Yep, but that is not what I mean. I am more interested in being able to control the animation procedurally (e.g. have the guy look at something, animate the eyes or proper lip syncing to speech). Canned animations are quite easy. > Hmm. Too many things to do. And I also think that cal3d needs to be > redesigned for this.

Cal3D was designed first and foremost for playing and blending of canned key frame animations, games rarely need anything more than that. If it can be redesigned to support procedural animations as special types of the animation class, then many of these things could be done within the existing framework e.g. grasping or procedural walk. In the end, the procedural animation will still only generate postures of the skeleton in the same way as a canned key frame animation.
