I have a question that is allmost identical to Rogerant's, but, I may have more demanding interaction needs.
What I'm trying to do: I want to make animations so that 2 characters can fight, but, the react animation is more complex than a simple "I got hit in the face" animation. I want to make one character bear hug another character and then toss the other over his hip (like a belly to belly suplex). For this level of complex interaction, I will NEED to have the "reacting" model in the same modelling editor window to synchronize the animations properly.
So, based on the above, my question is: Can you have 2 models in MED so that you can animate them together? I tried to analyze the above posts to see if they would answer my question, but I didn't follow along good enough I guess.
