Import of animations #3

I saw you had a problem with assinging weight to bones. I might be wrong but. It seem to me that to connect animation and mesh you need a model, a .n3 file. They contain bone names and I think a skeleton and also idxes that match thoese in right nax files. Maybe you wanted to have look if so I send you example files: export_win32.zip

Unfortunately parsing n3 files is somewhat difficult. There is a lot more in them than just the skeleton.

Their general structure is simple enough, but there a re bunch of FourCCs around in various files, which determine successive data type and thus size. It's a lot of work to gather those, it will take a lot of time.

For example: code/render/particles/particlesystemnode.cc code/render/characters/characternode.cc (See the ParseDataTag methods)
