how do i go about programming a humanoid character to walk. i understand if i use md2 it has frames and i just need to change the model for each frame but this seems like it would take more time than i want to spend. then there is bones. i have no idea how i would go about doing that. i have no experience with bones. is there an example for bones anywhere? better yet does it have a humanoid in it? and what is the best one for a beginner to use? are you able to use a md2 in u3d format?

I tried using bones and Ultimate3d didn't think the anim8or sequence was animated. I used the anim8or Walk tutorial.

I'm pretty sure that the following statement from the help file would explain why you are having all that trouble with animated Anim8or files:
help file
 
Unfortunately the animation support of Ultimate 3D for *.an8 isn't absolutely complete because Steven Glanville (the maker of Anim8or) hasn't documented all chunks that are needed to load scenes from Anim8or file yet.
