I think you mean vertex weighting, zany. That means, vertices can belong to more than one bone in the animation and like 60% to one bone, 10% to the next, and 30% to the other. This way animations seem smoother.

If you mean vertex weigthing, this is not possible with RF.
Everyone can see the difficult, but only the wise can see the simple.

yeah thats what i mean, cept blender calls it weight painting. So even if it was all animated in bleder, it still wouldnt work?pity.also, does having more bones slow RF down?
