Unless there is some external plugin for Milkshape to export Biovision BVH files that I am not aware of (and cannot find on the internet), Milkshape cannot export bvh files, I'm afraid... There seems to be a Blender plugin that should be able to export BVH, while BVH import is default functionality with Blender AFAIK.

edit: from what I gather, the BVH export is part of Blender 2.5+ also, so there should be no need for an external plugin/script. I, however, do not use Blender myself, so I can't say for certain...

Im not 100% sure about milkshape.As hirazi states blender should do it.
And also fragmotion will probably be able to do it

You can download a 7 day trail but to unlock/activate this demo you have to type in the text of the Lord's prayer....strange protection system.I find it a little odd that the devout christians have to try and force their religions down your throat...3D coat is another example ,where your license is not intended for any lewd,sexual or sacriligous works.

go figure.

edit: after Manticor's next post (see below) I tried to restore this post to its former glory (and added the URL tags.
To avoid further confusion I've changed "unlock it" to "unlock/activate this demo.
Sorry, my bad!!! - HB

to moderator :-

the unlock was to open the 7 day trial not to unlock the whole software...maybe I should have used the word "äctivate" instead.
Sorry for the misunderstanding

Moderator edit - I stand corrected, but the term "unlocking" was "slightly" confusing,
sorry for my overactive moderating - HB

Okay, after all this confusion on my part, I've looked at this myself and it seems this software's licensing is even more complex. If you do type in the Lord's Prayer you seem to get a seven days free version, probably unrestricted and if you don't bother with that you get a regular restricted demo. It's a funny gimmick, I'd say...
