Sure. It’s still hard to hear ‘[…] Quake […] skin […]’ and not confuse it with a Quake skin! I appreciate the clarifications, I’m learning heaps. I think they used Alias PowerAnimator, hence why the actor entities were called ‘alias models’ in the code. Pretty sure it had IK/rigging support in 1995, here’s some bones from 1997: [2019-10-03%2014_18_16-Alias_wavefront%20PowerAnimator%20in%20Game%20Production%20(1997)%20-%20YouTube] uh 90s demo/sales reels for 3d modeling software is a goldmine…
