Importing animated models - possible?

I am seeing in the docs that animated FBX is not supported. Is it still the case? Asking because how else would I create AI NPCs (enemies, etc.) or animated weapons or even just props without bringing in animated models. 

  • Importing animated fbx is not available for MHCP members yet. The workaround is to import static meshes, group them and animate them once in the world, using scripting or recording a manual animation.

  • If not, any idea if support for animated skeletal models coming to Worlds any time soon ?

      Ugh, that sounds like an unnecessary hassle. It's basically unrolling your own custom animation system.

      Any idea when we get to enjoy built-in animation support ?
