Skin is an additional RenderWare plugin for geometry section. It is used to hold information about skinned model.

numBones (numMatrices)
Number of bones attached to the skin, also the number of inverse matrices (see skinToBoneMatrices).
numUsedBones
Number of bones which influence vertices, that is those bones which have at least a non-zero weight.
maxWeightsPerVertex
Overall number of maximum non-zero weights per vertex.
bonesUsed
Indices list of the significant bones connected to the skin (see numUsedBones).
vertexBoneIndices
Vertex bone indices are represented with 4 bone indices per each vertex.
vertexBoneWeights
Vertex bone weights are represented with RwMatrixWeights structure per each vertex.
skinToBoneMatrices
These are inverse matrices represented with RwMatrix structure.
boneLimit
numMeshes
numRLE
meshBoneRemapIndices
meshBoneRLECount
meshBoneRLE
