Maya Cryengine Export Issues

MrRstar

I'm having a problem getting the exporter plugin for maya to export .anm files.

I've gone through the documentation and several forum threads. All of those tell me there should have been a .anm file that exports into the folder i selected. All i get is a I_CAF file with the name i set. naturally the engine doesn't recognise that and i can't get anything animated.

I'm using Maya 2013 and the latest version of the sandbox.

What am I missing?

Did you try to export the Animation independently?

There's usually an option that says export ANM with CGAs.

If you did that and you got an i_caf instead, open the engine, go to View: View Pane: Animation Importer and import the i_caf from there.

I did have the ANM with CGA's box checked. and when i went to the Importer (thanks for that tip by the way) it wouldn't find the i_caf. The file types that the importer wanted were just the .chr or .cga files. I did try to import my animated cga file but still nothing.
