How to copy keyframes from one action to other

Question

I would like to know how to copy keyframes from one armature to another. The thing is, I have the same object, the same armature - the same everything - but in diferent blend files. I want to have all the animation in a single blend file. Can any one explain how to do that?

Answer 1

this script will copy the animation data from the active Object to the selected object:

import bpy

active_obj = bpy.context.object
ad = bpy.context.object.animation_data

properties = [p.identifier for p in ad.bl_rna.properties if not p.is_readonly]
objects = [o for o in bpy.context.selected_objects if o.type == active_obj.type]
objects.remove(active_obj)

for obj in objects :
    if obj.animation_data == None :
        obj.animation_data_create()
    ad2 = obj.animation_data

    for prop in properties:
        setattr(ad2, prop, getattr(ad, prop))

here is test run :
