I'm trying to animate my map, but I can't find the button to go into animation mode! I did it in gmax, but in 3dsmax I cannot find it! Simple question yes I know. Also, how do you use bones? I want to animate a pole, to turn, but it like, accidentally got attached to the other obejct (it would ahve been later on anyways). I want to use bones to make the thing turn. A tutorial would be helpful.

That you did, i laboured over many hours to produce that.. the weird ball animation in the tutorial I thought was a nice touch though

yea, i had never known about that whole track animation. Then again, i knew nothing about animation period. That is why i asked you to make it.

Ohh, is it now.. I plan on making more actually, i'm thinking about including the process of using skin modifier from a standard biped.
