Hello,

i have a problem with imported, animated DAE-Files from Lightwave. Loading
with the DAE-Parser, replacing materials, controlling animation a.s.o.
works fine BUT i cannot move, rotate or scale the DAE. When i import just a
static DAE-object of my lightwave-scene, all manipulations work as
expected, MD2s also work fine. In lack of other !animated! DAEs i cant
figure out if its a problem of the lightwave exporter. I tried to manually
kill nodes (rotation, position) of several DAE-nodes - no success.

I also tried to put the DAE in a container prior to e.g. rotating it, didnt
help.

I have put up a demoscene with an animated crab to show the problem. There
are 2 sliders which scale / translate the animated DAE together with a
demo-sphere. Sphere and crab are completely separate, sphere works, DAE
doesnt. Well, the DAE seems to scale in one frame but flips back to its
initial state:
