Hope this is the right forum for this.

So my friend is making models for me with Blender for a game. Simple question. How do you give a mesh multiple animation sets in Blender?

I'm using directx so the file with be exported as a .x file

The tutorials for animation with .x file mention animation sets so I'm sure it can be done. The question is... how?

In blender you can manage different animations in actions. On the other hand, when you like to keep it easy, you could assign different animations to certain frame ranges,i.e. 1-100 walking, 101-200 running etc.

Then how would I specify which frames to use in my program? On the x file animation tutorial on this site it talks about selecting tracks. My friend can assign different animations to different frames but I don't know how I would shuffle through specific ones for specific actions
