Contributions summary:Emanuele made significant contributions to the Horde3D engine's animation system. Their work included adding functionality to retrieve detailed information (count, time, weight) about animation stages of a model. The changes involved modifying the `egAnimation.cpp`, `Horde3D.cs`, `Horde3D.h`, `egModel.cpp`, `egAnimation.h`, and `egModel.h` files. These modifications suggest an improvement in the engine's ability to handle and expose animation data for game development.
