Not able to export animations with chicken

Pipeline
1

Hello :wink:

I’m trying to export few animations from Blender using Chicken. Off course, I followed the Chiken doc instructions but when selecting my mesh the animation section panel doesn’t appear on the script exporter panel even when updating the selection.

Tried to export the mesh as it is a play a little with it but for sur the animations are not loaded!

I’m trying with a very basic mesh and very few bones, all is OK within Blender but that animation panel doesn’t appear like in the Chicken doc!!!

I’m using the last updated R81 version from sourcefourge.
Is it also related to the next Panda release ?

Thanks in advance for your support :wink:

did you use the armature-modifier to asign your armature to the mesh?
just asking cause most people are still using the parenting-way (which is not supported by chicken (also mentioned in the chicken manual) and is not recommended anyway).
if both mesh and armture are selected with an armature modifier, the panel should show up. also note: envelopes arent supported either, you have to weight-paint or otherwise asign vertices to the bones.
