Making 3d animations move on input in a different applications?

#1

We are making a FPS game for a scool project.
The 3d engine is working and i made a few meshes this is al works good(Exporting it to DirectX etc).

Now we want to make the legs from the bot move when u press arrow up key on your keyboard for example.

I already made the boneā€™s in the model but how do i make the bot move in the program?

We are using UnDelphiX as programming language and 3dstudioMAX as 3dmodeler.

I already searched a lot of pages and worked trough al lot of animation tutorials.

This is one of our guns, its ingame and i donā€™t really have a texture yet so

So the real question is how do we make the bones move by key input form another application?

You are asking about keyframe animation? Iā€™m not familar with UnDelphiX, is this a language or a engine that your using in the progject?

UnDellphiX is the unofficial DelphiX program, DelphiX is Delphi (wich is based on the programmin language Pascal) but with more DirectX capabilities.
