I really wan't to learn all the trix in maiking realistic animations of weapons like idle, shoot and reload animations...

Does anyone have some good tutorials of weapon models animations in ms3d??

I tried changing the colt reload animation by editing the reloading of "not empty" animation. I really hate when the mantle (the thing on the top of the pistol) automatically drops back when the mag isn't empty yet. So I tried to change every frame that forced the "mantle" to drop back to be in normal position, but it turned out really choppy when seeing the whole process playing. The mantle shivered up and down and I thougt it was hard to have in same position in every frame.
So there must be som easier tricks to use doing that maneuver...

Must ask. When ie. making 5 frames is the only way of doing certain frames by drawing the mouse or you can do that with some numbers and making it work more simple cause I can't make small steps in the frames cause then the animation goes to fast in the end... :(

Plus, how do I convert other animations from other mods into my dod weapons? I want to copy the animation in other words.

Hmm seems that we have only modellers in here.. Too bad cause animating is a big thing I think... :(

So is it possible to attach animations from CoD then how the f**ck do I get that to work? :rolleyes:
