What are you exactly talking about? Importing the grunt bones?

By what I know, Cinema 4D isn't a good program... use maya instead.

The amnesia enemies were, as far as I know, rigged and animated in Maya. So why should there be a Cinema 4D rig available? Of course you can try and import the .dae files to get the mesh and joints. But you'll have to redo the control rig for them if you want to animate it without pulling your hair out...

Depends on what you're doing with it. The models that come with the Amnesia Modding pack are for noncommercial use in Custom Stories. (That's why the folder is called "redist" Wink )

I don't know about Cinema, but as far as I know, Maya is fu**ing complicated.
But, if you learn how to animate in maya, you will have power.

Well, any modeller that wants to animate something for Amnesia should have it, because, as far as I know, Maya is the only program that works efficiently with the animations.

I should really get to it, but... I'm too lazy. Confused

Cinema 4D is easy for newbies , i learned really fast.
But i will get maya and try it , i think .

Maya for games , right? Big Grin

Yea, it's mainly for games. They made the grunt and brute with it. Hell, they made it almost everything with it.
It's also told that they used Blender to make a couple of models.

But, I tried rigging once. I failed. I will try another time.

Keep this in mind: If it's too easy, it won't work. So, Cinema 4D won't work if it's too easy (or at last that's my personal experience).
