Description (last modified by )
Right now if you apply the trans_player_ao_parallax_spec.xml on an animated mesh it instants crash the game or atlas, but only if you have set the material quality to 10. And at least report a nice message to the user that tries to do it, by detecting if there is a <animation> tag in the xml at the same time.

Imo, it would be nice to let artists decide. Some animated meshes are very static, so there's nothing wrong with using an AO map there. I'm thinking f.e. about ships and siege engines.
In any case, it shouldn't crash.

Continue doesn't work since the error is looping. After some time Atlas crashes.

Replying to stanislas69:

I fixed the ROTE models, but If you want to try just download the Ponies Mod, It produce the same message.
I think the reason this wasn't supported on animated meshes is because the mesh shape can change in a way that causes a pre-baked AO map to look terrible. It shouldn't crash though.
