Nope you need either bones or dummys which you animate and then link the actual parts to the dummys.

See the simple animation tutorial using dummys here, yes it's for GMAX but apart from the exporter part it is the same. http://www.44090digitalmodels.co.uk/tutorials/gmax2.html

You have to name the dummy Objects? I left mine as I drew them.

You need to stop just assuming things and read the tutorials.

one big problem The Models only flash for a brief second and disappear or only parts show up.
