rigging for entity

[Iron Mike]

Due my character being a robot, a skin modifier would be dumb thing to use. I decided to make my own bones also using IKHsolvers for foot/join usage (nothing is weighted, don't worry), and instead of using aforementioned skin modifier, I decided to link each body part to each respective bone. Is this fine with entity? do I need to do any grouping? I am not familiar with the ways of entity.

You don't need to group anything.

do the ogre imports for entity handle animations? (i wanted to do the .nfo and .key exports that bernie suggested in a different thread, but I couldnt find them, so im going to try ogre if I can.)
