I'm working through the "Noesis Quick Start: Mod Tool Overview" video but I don't have the Animate menu on my version (downloaded XSI Mod Tool from official site yesterday, 21st Feb with the other necessary files for Crysis editing). Any thoughts?

This and the second video is a must, i am a complete "noob" to the modelling scene but had a copy of Half Life 2 and was eager to make something of my own and see it in a game.

The entire process is explained clearly and coherantly, from start to finish and now i have my very own (yet slightly poor) timebomb in Half Life 2.

I can't thank you guys enough for the excellent tutorial.
