Thanks again for the replies, Ventilator. I have just ordered the A6 Com upgrade, and received the latest beta in my e-mail, so I hope to check out bones for myself in the next few days provided the order goes through smoothly.

In the meantime, if you would like another model to play around with in the A6 beta other than the Chuacha model, let me know, as I've just prepared this model ready for import into A6 with bones:

 -

It's pretty ugly and low-poly, and the vertex assignments are ugly too, but it should be fine just for testing out bone functions like ent_animate(). I have it in MilkShape ASCII format for anyone who wants to play with bones on a human figure in the new beta (though obviously it means adding animation yourself in MED).

Thanks again,
Keith
