I’m using a really old and heavily modified version of Cal3D, which is an open-source animation system. I used it in some of the internal Spore tools, and I wrote an importer for Maya for it (which I still need to put online), and I’ve extended the file formats in obvious ways (event track, ik markup, etc), and I’m actually going to rewrite the entire thing and open source that because the Cal3D runtime is a heinous mess, but that’s what I’m using right now.

Random question: What file format are you using for your meshes and animation? Is it a common format or have you rolled your own?

Okay, I just installed a plugin that does this. This is my test post to see if it works.

Yep, seems to work, enjoy!

If I may make another suggestion, it would be great if we could get email reminders when someone replies to a comment we make :)

I’m in the same boat. The old flash ones used to work on my phone till they decided that because some users couldn’t see it no mobile users good.

Waiter’s face sort of looks like Matt Smith’s (actor who plays The Doctor in Doctor Who).

Hey thanks. Good ol’ imageready, ah I remember missing that when they got rid of it… :’(

Just discover PS3+ still has animated gif capability though you have to “trick” it to load the gif as a sequence. It seems to work fine after that.

I like the GIFs for single animations

Can’t wait to see how you handled IK for picking a glass from the tray :)

You could still keep animated GIFs but also provide an mp4 version which is playable on most phones and even better try the new tag in HTML5 but I don’t know if you can put it on WordPress or even if there are any phones supporting it yet.
