About animations:
I know we have 2 methods to get position of bone in every frame.
 - method ARMATURESPACE - it is transform bone relative to skeleton
 - method BONESPACE - it is tranform bone relative to bone parent

For transform bone we have:
 - eulers and quaternions - for rotation
 - vectors - for position 
 - matrices - rotation, position and scale in one math object
 
 
 
 I use in most cases matrices 4x4. I try all convert to this matrices.
 How convert:
 posmatrix = convert vector to matrix4x4
 rotmatrix = convert euler to matrix4x4 or convert quaternion to matrix
 Blender use for quaternions: w,x,y,z  like  1,0,0,0
 But when import quat from game we get for this case x,y,z,w : 0,0,0,1, 
 so we need convert gamequat to blenderquat (translate value w to first place)
 
 
 
 I created 3 cases to get position for bone in each frame: (all code i got from actionLib.py from my importers)
 
 1.when bone have only rotation transform:
 
	for n in range(len(actionbone.rotFrameList)): - list of all rotation frames for this bone 
		frame=actionbone.rotFrameList[n] - get frame
		bonematrix=actionbone.rotKeyList[n] - get rotation matrix 4x4 for current frame
		if self.ARMATURESPACE is True: - method
			pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix 
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,[Blender.Object.Pose.ROT],True) - insert key only for rotation
			pose.update() - this command i don't understand what is really make, sometimes animation works without this command
		if self.BONESPACE is True: - method
			if pbone.parent:		
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix*pbone.parent.poseMatrix - multiply bone matrix and parent matrix, when bone has parent
			else:
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,[Blender.Object.Pose.ROT],True)
			pose.update()
 

 2.when bone have only position transform: 
 
	for n in range(len(actionbone.posFrameList)):- list of all position frames for this bone 
		frame=actionbone.posFrameList[n] - get frame
		bonematrix=actionbone.posKeyList[n] - get position matrix 4x4 for current frame
		if self.ARMATURESPACE is True:
			pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,[Blender.Object.Pose.LOC],True)
			pose.update()
		if self.BONESPACE is True:
			if pbone.parent:		
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix*pbone.parent.poseMatrix
			else:
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,[Blender.Object.Pose.LOC],True) - insert key only for position
			pose.update()
			
3.when bone have rotation and position tranform:
	
								
	for n in range(len(actionbone.matrixFrameList)): - list of all position frames for this bone 
		frame=actionbone.matrixFrameList[n] - get frame
		bonematrix=actionbone.matrixKeyList[n]  - get matrix 4x4 (position rotation in one) for current frame
		if self.ARMATURESPACE is True:
			pbone.poseMatrix=skeleton.matrixWorld*bonematrix
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,[Blender.Object.Pose.ROT,Blender.Object.Pose.LOC],True)
			pose.update()
		if self.BONESPACE is True:
			if pbone.parent:		
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix*pbone.parent.poseMatrix - multiply bone matrix and parent matrix, when bone has parent
			else:
				pbone.poseMatrix=bonematrix
			pbone.insertKey(skeleton, 1+frame,\
				[Blender.Object.Pose.ROT,Blender.Object.Pose.LOC],True)
			pose.update() 			

	
It was all for Blender 249.
i don't know how it make with new API in newest versions of Blender.
If you want i can help you with your animation.
