Keyframe help please

[naitvalis]

I need to use the idle animation as ranged animation (for my chaos dreadnought in progress) but when i use m5 keyframe tool and rename the animation to ranged it wont show in game...any help pliz?

[spydermann93]

Are you just copying the idle animation from the dreadnaught and renaming it?

Or is the idle animation from something else?

If it's from the dreadnaught, then it needs a "leave_hand" text key added to it.

If it's from something else, then it will also require any missing bones to be added to the nif.

Ok spidey i tried to copy his own idle animation and rename it to ranged_2 then i opened nifskope and added the leave_hand string in the ni text key extra data, saved the thing, and opened the game but it wont show, there must be something i miss...

hmm... I'll take a look about doing something similar with another mesh and see what I can come up with.
