up somewhere? It can export anims from max correctly.

@wallasaurus

I for sure would benefit from it as I use 3dsmax!

I think quite a few folks would benefit, especially over time in the coming months

Great, I can lower the shield and move the arm to a reasonably passable position

See here:

However, displaying a lack of foresight, I did not think of the fact that the arm of course stays in that exact same position even
as the skeleton bends forewards. Now I have a skeleton fighting while it's arm has fallen asleep. I may be able to use it for the creature
I want (Pitch black, semi-transparent, black mist particle effect). But it's definately not usable for normal purposes. Hmm maybe for my
creature I will scale it's arm down by 10 to 15% and turn it inward so it will look withered or mutated.

or just make it disappear. Nothing wrong with a one-armed skeleton!
