Heroes of Might and Magic 6

[shakotay2]

Each curve seems to have 8 slots and inside of them we find the keydata:

Once I've understood what "slot" means I might continue.

I assume the keydata to be translations or rotations of the bones.

Since that nesting goes somewhat over my head I tried what I know better but still no clue which bones this belongs to.
(Simplest guess were: the data blocks (trans/rot) are ordered like the bones are in the smd file.)

Not sure whether it's for two different bones or two slots of the same bone. Probably the latter.
Weird format.

Got it. Each slot stores only a component of the translation/rotation/scaling curves:

Local transformation of bone 10:

Code: Select all

T:   -0.00297    -0.0233    -0.0973
R:   -0.555    -0.0588       0.82      0.127 -> 1
S:          1          1          1

Pretty much like the native format of FBX anim curves.
Conclusion:
slot 0 to 2: curves for tran x/y/z;
slot 3 to 6: curves for quat x/y/z/w;
slot 7: curve for united scale.

Pretty much like the native format of FBX anim curves.

That doesn't mean that FBX anim curves use a similar nesting, do they?

No, just individual curves for x/y/z components.
