Because VBA is less flexible and not all people have Excel I decided to recreate my macro as a [[Visual_Basic_.NET|VB.NET]] application.
There are quite a number of bugs to smash and data checks to be implemented. Not rushing this. --[[User:Paradox-01|paradox-01]] ([[User talk:Paradox-01|talk]]) 00:12, 25 January 2016 (CET)
: [http://paradox.oni2.net/programs/TRAMOpenBeta.zip Open beta]. Something strange with OBAN going on but the rest should be okay. Set your modes e.g. throw and throw type (fw/bk), then drag and drop the dae.--[[User:Paradox-01|paradox-01]] ([[User talk:Paradox-01|talk]]) 16:57, 7 February 2016 (CET)

Besides that, any attack and non-attack move that isn't a throw can be made in mode "normal animation or attack".

In XSI generated DAE files, the desired x position (analog for y) are inside the child tag of <source id="pelvis_translation_X-anim-output"> whereas only the first value of the array is of actual interest. That's so because the other values are calculated from that values plus the relatives values from the reconverted TRAM*.xml file. That's not elegant but easy as the TRAM holds heights and velocities for each frame. The DAE file contains only keyframes.

In this mode, also the source-target relations (TT teleport and throw distance) can be calculated by reading both DAE files at once.

Remember to update your TRAC file if it doesn't already contain new TRAMs.
