I'm too tired for puzzles.
Can you name any other file formats except .x?

Well, I think you're just too lazy for own investigations...

have a look at this side for supported mesh formats and check wich ones supporting bones:

the only formats I'm sure about are .x and .ms3d !!!

.ms3d, .x and .b3d are the only formats that use Bone Animation, I think..

You can also use cal3d, which supports blended bone animations. A word of caution though: Cal3d is not very fast, so you don't want a scene full of cal3d animated models.
