Accessing bones(joints) info

Hi,

I would like to use IK (Inverse Kinematics) to control the joints skinned to the mesh.

The idea is controlling a chain connected to a dog where the end effector will be parented or constrained to it(the dog).

The chain is skinned.

So when the dog is moving, the chain will behave naturally.

When loading a b3d skinned mesh model, are the joints' data accessible via the code?

What are the classes I should take a look at?

Thanks.

There are some things possible right now, but to get full access to the animation stuff you should use the new animation system. This is available from SVN (branch/SkinnedMesh). Check the 'Open discussion' forum for this topic.
