Hi everyone
I know it is not truly an OpenGL subject ...but as there is lots of
professionals here....
Do you have specials tips to economize memory with animations ?
I export animations from Maya/Okino exporter but even if keeping only
the vertices' changes it use lots of memory ...
So do u got some special packing techniques for animated 3d objects ?
(Ex: Object like an human walking in game )
Thanks

Don't use vertex animation, but apply bones onto your model and
use skinning. The movement of each bone can be efficiently
stored in a B-Spline.
